I called a few companies to compare estimates for basement mold remediation. Tom was the most responsive. Upon seeing our issue, he explained that he would be happy to provide the service, but that it would not be too difficult for us to fix ourselves. He provided detailed, step-by-step instruction for us to kill the mold and save the $700 it would cost to have a company do it. I thoroughly appreciated his honesty and integrity, as well as the mold 101 education -- he is extremely knowledgeable and skilled at conveying the most important information to a layperson like me. We will take the DIY approach for this project, and hopefully never have a mold situation requiring his service again, but if we do, Tom would be my first call.

Response from Certified Mold Inspection & Remediation Services
Thank you for the very nice review. After I arrived I was informed that her husband is a commercial painter and that he had applied a commercial antimicrobial sanitizer to the exposed basement foundation walls, but might have thought that since some staining remained after the walls were treated that it hadn't worked. There wasn't much left to do, since he had used the correct type of product, so I suggested a few more procedures that would complete the mold remediation project. It's my philosophy that if I can help someone to solve a problem at a minimum cost, then it's the right thing to do, even if it means that I have to sacrifice some potential income. This approach has continued to build our referral network and a large community of pleased folks who we have helped and contribute to the referrals that we receive. In the long run I believe that everyone, including our company, has benefitted from this approach to conducting our business. Thanks again for taking some time to submit this review. I appreciate it very much. Tom

It went well. Tom knows his work and took the time to go through things with us. I'm hoping we didn't put him too far behind today. Thank you Tom; we really appreciate you and will recommend you to others.
Description of Work: Checked for mold in drawers, under windows, attic, and basement to name a few areas...We are nervous new home buyers, so we had a few questions about some of the new to us things around our home. Tom was so helpful to point out what to be concerned for and what was just wear and tear.

Thanks for taking some time to submit this review...so many Angie's members have said that they would but have failed to do so. After getting through a short tearful episode, everything worked out okay without any big problems having been found. I'm happy that that was the outcome! Tom

The work was done promptly and very professionally. The technician removed the contaminated sheet rock and insulation and treated the area with an anti-microbial paint. He was very conscientious about protecting our flooring and cleaning the area where the remediation was done. We received the official remediation report the next business day after the remediation. The price was very fair.
Description of Work: Tom inspected our house and offered to tell us how to remediate the surface mold we had in a closet. We requested that Certified perform the remediation.

Tom's first question of me after he looked the "big problem" over was, "do you really want to spend $700 on this?"...I of course, said No, but will do whatever is needed to fix the problem. I was preparing myself for an even bigger number and even more work. Then he says something along the lines of ....how about $30 dollars and I tell you what you can do instead of my guys. I can't direct quote because I was in shock.....WHAT!!! I couldn't believe it! I didn't have a "big problem". He then let me furiously take notes on what I could do (with products I already have in my home) and the paint product I could buy at a local hardware store. THEN, he took it one step further and walked me outside to give me some additional suggestions on how to mitigate any future issues with additional do-it-yourself tips based on the soil around the area. Cost: $0.00 Money that can go into other necessary projects this spring following his directions: $670. If I ever do have any serious issues, there is no question - this is the guy I am going to call.
Description of Work: After a contractor I had worked with on some basement updates had said I had a "big problem" with mold in my well housing I searched Angie's list and found Tom. Tom came out to the house to give me an estimate on addressing the mold in that area. (NOTE: the service was the estimate)

We really appreciate this nice report. I am all in favor of saving clients and potential clients money whenever possible. It is disappointing to me whenever people tell me that another contractor tried to deceive them about a "serious problem" when one doesn't exist. We take pride in running a fair and honest business and meeting or exceeding client expectations. This might sound trite, but that's what how we conduct our business.. Putting clients' interests first has helped us to develop the reputation that we have. Thanks for taking the time to submit this review. It was very nice of you. Tom

