"Been dealing with a mold issue with my apartment complex, who has not been very helpful regarding the situation at all. Went online to find a 3rd party inspector. Filled out an online form to try to be connected with mold experts in area. One ended up contacting me and getting information regarding the issue, but never contacted me back (most likely due to it being a apartment). Another mold expert (Mark himself) contacted me, and informed me he can come by the next day to do a free inspection. He worked with me to schedule a time that was flexible to my schedule. He was super communicative, shooting me a text to confirm our appointment, to even giving me a call right before heading over. I also found it amazing that he was more than willing to travel over an hour just to provide an inspection to my apartment in Biloxi. During the inspection visit, I asked him to provide a test in order to confirm his visual inspection of mold (just to have proof to provide to my complex). On top of doing the test, he provided me with a discounted price on top of what already was a reasonable price (based off of the prices of the other mold testers)! I did not think he needed to do this at all, especially with the distance driven, but I was super appreciative. This showed how he truly cares for his clients best interests! His great service did not stop there. He typed up an amazing email to document his findings and to draw attention to the serious matter, which then he provided to my complex on my behalf. He has since remained in communication with me to show his support and help see this issue through. I donâ t write reviews often, only when I believe them to be well deserved and in this case it most definitely is! Recommend his service to any and everyone!"

"I hired Atwood Restoration after my kitchen and a bathroom sustained water damage. After reading through reviews, I called this company, and they showed up asap. The remediation team was top notch. Kelly and her team were professional, friendly, and efficient. JT and the restoration team did an outstanding job on the repairs. The whole process was seamless, from working with our insurance company to keeping us informed of the progress and process. I could not be happier with Atwood Restoration."

"In preparation for a long-awaited bathroom remodel, I decided to try and circumvent excess dust in the rest of the house by putting a large towel in the duct vent in that particular bathroom. MOLD was discovered! Upon checking other ducts, it appeared to be in all of them. After careful research, a company in Mississippi was contacted, M.R.T.E. (Mold Remediation and Testing Experts). They called back very promptly, and Steve Brown spoke at length about his passion, mold. An inspection appointment was scheduled for testing almost immediately. Six different samples were taken from ducts throughout the house, air samples both inside and outside, as well as under the house. Samples were submitted to the lab they use, with results returned overnight. M.R.T.E. suggests remediation (removal) at any mold spore level above 500 per cubic meter (for our specific mold type) in your home. Ours was ~1900!!! It was indicated this high level of colonization occurred over an approximate 10-year time frame, which meant weâ d been breathing this in our air for that length of time. Our home is circa 1962, as are many homes in this area. We had no idea the mold was present, since it isnâ t clearly visible, nor could it be smelled...UNTIL I began preparing for the bathroom remodel. A team of 4 spent 5.5 hours scrubbing, vacuuming, spraying, removing moldy insulation from under the house (17 33-gallon bags of it). They were professional, informative, friendly, guarantee their work, and we found them to be less expensive than most local remediation companies. POINT: If you have ANY doubt, have your home inspected, particularly if you have infants, elderly, or those with chronic conditions living in the home. It just might save loved ones from serious illness (allergies, asthma, COPD, pneumonia) and may even add years to your life that the mold would have insidiously tried to steal from you! We are more than grateful we found the issue and had it resolved. Check out their website for yourself, and compare to what we have locally. You will be glad you did. www.moldremediationandtestingexperts.com Patti/Huntsville, AL"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Although you can run a DIY test for mold inside your home by buying a test kit, you won’t know whether the strain of mold is dangerous. The best way to test for mold in a home is to hire a professional who can determine the specific type of mold that you have. If you’re worried you exposed yourself to mold and it’s making you ill, you could request a health test. Your personal doctor could test your urine, take a nasal swab, or test some body tissue to determine your potential exposure to mold.

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.

If you own a stereo microscope, you should be able to see the fibers. The stereo microscope often can perform magnification up to 50x. But unless you have experience viewing asbestos fibers, you may not know exactly what you are seeing. Some fibers are curly, while others are long and straight. Blue, brown, white, and gray colored fibers are all possible.

Mold and other fungi love moisture, so the best way to prevent mold growth after water damage is to remove as much moisture as possible. First, find the source of the water or moisture, such as a leak or clogged gutters, and correct the problem. Next, remove standing water, vacuum up puddles with a shop vacuum, and run blower fans and dehumidifiers for 24 to 72 hours. Once you've removed all traces of moisture, disinfect the area using either vinegar or bleach to kill any remaining mold spores.

Mold thrives in high-moisture environments, whether that’s steady leaks or just high condensation. Around the house, common causes of mold include leaky pipes, a leaking roof, high humidity, poor ventilation, a damp basement, rotting food in the fridge, wet clothing and towels not hung properly for drying, a leaking foundation, and a leaky air conditioner.

And, of course, if your home suffers from flood damage, you stand the risk of developing mold in the aftermath. That’s why it’s important to act quickly at the first sign of mold.
