What Is the Method of Mold Testing Used?
There are mold remediation companies that believe an air sample quality test is sufficient to determine the nature of your mold problem. However, I believe a more extensive evaluation is necessary to understand the true extent of the problem and allow for proper treatment to be put into place. Because of our company’s background as the nation’s first to conduct testing for and treat residential radon, we take the scientific analysis of discovering the full nature of a problem seriously. A full physical sweep and physical samples are necessary to create a full test to know the true extent of a mold problem. It’s necessary to know this before the mold can be most effectively treated.
What Are Your Accreditations?
It’s important that the professionals that you choose to solve your mold problem have the proper licensing and insurance, as treating mold can be a complex process. We are a Better Business Bureau accredited business that maintains an A+ rating. We are accredited with the American Council for Accredited Certification, formerly American Indoor Air Quality Council. We have insurance to fully protect are clients work closely with government organizations, including the EPA, as well as the top industry associations to make sure that we are always giving our clients the most up-to-date treatments, information and solutions for all environmental concerns that property owners may experience.
How Much Experience Do You Have?
We have been in business since the 1960s and have been operating under the name RDS, and treating homes for residential environmental concerns since 1986. What is more is that though we have achieved great success in our business, we have chosen not to franchise, but to maintain a single office based in Broomfield, Colorado. Knowing the geology and other environmental concerns of our local area intimately allows us to provide our customers with the most comprehensive and knowledge-based treatments for any environmental concerns that they face as property owners.
Do You Contain the Treatment Site?
It’s vital that workers wear proper suits and the site of treatment is fully contained so that cross-contamination is not possible, otherwise you may find yourself with a mold problem that has spread. Our experience dealing with radon has given us the experience to contain treatments to the highest standards.
What Is Your Treatment Protocol?
Many mold remediation companies spray the mold with toxins to kill them. This can lead to a health hazard that is just as dangerous as the mold itself. It’s important that mold specialists fully remove the problem by removing the mold from your home.

I like what you say about looking at the experience of the company. If they’ve been in business for a while, there’s probably a good reason. If I ever need mold remediation, I’ll be sure to find someone that’s been doing it for a while.

Thanks for sharing your article about choosing the right mold remediation company. I agree with what you said about how mold infestation in your house not only negatively impacts the value and integrity of the house but compromises the health and safety of everyone who lives in the home. It has been a decade since I last visited our old house. We want to move back to our old house, so it’s important for us to make sure that it’s a safe and clean environment for our children. I will make sure to consider hiring a mold remediation company as soon as possible.

I totally agree with what you said about choosing a mold removal company that has the proper license and accreditation. One way to verify this is by searching for the company’s credentials online to check if they are legally authorized to operate their business. Also, you may want to verify with the BBB if they have recently received any complaints against the company. You certainly would like to work with a reputable company that can assist you with your mold problems. If I ever need to hire one, I would make sure to take this into consideration. Thanks.

I like that you provided some tips on how to choose the right remediation professional such as verifying his license and accreditations. it is recommended that you verify if the company is licensed and is a member of an accredited organization. You can do this by checking the company’s credentials via the BBB. If I were to choose a remediation specialist to work on a contaminated site, I would definitely take this into account. Thanks.

Thanks for the advice about asking for accreditations when hiring a mold remediation service. We can’t seem to get rid of the mold growing on our bathroom wall. Since we have decided to hire professionals, I will take your advice and make sure they are qualified.
Rachel Frampton says
I’ve been planning to hire a mold inspection service because I noticed that my allergies are getting worst, and my suspicion is because my home is infested with molds. I never knew that air sampling could be a solution in terms of testing the facility for molds. I’m glad you shared this by the way; I’ll keep in mind to verify whether the prospective service is licensed and insured.

Appreciate the time put into this article about choosing the right mold remediation company. There’s a large segment of the population who struggle with mold sensitivities. A lot of the companies out there simply ignore this and perform a one sized fits all approach to remediation; often ignoring the root cause of the mold infestation.
