Mold Testing & Remediation

About us

Thank you for your continued support. 954-918-6498/ molddetective@me.com 954-918-6498- The Mold Detective does NOT participate in Shot Gun lead generation. That's when a venue such as Thumbtack, Home Advisor, etc. sells your info for a fee to the participating contractors. I am not a Lead Chaser. Please call directly (954) 918-6498 to discuss your project. I will quote you my fees directly and there will be NO surprises or switches when I arrive. Honor & Integrity is my personal & business code. Too many of the "Other " guys will quote a low price over the phone, then go into a sales pitch when they're in the door. That will never happen when you deal with "The Mold Detective". Charles R Galvagni, The Mold Detective, offers Complete Mold Inspection & Assessment. Remediation protocols are included wherever applicable. Home inspections are available, as well. Thank you for checking out "The Mold Detective".

Description of Work: Charlie came to the house and took air samples within and outside (as a baseline), he inspected the leak area as well as other areas of the house and took samples. His report was very complete and he had clear recommendations. He included the lab results and a detailed report from the lab. While we do need to do remediation, the inspection itself was very friendly and professional. The reports were thorough and compelling. Charlie advised he was available for follow up questions and we may have some at a later date. In all a good experience.

Description of Work: Charlie was fantastic. Explained in detail the process for detecting mold and the samples he would take. He even took an extra sample at no charge. Presently our mother home is being remediated and Charlie will go back and retake sample to be sure healthy levels are back. I felt very confident in Charlies knowledge.The Mold Detective is excellent.

Description of Work: Charlie came out almost right away to determine the extent of our mold problem and took quite some time taking readings and paying close and thorough attention to detail. He explained everything to us and what he found. He also worked closely with the remediation service, Discreet Restoration, to make sure that they all worked together to solve our problem. He was very honest and helpful and always on time. We are very happy with his work AND MAY I ADD, I tried very hard to give him a tip and he refused to take it! He said that he was just doing his job. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone that needs topnotch, professional help with a mold problem. He is a good guy!

Description of Work: Charlie is great! Extremely professional and knowledgeable. We were in the process of purchasing a house, and hired Charlie to do a mold test and inspection. Our engineering inspector had told us that there was some water damage in the bathroom, so we needed to test for mold. Charlie tested the bathroom and also found elevated levels of a different kind of mold in other areas of the house, due to a dirty AC system. He provided a detailed report, at a reasonable cost. Definitely recommend the mold detective!

Excellent.
Description of Work: I called the Mold Detective and was amazed that they actually do try to help you over the phone and avoid unnecessary inspections or tests. Tom was not only very professional and knowledgeable but seemed very interested in my problem. He listened, asked questions and made several suggestions to try before doing through with the inspection.
