Apex came out the same day, called 30 minutes before arriving, and performed all test. The owner answered all my questions, initial inspection was good and did not show any mold issues, so now I am waiting for the lab results.
Description of Work: I had Apex come out to investigate if I had a mold issue from a leaky roof. They performed an air test, inspected the walls, and used an inferred camera to check for moisture in and behind the walls.

The service went wonderfully and as I await the results of the inspection, I feel good knowing it's being handled by such a professionalism, reliable company. Please refer above for details but again, I would recommend this company without hesitation to anyone requiring their services.
Description of Work: The staff came to my home and performed a mold inspection. We initially scheduled an appointment for 1/7/13 between 0900-1100 and they showed up on time. What's even better, and speaks to their responsiveness and professionalism, is they called me the day before the appointment to confirm as well as offer me another appointment time if my schedule so happened to change. I've never had a company call to give me another appointment time without me calling first to reschedule. I graciously declined and kept my initial scheduled appointment. I showed my areas of concern in the house and they provided insight as to the process of mold inspection and then remediation during their assessment. I was told to wait for the lab results and from there, we would have an idea as to the next steps. If remediation is necessary, then I would allow Apex to continue their work in my home due to their professionalism and want to aid me in solving the problem. They seemed to CARE for my home and its residents and were willing to help me SOLVE the problem; two qualities that most repair firms don't seem to know much about anymore, in my humble opinion. I would recommend this company to my friends and family, if so needed.

We paid Apex more than the going rate, thinking that you get what you pay for. Unfortunately, they did barely any work (essentially just brought in big HEPA filters and left them there for a while), and after some research, we learned that they have lied about their credentials - the accrediting organizations had never heard of them, and forced them to take down their logos. When we began legal proceedings against them for consumer fraud, they settled with us, but we never got back the full amount we spent, the time we wasted, and we had to find another company to do the mold abatement. The new company - which did a solid job - confirmed that Apex hadn't really done anything, there was still plenty of mold around, and that they had taken samples incorrectly, vastly overestimating the amount of mold in the first place. Don't waste your time, your money or gamble your health with this rip-off artist.
Description of Work: We contacted Apex to investigate and take samples in the basement of a home we were purchasing. They took samples and gave us an estimate; we chose them based on some positive reviews and various professional accreditations they listed on their website.

My experience so far has been extremely pleasant. I like that David and Lea is always available to answer my questions. I will post another review after the remediation has been completed.
Description of Work: I contacted Apex Mold Specialist to perform a mold inspection for my home. Lea answered all my questions regarding what to expect from the inspection, total cost and any additional cost that might incur due. I had requested that the inspector call me from the house if there was a need for additional testing prior to performing any additional test. The inspector did exactly what I asked and explained why I needed the test. David the owner also called me once the inspection was completed and told me that the results would be done in a few days and he would call to review the report. David thoroughly reviewed the results and remediation plan. David told me he offers a guarantee for his work and said there will be no charge if the mold reappeared. I felt extremely comfortable with his recommediations and scheduled the remediation plan in early January.

We used this company because there was an Angie's List deal for mold inspection. The mold inspector was punctual and interested in answering all questions. However I felt the answers could have been more detailed. We were looking for a true expert opinion and a company that would walk us through all of the steps with thorough explanations considering the cost of the initial consultation. Although we ultimately did not use his service, the inspector still followed up with a call to inquire about our satisfaction with his visit. We would have given him a B+ overall if that rating was available.

I purchased a $99 whole house mold inspection a while ago and finally got around to contacting APEX today for an appointment. I left a message and got a call back within the hour from David. I mentioned that when I went on Angies List to get his contact information I noticed that the deal expired last month. He told me I was correct but said he would be perfectly happy to refund my money once I provided my address and email address. I agreed that would be the best solution since I had in fact purchased his inspection service by mistake and had actually meant to purchase a $99 heating inspection in the first place. He said that he normally speaks to clients before he does the inspection to get some background on their mold issues. Since I don't have a known mold issue he said he probably would have recommended against the inspection any way , regardless of the expiration date. In any event he was prompt in getting back to me, quick to offer a reasonable resolution and came across as very professional in our conversation. I hope I never have a mold issue but I'm sure I will contact Apex if I do.

He moved from room to room, with various machines, one of which was an air sampling machine. David tested 6 rooms in about 45 minutes. we had to move furniture which slowed us down. He was helpful in all all phases of the process.
Description of Work: David the technician showed up on time and took air samples and swab samples in multiple rooms in my mother's large apartment, which pushed the price up from the base price. Very professional and pleasant and did not have the feeling they were trying to perform extra unnecessary services, other than those we requested. They also take an outdoor air sample. He explained the process clearly and the company seemed trustworthy, a concern of mine.