Super job. We were panicked, and Tom (the owner) was great. He explained everything that had occurred, what condition the basement was in, what needed to be done and how they could do it. He was very reassuring and very knowledgeable. When the work was done, the guys - Mark and Frank - were great. We couldn't be more pleased. This company is a top-notch operation start to finish. They are all super guys, personable and knowledgeable. They covered the items that couldn't be moved with plastic to protect them, tore out the bad stuff and cleaned, sanitized and sealed the walls. We were informed of every step and they did a beautiful job and didn't leave a speck of dust... Hopefully, we will never have mold again, but if we did, there would be no one else we would call. Not only was the service outstanding, but the price was less than half of the other estimates. I wish there was an A+++ rating.
Description of Work: Mold remediation and tear-out. Outside plumbing leak caused paneling and drywall to mold and crumble. The moisture and mold had affected three walls in the finished area and also caused staining and crusting on the block wall in the inner basement.

Great. He was very responsive with his call back as well as scheduling the consult. I knew what he was going to do before he came. There were no unexpected charges. Because our job was within the guidelines for a homeowner to tackle, he gave us all the information we needed to go out and buy the right product and do it ourselves safely. We are so grateful for his honesty and knowledge.

Tom came to my home and inspected all of the areas that I was concerned with. After confirming that there was not a mold problem he directed me to several helpful websites that contained further information on mold and it's "dangers". He put my mind at ease and gave me several ideas to prevent water issues in the future. He was very honest and kind.

I appreciate this very nice review. Re the "dangers" of mold exposure, I encounter these questions frequently because there is quite a bit of misinformation on the internet and circulating among the general public. When these questions occur I like to show clients factual information from the Minnesota Department of Health and the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention and discuss it. This has been widely appreciated by my clients. Thanks again for the nice review and taking time to submit it. Tom

Tom arrived on time in pouring rain. He was patient with all my questions and gave me time to take a bunch of notes. I know practically nothing about home maintenance, so when Tom took the time to explain things to me about sheetrock and moisture indicators and all of that I really appreciated it. Who does that anymore? My parents owned their own business and he reminded me of them in his honest approach to business and customers. Smart and nice guy. Really knows his field. I can see why his Company is rated so high on Angie's list.
Description of Work: Tom of Certified Mold Inspection & Remediation contacted me the same day I reached out to him via Angie's list. We set up an appointment and he visited my home on July 11, 2014, in response to my concerns about the water we had experienced in our garage, laundry room and family room on the lower level of a walk-up rambler. I had requested a quote for his Company's services. Tom checked my entire basement, every room and looked at every wall and floor and explained that I did not really have a mold problem and educated me on how to clean up a few areas so I would have confidence that my basement had no lingering issues from the wet carpet. So I did not contract for services, but I certainly would recommend Tom and his Company, based on his knowledge level, his professionalism and his approach to being an ethical businessman.

Response from Certified Mold Inspection & Remediation Services
There have been many serious problems with wet basements this spring and summer. I have been receiving about 150 voice mails and e-mails weekly, mostly from folks who are in a crisis situation. Those are the ones that need and get our attention and help soonest. It may seem to this member that we are unprofessional, but I suggest that those who read our reviews pay attention to all of the others. In times like this we cannot satisfy everyone but we continue to do our best to help however we can. Last year under similar circumstances we also received a poor rating from a disgruntled member. It's something to be expected when you cannot handle all of the requests immediately all of the time. Nevertheless, we appreciate every review that our clients submit to Angie's List. Tom

They were courtious, personable and very competent. They hustled and got the job done. Thyey also were able to identify the probable water source for the leaking chimney (that damaged the carpet). That repair was out of scope for the job, but will be done shortly. The attention to detail on the job, that they were contracted to do, plus pointing out the less than obvious cause for the chimney leaking water, I would not hesitate to hire them again if I ever need their service. They gave me plenty of tips on how to avoid conditions that would contribute to mold growth. Improve landscaping, downspout placement, etc.

There is a reason Tom gets such good reviews...he is the guy you call if you have mold. I found mold growing in the furnace room of my basement, and had Tom out to inspect it. After a thorough inspection he showed me how simple it is to fix myself. If it were a bigger project, I would have hired him and his team to handle it. He is very knowledgeable about mold and moisture, and answered all of my questions. Highly recommend.

