"The company advertised was not the same company that actually came out to do the test. It seems like subcontract to other companies. There isn't a secure portal to submit credit card information so they took it verbally over the phone. Not trying to connect the dots but was a strange coincidence that the day after they charged my card that there was a fraud charge on my account."

"Mold remediation is an area that most homeowners have little or no knowledge, so we rely on the expertise of "mold specialists".  This is an unregulated industry and licensing is not necessary.  So what you have is alot of opinions of what the problem is and how it should be solved.
Do yourself and your pocketbook a favor and at the very least go to www.epa.gov/mold/moldresources.html to begin your education about mold.   Google "mold solutions" and you will find some easy and cheap solutions to at least some mold issues.
Lastly, if you find you do need a mold specialist, get at least 4 estimates and detailed explanations of what will be done, what type of warranty will be given (usually none) and why their approach will resolve your problem.  I guarantee your head will be spinning.

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

DIY kits are available for basic air quality testing, but professional services provide more comprehensive results and recommendations. While a DIY kit may seem cost-effective, a professional assessment is more thorough. Inspectors are better equipped to catch all pollutants and hazards, and you'll still need a professional to verify and act on DIY test results. Furthermore, some kits don't test for certain pollutants or only detect their presence without measuring specific levels (like mold spores). It's generally better to opt for a detailed professional assessment.

Mold in a furnace is frequently found on evaporator coils, filters, or within the ductwork. The mold appears in dark, fuzzy patches in either black, green, or white. You may also notice a musty odor. Green or white mold can be cleaned with DIY methods, but if you see black mold, call a professional. Black mold is toxic and harmful to your health.

If you suspect black mold is inside your walls, do not punch a hole in the drywall yourself to look. Call a mold inspection expert to help you. Some signs of a potential black mold infestation inside the wall include an unexplained musty, damp smell. Some people liken it to rotting vegetables. You may smell it most strongly through a wall outlet. If you and your family are experiencing constant coughing or symptoms that feel like an unexplained allergy, it could indicate black mold behind a wall.

When doing any type of project involving mold, it's important to wear the right protective gear. You'll want an N-95 or KN-95 mask to keep yourself from inhaling mold spores, which can be irritating or trigger an allergic reaction in people with weakened immune systems. You'll also want to wear protective eyewear and gloves to limit your contact with mold.

The best way to measure moisture levels in drywall is with a moisture meter. Moisture meters feature small probes that you insert into drywall (similar to pushing a pin into the wall). Ideally, you'll take moisture readings at several locations on the wall to get a general idea of the moisture level.
