"I had an excellent experience with this mold remediation company. Bob truly went above and beyond my expectations. He was not only extremely professional and knowledgeable but also very personable, which made the entire process much more comfortable. What really stood out was his attention to detail. After completing the remediation, he even took the time to clean up my basement area, leaving it better than he found it. That level of care and dedication is hard to come by. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of mold remediation services. You can trust that you’ll be in great hands!"

"Dealing with mold in your home is stressful, but working with K & E was the absolute best decision we could have made. From the minute they walked in, Dan put us completely at ease. They didn't just clear out the mold they took the time to explain the whole process, kept everything impeccably clean, and treated our home with real care. You can tell they actually care about the people they?re helping. I can finally breathe easy in my home again. Highly, highly recommend!""

"Very well. Will serviced the house. He suspected there could be mold in the ducts, because there wasn't any in the furnace itself. I had burning sensations in my eyes and throat and that usually is generated by mold. The burning continues, so I'm not sure there was a mold issue, but I'm glad I had the service done just in case there was. Will is very professional. Explained everything that he was going to do. He left the house in the same condition as when he arrived. Also, he was quick to say that if I had any problems in the future, he would be glad to come back."

"This is not a mold remediation company. When you hire this company, you are simply getting a mold test. Be specific when you explain your problem and what you are looking to get done. The mold technician was in and out in 20 minutes. He took an air sample and one swab, that s it. For the price of $299. Once you get the results of your mold test, they refer you to a company that is in the business of selling mold remediation products. Originally as much as $1600 for mold bombs, sprays and commercial graded air scrubber. I negotiated down to $1195. Then settled on only what I needed. Know what you want, do your homework before buying products you do not need."

"Job was done very efficiently and professionally. Despite the storms in and around the area, they were quick to respond to our needs and do what needed to be done to clear off our deck and remove the fallen tree branches and debris. Would use them again and recommend to others."

"Chris was WONDERFUL! I just purchased a home and wanted to have a mold inspection done for peace of mind. Chris took time to explain the process and put my fears at ease with his vast knowledge. He reviewed the test results with me prior to closing which gave me the peace of mind I needed to confirm I was making a good purchase and great investment. I highly recommend Mid Atlantic Commercial Residential Real Estate Solutions. VERY PROFESSIONAL AND COURTEOUS!!"

Mold Testing and Remediation FAQs, answered by experts

Before you start removing mold, turn off the furnace. Clean away any visible mold from accessible areas using a mixture of water and mild detergent. Change air filters and check for moisture sources like leaks. If the problem persists or it's widespread, hire a local HVAC company for professional cleaning.

Many types of mold spores and fungi spores are constantly present in the air, but they need a friendly surface and moisture to grow. Should some of these spores land on paper or wood with significant moisture present—such as drywall with a paper cover that is soaking up water from a leak—mold or fungi could begin growing. Dampness from leaky pipes, condensation on windows, leaks in a roof, flooding in a basement, or high, prolonged humidity in a small area all can create the excess moisture that mold and fungi need to grow in your home.

Mold grows quickly. It typically begins to grow on drywall about 24 hours after exposure to moisture or humidity. Drywall is a porous material, which makes it particularly hospitable to mold growth. 

While mold growth begins after just a day or so, it can take a few weeks before the evidence becomes visible. Mold spores will typically appear on the drywall surface within three weeks of growth starting.

Musty smells often indicate the presence of mold, which can lead to various health risks. Inhalation of mold spores may trigger allergic reactions, causing sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose, and itchy or watery eyes. People who suffer from mold allergies or asthma may experience more severe respiratory problems. Certain types of mold, like black mold, can lead to mycotoxicosis, a condition associated with serious health effects like respiratory problems, fatigue, headaches, and skin irritation if exposure continues for an extended period. Those with weakened immune systems, respiratory problems, or allergies may be more vulnerable to the health risks that come with musty smells. Therefore, it is crucial to address and eliminate the source of the odor promptly.

While a professional can always help, there are some common plumbing culprits you can check yourself to see if you can find the sewer gas smell. For example, you should check your water traps, sometimes called P-traps and S-traps, which are located under sink, shower, and laundry drains. The wax ring beneath the base of your toilet, which creates a watertight seal with the plumbing, could also have gone bad.