Tom and Frank were great to work with. Tom was very helpful with explaining what they would do and provided two quotes depending on the scenario that unfolded once it became clear what areas were affected by mold. Frank did the work within the estimated time (1 day). Tom and Frank were able to address our concerns about using products that might produce toxic air quality throughout the process. Both Tom and Frank were helpful with tips to prevent future moisture issues.

Tom is a great guy with a lot of experience. He came out to the house a day after I called him since I let him know we were under some tight deadlines from our relocation company. I appreciated his quick response GREATLY! He was able to line Frank up to come out to do the remediation within a couple of days. Relocating/moving can be very stressful with so many things to do, but the service we received was excellent and was glad to get this crossed off my list.

Tom gave us specific products to buy and clear instructions on how to proceed on our own. He was a great help to us and his excellent consultation didn't cost us anything. We bought the products he told us to buy and followed all of his instructions. After treating the closet walls and the floor molding with the products Tom recommended, we decided to replace a lower section of the sheet rock and then repainted the entire closet. Everything worked out great. The closet is now clean and treated and mold free. With Tom's free guidance we were able to get everything done on our own for around $170. Tom was so helpful and, obviously, wasn't pushing his own services but trying to meet our needs. I would recommend Tom without hesitation if you have mold concerns.
Description of Work: We discovered a mold problem in the closet of our master bedroom on the second floor of our older house. Two of the closet walls face the outside of the house and the dry wall where those walls meet had the dark sign of mold half way down the wall and into the floor molding. Also, there was a slight smell of mold. We called Tom Schultz to determine how to approach this problem and what the potential costs would be. Tom was busy when we called but he quickly called us back and was excellent on the phone. He asked great questions, was very knowledgeable about the issues involved and how best to handle the problem. He listened carefully to us and asked specific questions. He felt very confident that we could take care of this ourselves, or with some local handyman's help, and didn't need to hire his company. He said if he came out to inspect the closet it he would have to charge us $195 for the trip, and if that would make us feel better he would be glad to schedule it, but he assured us that it wasn't a serious problem and we would be better off putting that money into some recommended mold remediation products and do it ourselves.

Response from Certified Mold Inspection & Remediation Services
I am astounded by this review and very disappointed that the Angie's member posted it without contacting me first to express himself. Regarding the review: The project entailed more than he described and our involvement was more than he described. I diagnosed the causes of the mold in his attic for him, described what the mold remediation project would entail, what it would cost, advised him about everything that needed to be done to prevent future problems, and answered every question that he posed.. In a separate conversation with his roofer I advised the roofer what needed to be done to remove mold-affected roof boards that were inaccessible from the attic as well as how to improve the attic ventilation. The first day of the project involved HEPA-vacuuming mold-affected surfaces throughout the attic, treating the surfaces with an antimicrobial, scrubbing the surfaces, antimicrobial-wiping the surfaces, and re-treating the surfaces with antimicrobial. The second day of the project included applying a mold-resistant primer/sealer to the surfaces followed by an application of a mold-resistant finish coat. Price? I am quite familiar with this business and the prevailing pricing throughout it. I know that no certified mold remediation company would have done the same things for a lesser price. Quality? "C"...what is he comparing it to and what were his expectations? Quality of workmanship is an important priority of ours and I provide a detailed proposal that includes what we will do, how we will go about it, and a firm price He accepted the proposal without questioning anything except how soon could we start and finish it. Responsiveness? I scheduled our initial meeting for a date very soon after he called. The project was scheduled for the dates that he requested and completed on time. Punctuality? I can't dispute the only "A" that he posted. Professionalism? "C"...Apparently he is referring to the project completion report. I know of no other mold remediation company that provides a project completion report like I do. My reports include sections devoted to the background, project details, findings, and recommendations to prevent reoccurrence of the problem. This a valuable document to back up the required mold disclosures when listing a home for sale and that is why I take the time to compose and provide it. The report provided to him included all of this, so I really don't understand or agree with this complaint. Comments? "expected more involvement"...Our technicians and I did what we said we would do and they are very well informed about mold issues, causes, corrective measures, etc. We discussed all aspects of the project before, during, and after the work. There is no reason to expect me to stand around and watch the technicians from project beginning to end and I told him that I don't do that. I am busy every workday inspecting mold problems, consulting, and providing reports and bids for other clients. Expected "a more professional report"...I am baffled about what he expected. Once again, we are unique in the industry because we do provide a project report. It covers everything pertinent about the project. Does he want a bunch of boilerplate verbiage so that the report has bulk? My reports are concise and to the point. The old adage "You can't please all of the people all of the time" applies in this case. Tom

