When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it is mold in your home, school, place of work, or apartment there are many factors to consider. Are you going to be involved in a mold lawsuit? Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? Will you be seeking medical damages? Will you need expert witnesses? If so, what kind? Do you just want to test to be sure your environment is safe? Do you need post mold remediation testing to ensure a good job was done? These and other factors are questions which need to be answered before any environmental testing starts. It is important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages and property damages require different environmental tests to prove your case in court. Tests that a common, or inexperienced, mold inspector would not typically use or know to use.

"If you need someone to side with you so that you are not liable for your tenants health concerns these are your people! Harmon (Stan) Blanchard will gladly avoid any legitimate mold concerns, and to top it off he will maintain a cocky presentation the entire time. He got a call from a client and yelled at them because they called his cell phone and not his office, then proceeded to tell us how some of his clients are crazy. I pointed out visible mold on air vents, and clear mold rings around junction box covers but he was not willing to even look at it never mind taking any samples he just kept saying "I have seen this before it's nothing to be concerned about" which was very odd. I showed him these photos and recommended he took a sample from behind the cover but he was only interested in taking a photo of my computer screen from across the room...I offered to send him the photos but he would rather just take photos of my computer screen. The only swab he even took was of the very corner of my dresser top which I clearly stated I had recently cleaned and his response was "well it looks like you clean everything so that's the problem" how about you take a sample of the mold itself and not a freshly cleaned surface seeing how I did not clean the mold? Red flags everywhere with this guy, he even took his one and only single air sample from the opposite corner of the room as the clearly visible mold problem. I pointed out my dehumidifier can not keep the relative humidity below 55% and it runs 24/7 but his excuse was it was not accurate and so he proved it by taking a humidity reading of the air OUTPUT from the unit, what does that even prove?! I showed him clearly painted over mold on my door frame and he totally played it off! I want to know how much my landlord paid him under the table, because this clown is ridiculous. He should be ashamed of playing with another humans health like this. DO NOT - I REPEAT, DO NOT HIRE THIS GUY!"

"Horrible experience. I called Enrique to work on the remediation of mold due to a leak on Sept 20, 2023. He gave me a 10,000 price with insurance and said to me to email him my policy. He came back and said that I had a great coverage and that I need not to worry as their team deals directly with the insurance. I believe him because this Company had great reviews. My insurance is not paying because they overcharged excessively. Enrique ignores my calls and txts. They said is a hassle free service but is not true. If your insurance does not pay they will put a lien on your house. Run away!!! I recommend that you work with a Company that your insurance recommend or pay out of pocket and claim back to insurance. They will use all your coverage limit because their pricing is insane. They don't disclose the pricing by the way until the very end when is too late. As the mold spread to my son's room they added 20,000 to the price. I got this email today but is not the first one. They are threatening me to put a lien on my property. I had been through h*** with them. Dont make the same mistake Lina, Good afternoon. We submitted all final Invoices, pictures and documents for your claim on 09/27/2023. It has been over the 60 days that the Insurance company has to make a decision. When I spoke to your adjuster yesterday on the phone, he said the claim was still in review. He claimed that we should have charged closer to $10,000 total on each of your Mold Invoices. His reasoning for that was that we should have charged less because the homeowner, you, were going through a hard time. Unfortunately, that is not an acceptable reason nor is it compliant with any reasoning behind why a Mold Remediation Invoice should be for less money or not paid out for work we completed. So, I stated we have pictures and documents to back up all of our line item charges on our Invoices and he can speak to Pamela Brown our claims manager, to go over any line-item charges on your Invoices. Pamela has contacted and is still waiting to hear back from your adjuster. We are approaching 70 days since completion of your job. By around 80 days we need to file a lien against your property for the amount owed to us. If payment is not received by us by next Friday, we will be placing a lien on the property for the balance owed, as stated in your signed contracts and Florida law. Once we receive payment from you, we will satisfy the lien. Hopefully your adjuster will get in touch with Pamela soon and your Insurance company will make their payment determination. However, this does serve as notice that by next Friday, around 80 days from completion of job, we will be placing a lien on the property which will be satisfied immediately after payment is made.

Biohazard remediation services FAQs

There are several instances where household biohazard cleanup would be needed. All in all, anytime an event can potentially expose people to chemicals, pathogens, or viruses, a biohazard cleanup company must be called. These events can include:

  • Sewage backup

  • Unattended death or crime scene after death

  • Virus decontamination

  • Medical waste disposal 

  • Animal waste disposal 

  • Odor control   

  • Hazardous chemical removal

The cost of biohazard cleanup averages between $3,000 and $5,000 for most homeowners. Some services, like sanitizing high-traffic areas or sanitizing surfaces from a virus, cost closer to $1,500. However, other circumstances, like the extensive cleanup after a major sewer backup, could cost as much as $25,000

While a biohazard cleanup sounds like a scary process, knowing what to expect can help ease your concerns and set you up for success. It’s good to note that more than one professional might be needed depending on your situation, but that will be determined during the assessment. What you can expect during a home biohazard cleanup is the following:

  • Assessment: The first step in this process is for a biohazard cleanup professional to assess the damage. They create a report that includes the biohazard safety level, the needed damage cleanup, and the time it should take to complete the project. 

  • Setup: The cleanup professional prepares the site to prevent cross-contamination and reduce toxicity risk. This process can include tarping and creating decontamination zones. 

  • Removal of surface contamination: Any contaminated materials are removed from the area, starting with large materials followed by small ones. The professional can assess any floor-related damage once everything is removed from the site. 

  • Salvaging items: The biohazard cleanup professionals assess which items can be saved and which are contaminated beyond the point of saving. Those deemed unsafe will be disposed of immediately. 

  • Waste disposal: The next step is carefully disposing of the hazardous waste. Your professional will place the contaminated items in specific containers to keep the contamination from spreading.   

  • Disinfection: The house will be disinfected and odor-neutralized. Even more minor details, like light switches and bulbs, will be disinfected so that they do not recontaminate the area in the future. 

  • Restoration: Once the decontamination is complete, the last step is to restore the home. This includes repairing the damage to flooring, walls, or even the home's foundation.  

Most homeowner’s insurance policies can help cover the cost of biohazard cleanings for specific events. Biohazard events like unattended death, infectious disease, and medical emergency are generally covered, as are flooring and drywall repairs. It’s best to check with your insurance company to see what is specifically covered.

One of the best ways to prepare for a home biohazard cleanup is not to touch anything. Do not remove belongings, even if they are of value or importance, from the area as they are likely contaminated. It’s essential not to use any cleaning products of your own, as the cleaning company will be using chemicals that could interact with your products. 

One thing you can do to prepare is take pictures of your space and belongings that need to be cleaned, especially if you plan on filing a claim with your insurance company. In addition, take time to make a list of items that are valuable, sentimental, or otherwise important. The cleanup company must evaluate these belongings to make sure they are safe.
