When you have mold, making the correct decisions right away is critical. Whether it’s mold in your home, school, place of work or apartment there are many factors to consider. Will you be seeking property damages? Is anyone sick from mold exposure? 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’s important to know what your goals are and why your testing. Different goals require different environmental tests, i.e. medical damages & 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.
"They gave me a report that was safe and okay. We needed to do minimal work to keep things safe. No black mold found. About 4 months later, Iâ ve found black mold everywhere. Kitchen mould mites took all my appliances. My kids are sick. We have to move out. They wonâ t refund my money because itâ s â my fault I found itâ"

"I regret to inform others of our horrendous experience with Georgia Clean and Associates. Tasked with handling a biohazard cleanup following the passing of my father, their service was grossly unsatisfactory. Their response time was painfully slow, requiring several days to even begin addressing our situation, then it took them an astonishing several weeks to complete the cleanup. Not only was their efficiency in question, but their communication was absolutely abysmal. It was as if we were left in the dark, with little to no updates about progress or processes. The ultimate shock was receiving an exorbitant cleanup bill, well into the six figures. Their quoted price was deemed too excessive by our insurance provider and was not settled. To add insult to injury, they have now resorted to threatening us legally, demanding we send them $46,000 from our repair funds or face a lawsuit in five days. I cannot stress enough how you should avoid Georgia Clean and Associates at all costs. Their poor service and callous approach during a period of intense grief was not only unprofessional but heartless. Families dealing with loss deserve a company that empathizes with their situation, not one that exacerbates it. Please seek out a better-staffed, more professional and esteemed company who truly understands the emotional toll such circumstances can bring. You deserve a firm that will help you navigate through such difficult times, not one that victimizes you further."

"This is long but if you even for one second consider using them - you might want to read this. We had a small water leak under our kitchen cabinet January 15th 2023. USAA suggested Servpro of Columbus. Having been with USAA for 20+ years without issues - we didn’t think twice and got in touch. Our first mistake! Mediation was done quickly and then there was no contact or any communication or a clear timeline. One morning we had a knock on our door to find 2 guys claiming to be here to tear our wood floor out. We did not let them in and called and told Servpro to inform them that this just isn’t how this was going to work. We then got a project manager, Jonathan. We got some explanations and were sent to Home Depot to pick out new flooring (still confused how we had to go instead of being provided samples). We were told he “had a guy” that could match our kitchen cabinet that needed replacing instead of tearing the whole kitchen out. Workers came a few days later to tear the floor out. He didn’t have equipment to do it and had to go rent it (HUGE red flag in hindsight but we never dealt with anything like this and just didn’t know. They left huge chunks of glue and even wood on the floor that I unfortunately never got images of. They damaged walls and kitchen cabinets with the machine when taking out the floor. You can see in the photos how they thought the baseboards and quarter round should look. It looks like this through the whole first floor. Uneven beyond belief. Every single baseboard is uneven and has paint drips. They did NOT wipe down anything from the huge mess created by taking the floor out before they started painting. Every single baseboard, window frame, fireplace, door frame has wood dirt and particles painted into it. The carpet had paint drips on it, the new wood floor had paint on it (which they removed but it left the floor dull). They also got paint on our TV and when made aware of that - they used a razor blade to get it off which resulted into the TV screen to get scratched up. Nothing was covered before they started painting. At this point we are mid April. We noticed our living room floor was wet. Quickly realizing it came from the water spout that’s on the wall outside they repeatedly used. When calling Jonathan he told us we will have to just get a plumber and that it was not on his workers. After reviewing security camera footage we saw them using our water hose and “pulling” it tightly. The last straw was our kitchen cabinet being delivered - probably a good 4 weeks after we were promised it would be here). Not only was it far from a match but it was made from a different wood (which partially explains that it wouldn’t match). Jonathan was made aware of each issue throughout. We were done! USAA sent out an independent adjuster. He kept shaking his head and told us this was probably one of the worse jobs he has seen. Our new floor was already separating in places, was uneven, had a ton of hollow spots (they never prepped the cement before laying the new floor). After a LONG battle with a company USAA uses (a contract Connections) Servpro was found at fault for all items. They did not get paid and had to pay us for damages (the water hose leak, the TV, getting new baseboards and door/window frames and lots more). I am not going into the huge amount of other issues like cracking our granite counters, never being on time, awful communication, their contractors driving across our yard (we have a sprinkler system), washing their paintbrushes in our sink when repeatedly being told we are on a septic system and paint can’t go into it, and just in general being very unpleasant to deal with. And lots more small issues that all added up to a disaster. I have not had a functional kitchen since March. This sorry excuse of a company has ruined more than just our first floor. We were finally able to get a new company and I HIGHLY recommend Southeast Restoration. They will treat you right. Since my first phone call to them it has been night and day."

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.
