Valley Mold Services provides extremely thorough, health-centric mold inspections and mold remediation consultation services. --INSPECTIONS-- Mold inspections are performed by an inspector certified by the National Organization of Remediators and Mold Inspectors (NORMI). This entails a visual inspection accompanied by thermal imaging, moisture meter readings, and mold and mycotoxin test samples as needed. We recommend whole home/building inspections around $500 depending on square footage. These take about 4 hours by 1-2 inspectors. Brief "spot checks" for a specific leak, water event, or potential mold spot are around $200. --REMEDIATION CONSULTATION SERVICES-- Valley Mold Services does NOT provide physical mold remediation services directly but we are NORMI-certified as remediator to help you navigate all the details of remediation including remediation protocols and ensuring it's done to industry standards (whether by a remediation company or yourself as appropriate).

"Valley Mold Services came in and did a thorough inspection throughout our whole house. Sarah addressed any and all areas of concern, we very knowledgeable and took the time to answer all our questions. She walked us through the whole process and gave us honest feedback about our mold inspection. We received test results within days and the results were given to us in a way that was easy for us to understand "

Arko Exteriors has built its reputation on customer satisfaction. Our commitment to our customers is the cornerstone of our success. We provide professional, accurate and timely inspections to determine damage and avoid frivolous claims. We work hand in hand with our customers through the entire insurance claim process. Dealing with insurance claims can be a major hassle. Our experienced staff have built relationships with and frequently work with insurance companies. Our industry knowledge and insight on storm damage allows us to work directly with most all insurance companies. That means we’ll complete your roof repair or replacement while also keeping the entire process as smooth and simple as possible. Superior and talented craftsmen are the backbone of our company, and we’re always committed to the satisfaction of our customers. An attention to detail and thorough workmanship is what we pride ourselves on. Whether it’s having all the angles straight or just having all the light bulbs on and working, every job is equally important to us. We guarantee it!

"Our experience with Nic at Arko was top notch. He was personable, friendly and listened to what we wanted to have completed on our project. Throughout the project, he communicated well and often. Overall, we are satisfied with the final outcome of our roof being redone. The 5 stars is for Nic, I wish I could rate different aspects of our experience differently. For the crew, I'd probably give 2 to 3 stars. They laid tarps out around our house and garage, however it was windy that day and they didn't weigh them down, so they blew around and a lot of tear-off material ended up in our landscaping rock, which goes all around the house. We picked up over 200 nails when they were all done with their cleanup, which included using a leaf blower to blow off patio and driveway and blew the nails and slate into the rock, which pretty much buried the nails in the rocks since the rocks were blown around as well. When we called Nic about this, he sent Wyatt to come out with a magnet and was very thorough in the grass areas around house and found quite a few more nails. He was also very polite and friendly. In the past months since the work has been completed, we are still finding random nails and I'm sure we will find more over the years as the rocks shift. Another issue we had was when the crew was loading the shingle packs onto the roof, they were dropping them from waist level, rather then bending and setting them down. I understand they are heavy, but we now have squeaks in our house where we didn't before. It shook and rattled the house like they were going to come through the roof. We brought our concerns to Nic and he was going to relay them to the correct people. I hope its been addressed and future customers won't have the same problems. A few days after roof was done, we had a very hard rain with wind. There was some water in our garage by our furnace. Nic came out the same day and spent a large amount of time trying to figure out where it had come from. He was very thorough and took lots of pictures, went in attic of garage and on the roof. We determined it was from the wind blowing the rain sideways and through the exhaust pipe. It hasn't happened since so I am comfortable with that determination."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

A DIY kit can lessen the sting that comes with paying for a professional assessment, but these comprehensive tests are true lifesavers. Inspectors are more likely to catch all of the pollutants and hazards in your air. Plus, you’ll still need a professional to verify and act on your DIY test results. 

Some kits don’t include tests for certain air pollutants or only detect their presence, but not their levels (i.e., mold spores). If you’re willing to shell out money for a DIY kit, it’s usually better to stretch your budget slightly higher for a more detailed assessment.

Inhaling black mold spores, even from behind walls, can cause people to have a wide variety of potential health issues. Some people may only notice a few breathing problems, while others can become quite sick with symptoms related to severe allergies. Constant exposure to mold spores can lead to lung infections and other long-term health problems. If you believe you have black mold inside your walls, you will want to reach out to a pro for an inspection and for advice on how to take care of the problem before it causes severe illness.

Powdery mildew is exactly like it sounds—a widespread mold that looks like baking soda or talcum powder. It’s usually seen on plants and spread in warm climates, which is why many people first discover this issue in their home greenhouse. Over time, plants have become resistant, but if you see it spreading, baking soda and water can eliminate many cases. Otherwise, consider neem oil or fungicide. 

If you’re worried mold might still be lingering after you’ve cleaned your items, here are signs to watch for:

  • Musty smell

  • Visible spots or stains

  • Allergy symptoms when you’re around the item

  • Damp or sticky feel.

If you notice these signs, it might be time to let go of the item or get professional treatment.

Mold is a fungus that typically grows in warm, moist environments, which is why it's so often found in bathrooms, attics, and under sinks. It survives by digesting decaying organic materials, which makes it very helpful for removing dead plant matter around the world. However, if it starts eating away at your drywall, window frames, and flooring, it can harm your home and your health.