David showed up at noon, on time (scheduled between 11 - 1). He was quick & through when he did the testing. I did not expect there to be the extra charge for the '2nd sample' as I did not realize two air samples meant not being able to do the entire apartment - only one air sample is included in the initial cost (which is documented in the contract so they are not trying to fool you - just that it was not properly explained to me that if I wanted the entire apt. done, which is a one bedroom, that it would cost extra...I thought the 2nd air sample would have to do with doing something extra or above and beyond the apartment in entirety-) - just be prepared to pay for the 2nd air sample if you want them to check mold in more than one room. Overall I am impressed with David's and Leah's responsiveness, courteousness and efficiency. I am waiting to get the results now. Thank you, David and Leah, for your help today. Wish you continued success...

From the very beginning, he put me at ease, explaining that the mold would not travel and that everything would be taken care of. His estimate was the lowest of the three people who came and hismanner reassured me.
Description of Work: mold remediation, hepa vacuum,disinfect, deodorize after inspection; air movers, air scrubbers,air purifiers and dehumidifier were used as well as a wet vac. He also did a follow-up to make certain everything was done correctly. I was extremely satisfied and recommended him to my friend.

We are still in the process.
Description of Work: We called Apex after seeing the positive reviews. We have had a weird smell in one part of the house that no amount of cleaning could get rid of. Finally realized that it might be mold ..... Contacted Apex and set up an appointment for a couple of days later. David was able to come on a Sunday morning (which was really convenient for us). He was very professional and low key. Right away we were asking "what do we do with the mold, etc.?" and he told us to not get ahead of ourselves and wait and see the results - that maybe there wasn't even a problem. We appreciated that he was not pushy - very knowledgeable without trying to sell us anything. We hope to get the results soon and will follow-up from there.

I hope to write more when the lab results are in but overall I would recommend Apex again. They were prompt and very professional and after all the losses I've been through this was one of the positive experiences I've had in the past month.
Description of Work: My apartment got flooded during Hurricane Sandy and had 4 feet of water. The management company finished the repairs and I wanted to get the place checked out for mold before moving back in. I called and David offered to come at the earliest convenience to do the tests. He took air samples inside and outside the building, and made various measurements for the lab and looked at the walls through an infared machine. Overall he assured me that from what he's seen that I'll be ok, and that the lab results will reconfirm that I can move back in without any problems.

Two representatives came to our rental property in Red Hook and tested for mold in the basement and first floor apartment, using various diagnostic equipment, and also took a sample of the air in both areas, to take back to test in the lab. They documented all their testing with photographs, they were very thorough, and communicative, explaining to me each step of the process as they completed it. Overall they were extremely professional, friendly, and efficient. A very pleasant experience.

I was extremely pleased with the service. The technician, Nelson Rodriguez, was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He and his assistant were punctual and got into the work very quickly. He explained in clear and thorough terms the nature of the work that was to be performed and the job was done in a very timely and efficient manner. He and his assistant were a pleasure to work with and I will definitely use Advent again. I completely recommend this firm.

Arrived promptly with tools in hand and went room to room inspecting for mold. At end of review let me know that I did not have a mold problem and gave me a recommendation on how to avoid mold in basement as it was my largest concern.
Description of Work: Inspected my home for mold more for my families piece of mind and myself. We recently had purchased a home and wanted to make sure we did not have any unseen issues with mold. Angieslist was running a promotion we took advantage of and thought it would be a great time and value to get a general inspection.

I purchased a "Big Deal" coupon for a whole house mold evaluation and then scheduled an appointment. When the inspector arrived he asked me why I schedule the inspection and I explained I'd moved into a new home and could not identify a "moldy" smell and that I was worried about moisture/mold I could not see. Only a foot inside the door, he told me that this is why the company has pulled the Big Deal offer off of Angie's List, because of people like me. The company cannot make money off of people like me. He then looked around the area of the home where the smell is for a few minutes with a moisture instrument, and then spent 1 minute in the basement with the moisture instrument. He then said he didn't smell mold and and that there was no mold in the home. (In fact, a home inspector pointed out mold around the windows in the basement, but the mold inspector did not inspect the basement completely, so he did not see it.) He left a pamphlet for me indicting that the company does extreme clean-up work on some serious mold jobs - and may in fact do this very well. And maybe I do not have a serious mold issue, which would be a relief, and the reason why I scheduled an inspection- but I am writing this evaluation because this experience was awkward, unprofessional and obnoxious.