Tom (the owner) was easy to reach, readily responsive and really went out of his way to help us out as we had some important scheduling considerations. He was on time, discreet and thorough. He also had samples of the labels of the products he recommended and specific instructions on how to proceed. The products were available at local hardware stores. He was up front with what his costs would be both for the inspection and for any remediation. He offered information on mold growth, causes, concerns and prevention that came from VALID sources, such as the CDC and Minnesota Dept of Public Health. The report of his inspection and evaluation was gotten to us in a very timely manner. I definitely recommend his services to anyone that needs them. .
Description of Work: Inspected the tenant occupied property for mold and what may have caused it to form in a home that previously had no mold issues. He made practical and cost effective recommendations that allowed us to clean any problems and instructions on how to prevent additional problems.

I left a message for Tom and in less than 15 minutes I received a call back. I explained my situation, and after a couple of questions, we determined that I don't have mold in my basement, but Efflorescence. He told me how it occurs, how to remove it (tide, vinegar and water) and that I did not need to contract his services. Talk about an honest guy? Didn't charge me for the consultation, really knows his business, and was extremely kind to boot. I would not hesitate to recommend Tom for any task - this isn't a guy that will take you for a ride and charge for unnecessary items. THANK YOU!

When people contact me about simple problems if it's possible to diagnose the situation over the phone I try to do so and provide some do-it-yourself guidance to deal with them. More serious problems require an on-site investigation and sometimes professional mold remediation work. Our reputation is the result of being helpful, being a source of reliable information, and putting our clients' interests first. Almost all of our business comes from word of mouth referrals, including those that are posted on Angie's List, so it's always nice to see another review. Thanks again! Tom

What a great experience! Tom was thorough, yet explained in terms I could understand the issues in my basement during the inspection. He never tried to "sell" me anything...he pointed out the areas of concern and explained what needed to be done to treat the areas. He also did not over remediate - he kept to the areas that needed work - and pointed out areas which did not have issues (areas that I thought were problematic). He took all of the information and quickly turned around a proposal. It is important to me to work with someone who doesn't look for extra work - someone who is reputable and who does not try to make extra work. Tom earned my trust during his inspection. Frank did the mold removal and remediation. He was on time to start the job. He used a HEPA air scrubber to make sure that the mold was contained. Frank worked efficiently, removing sheet rock, carpeting, shower stall, and a wall area. He treated all of the areas. He also removed all of the debris. He also cleaned all of the areas thoroughly. The carpet was a mess with the padding glued to the floor. Frank scraped all of the padding off the floor. I could not believe how quickly he completed the job and how great the basement looked. I feel much better knowing that the mold has been removed. Both Tom and Frank were personable, friendly guys. Great outlook and positive guys. They are both dog lovers - very helpful with my protective dog in the house. I highly recommend this company and these guys. As I said before - it was a great experience.
Description of Work: Tom Schultz came to my house to inspect the basement for mold. He was very professional - checking the entire basement and showing me where there was mold and explaining thoroughly how they would clean the areas. Tom gave me a detailed quote within a few days. Tom was also very personable, I learned how he started his company and the philosophy of his business, which made me even more comfortable in working with him. Certified Mold Inspection and Remediation Services removed sheet rock and carpeting in the main basement area and removed sheet rock, shower stall and one wall area in the bathroom Once the areas with mold were removed, the areas were sanitized.
