"Kyle and his team were wonderful! Everyone was professional, friendly, skilled, and responsible. It was easy to arrange dates for the work, and every question received a quick response. We were especially pleased to discover that environmentally-friendly baking soda was used for the "blasting/scrubbing" Of the beams in the basement. We have the highest praise for Kyle and his team - greatly appreciate the work they did in helping us!"

"Let me start by saying that having this water treatment system installed was the best thing we ever did! After Aerus Electrolux tested our water right in front of our own eyes, it was perfectly obvious that the well water, that smelled like sulfur most of the year, that we had been using for the past 15 years was full of iron, magnesium and calcium. I would like to give props to Mr. Chris Dow, the Aerus Electrolux Representative, for doing such an outstanding job of performing the test and thoroughly explaining how the system actually works and why it undoubtedly will make our lives much healthier. I am impressed by the fact that not only was this system installed expeditiously, Aerus Electrolux will send a representative to troubleshoot and repair the system if necessary should we run into any problems, anytime; all we have to do is contact them and it's done! And this will continue as long as the system is existing, even when we are long gone! In my opinion, just the service they provide gives us peace of mind; all I need to know is how to use the phone!"

"Jeremiah came out and tested the air and moisture and other items to determine if I had mold in my basement. After getting the test results there was evidence of mold and he recommended a company that provides a do it yourself kit for mold remediation. (Not cheap). After getting the items and realizing that there was more work, it would have been better for me to let my insurance company handle this as I do have coverage for mold/fungi. Though having a professional do the work is expensive, from what Jeremiah mentioned, it does not guarantee that the work will be complete or the source of the problem taken care of. He mentioned most companies will take care of the mold but not necessarily the cause of the mold. For this I would have to contact another company."

"I've used The Dump Guy twice now. This last time, I needed our basement cleaned out so we could have a leaking oil tank removed. They gave us an estimate of $1,500 and came out the same week. I know the job was bigger than they expected but the crew stayed at it. Among other things, they hauled out an old stand-up freezer and two large, metal desks. When they were done, I asked how much I owed them and Jason stuck to the estimate. I'll definitely hire The Dump Guy again because they are reliable, honest, and easy to work with."

Biohazard Remediation questions, answered by experts

Several factors contribute to the persistent growth of mold in vents, with excess moisture being the most common culprit. Consistent mold formation in vents indicates an ongoing moisture problem within the HVAC system or its surroundings, likely caused by condensation on cool surfaces in areas with high humidity. Moisture accumulation can also result from leaks in ductwork, inadequate ventilation, or insufficient insulation, creating an environment favorable for mold growth. Regular inspections, addressing potential sources of moisture, maintaining proper ventilation, and routine HVAC maintenance can help prevent the recurrence of mold in vents. If the issue persists, seek professional assistance to identify and rectify the underlying problems.

Water damage always poses a primary risk of mold and mildew, but growth is not guaranteed. Whether mold develops depends on several factors, including the severity of the water damage and how quickly the area is addressed. To prevent mold, you must act fast—ideally within the first 24 hours. The process involves cleaning up all standing water and thoroughly drying the affected area. If the damage is extensive, the cleanup was delayed, or you suspect mold might be present, it is safest to assume it has grown and contact a professional mold inspector or removal expert to assess the situation.

Condensation in your dryer can create a dangerous situation. It can cause lint to clog up the venting components of the system. If you have a gas-powered dryer, excessive lint buildup can create the potential for carbon dioxide buildup within your home. Clogged vent systems can also be a severe fire hazard. 

The spread of wood rot results in a physical breakdown of the wood’s cellulose and lignin, causing it to become spongy or brittle. This can lead to structural damage. Water won’t damage the physical structure of the wood, while mold can eat away at the material and cause structural damage over a much longer timeframe. When further considering water damage versus mold versus wood rot, all three issues can create a musty or damp odor in the area. All three can also cause discoloration of the wood.

The primary difference is that black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) is considered toxic and more dangerous than regular mold. It can produce harmful chemicals called mycotoxins, which may lead to severe health issues like respiratory problems, skin irritation, headaches, and other long-term complications. While regular mold is rarely toxic, it can still cause allergic reactions and respiratory irritation. Visually, black mold often appears dark—green, gray, brown, or black—with a fuzzy texture, whereas regular mold can be almost any color. Black mold is less common and typically grows in areas with severe water damage. Regardless of the type, you should not ignore any mold infestation in your home.
