Mold Bros is a local family business, we offer something most of these big businesses cannot: personal, flexible and direct service. There is no 1-800 number to call, no call center, just direct contact with the people who will be helping you remove harmful mold from your home. Being in the northeast we know that our environment is a breeding ground for mold. With a lack of solid options, most companies offer lackluster service and unreasonable prices. We believe that taking care of our customers includes their wallets.

"They are top quality .They were wonderful, professional, timely and did a great job."

"When I called the mold company for my lab results. They gave me a person named Ricardo Echeverria, Senior Mold Analyst to call for the results. He verbally told me that the cause was something like a remodel, construction going on. There was a red flag for a VOC called Methylene Chloride--Banned outdated paint. I sent Ricardo and email asking if I can have a report of what he said in writing. I only received a contaminants list. I said, I am not a scientist and do not understand the lab results.I never received a response back from him. I called Jeremiah Bancroft a few times and asked for a written explanation of the causes. He could not supply me with a written explanation because it was a legal issue. I asked for his help. I need your help. Jeremiah said, go to your primary care for a doctors note. That was the last time I spoke to him on September 19, 2024"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Yes, if there is mold in your drywall mud and you then use it to build walls in your house—or if mold develops in your set drywall, like it can in hot and humid areas—it can lead to illness. Mold in your drywall (or other parts of your home) can make existing respiratory conditions or allergies worse, and the effect can be more intense for those who have existing health issues or compromised immune systems.

Wood rot is not as dangerous as black mold. When comparing toxic black mold versus wood rot, black mold is a far more dangerous type of fungus for your health. When someone inhales black mold spores, it can cause severe respiratory issues. Although some people are sensitive to the spores found with wood rot, most people do not react if they inhale wood rot spores.

Several factors affect the color of mold, including humidity levels, age of the mold, and amount of light it receives. A patch of mold that starts out green may darken and turn black as it ages. A species of mold may be green if growing in one environment, but be black in another environment. Color usually isn't a reliable way to determine mold species or risk.

A mold inspection, especially in homes with a history of water damage or high humidity, is critical for maintaining a healthy living space. Mold can cause respiratory issues, allergic reactions, and other health problems, particularly for individuals with asthma or weakened immune systems. Unchecked mold growth can lead to structural damage, resulting in costly repairs. A thorough inspection identifies visible mold and uncovers hidden sources to allow for timely remediation, preventing further damage and health risks.

Bad odors and actual, visible mold aren’t the only ways to tell if your floorboards are suffering from too much moisture. Everything from high humidity to direct contact with water can cause wood to buckle, warp, peel, and discolor. Spotting one or more of these signs could be a clue that you’re dealing with mold.
