I would recommend SporeTech to anyone in the Louisville area who needs a mold inspection. The owner was very professional, experienced and knowledgeable. He spent over an hour with me at no charge a couple of days before the inspection just answering my questions and informing me about all aspects of mold. He would have spent longer if I had needed it and he offered to do it again if I have further questions. He provided a very professional and detailed, written report within a few days of the inspection.
Description of Work: Provided mold inspection of two small rental homes.

I had a plumbing issue that caused my kitchen ceiling to fall in due to collected water. I was very anxious about the resulting mold We discovered and was trying to find out what concentration of bleach and water to use when I discovered the Spore Tech website. It was a Saturday morning and I called the number just in case...and Richard of SporeTech Mold Investigations actually picked up (on a Saturday morning!). I explained my problem and that I was in NE Ohio and had read his website and wanted to know more about what he had mentioned regarding how homeowners could remediate small mold issues themselves and how to do it properly on porous materials such as our moldy joists. He was SO NICE! Knowing he would not get a sale from me due to my location, he still spent about 40 minutes on the phone with me telling me exactly what to do and answering all my questions. I am so very grateful for his help and he has been a real hero and lifesaver, especially since I am a federal employee who was furloughed recently and didn't have extra money left over. If it weren't for him, we would have had a major problem and no knowledge to address it adequately. I have mold allergies and can suffer an asthma attack when mold is bad, so this really helped me. Everything he has said has worked perfectly!
Description of Work: Gave amazing information regarding how to address our mold situation even though he knew he would never get a sale from us because we are out of state.

renovation contractor
Description of Work: This is kind of an unusual review, but upon calling Mr. Greer, he determined we really didn't need his services since we already knew we had mold in the crawl space of our home. This was also going to be a litigation matter since this was all caused by our renovation contractor. Mr. Greer talked us through the entire process we would need to go through and who to contact. He was extremely generous with his time, expertise and information. If we were to be in this situation again (God forbid!!), we would certainly utilize Mr. Greer and his company. It is such a blessing to have someone go above and beyond when it means they gain nothing financially.

They did an excellent job. The owner of the company came out to evaluate the mold that we had. They were able to schedule us to get the problem fixed relatively quickly. I had a really good experience and I would highly recommend them. They were very knowledgeable too. I would definitely use their services in the future.
Description of Work: We used SporeTech Mold Investigations before Christmas for mold testing and remediation.
