We could not be happier. Cathy took the time to talk with us and address our concerns. Never did she brush off our questions, but instead gave valid answers and reasons for them. Her team thoroughly reviewed the home and was happy to re-check specific areas of which we were concerned. We also felt it was important that this company does not perform remediation, so that we could have a confident unbiased report.
Description of Work: Visually nspected home and took moisture readings, air samples, and swab samples from problem areas. Gave a written report of their findings and gave recommendations for remediation.

We contacted Cathy after a restoration company made a mess of our home while "removing" soot, and later mold. Unfortunately, we have met our share of unethical and inapt companies in the restoration business. We were finally able to have peace of mind when Cathy was hired- this company is professional, knowledgable and compassionate. Wish we had found LRC sooner.
Description of Work: Tested the air quality in our home after exposure to soot and mold.

Very professional. I felt they were accurate. They did a visual inspection, collected moisture measurements, and measured temperatures. I don't think there is much they could've missed. I got my report in less than 2 weeks. That was pretty fast.
Description of Work: Went around entire house and inspected.

LRC was very professional and very responsive. Additionally, given my short timeframe for the due diligence inspection. Not only were they extremely timely but they worked very well for me under a time crunch. I received a full report of their findings along with the testing results in order to proceed with the proper corrective measures.
Description of Work: LRC provided crawlspace inspection for mold contaminates during my due diligence inspection for the purchase of a new home.

After the inspection and report, Cathy and Keith patiently educated us in layman's terms regarding the types of spores in our home and the differences between them. They expertly answered hundreds of our questions during multiple conversations and emails. They went above and beyond the scope of their proposal without requesting extra compensation. LRC gave us perspective during a vulnerable time when many could have taken advantage of our position. We were able to make informed, competent decisions regarding remediation based on their expertise and generosity. Later, we hired LRC as expert witness to testify at our arbitration. We won more than $169,000 due in part to their findings and testimony. We interviewed several companies before choosing LRC and got a feel for the industry and their practices. We absolutely recommend LRC without hesitation.
Description of Work: LRC inspected our entire home due to extensive mold infestation. They record IAQ parameters of temperature and relative humidity and they checked moisture content in building materials. They collected various air samples for indoors/outdoors mold spore comparison. They collected surface samples and provided a written report describing the inspection results, compared the results to accepted guidelines and directives. LRC's report included a summary inspection, Certificates of Laboratory Analysis, Summary Tables, and remediation protocol.
