They were very prompt, thorough and responsive. The charge to come out and inspect was $250 with 200$ to be applied to work if we hired them for cleanup.. We decided to get cleanup through someone else whose bid was about half. The staff are courteous and professional and the report was extremely detailed..

He was incredibly thorough and experienced. He explained everything to me, assured me it was all fixable and explained in great detail how we could clean up the mold issue ourselves since our case wasn't very bad. He checked for moisture in another location in the house and helped me problem solve that issue as well. He had a good sense of humor and lightened my stress right away with his "no problem" attitude. I would hire this company again in a heartbeat.

Inspection went very well. They are excellent in the work that they do, and could answer any question. They arrived on time and did not miss anyplace in the house during the inspection of mold, and were finished within an hour. At the end they sat down with me and explained the type of mold found, if it was actve (New) mold or not, and how to fix it. Went over with me all the areas inspected and these guys are really excellent. No problems with them. Very happy with the service and would use them again.
Description of Work: Inspected for visual mold in every area of the inside the home and basement. They also take air samples, but in my case it was not needed. Also took detailed pictures of areas where mold was found. Gave detailed report to me with pictures, showing mold areas and recommendations were on the report how to fix the problems.

I think they did alright with the job. They were a little expensive for one day work but they did alright. I don’t have anyone to compare their price to, I just contacted them to the work. I can’t judge the quality of their work. They were up in the attic and did their thing and said that it was all taken care of. They gave us a quote and stuck with it. The guy who came was very courteous and nice.

Given the potential issues with a problem like this, I did alot of research and interviewed a number of potential providers. Kathy and Jody in the office were clearly experienced and leaps and bounds above the other services in the amount of information they provided on the phone and depth of of their knowledge. Although there was an initial scheduling problem, it was dealt with quickly and Jeremy showed up on the day scheduled. He explained the process in detail so we knew what to expect, was very mindful of the living spaces, put down plastic everywhere, totally sealed the work space off and did a great job. It was all done in a single day and we feel like we're better off that it was when the house was brand new. We would not hesitate to use them again - tho they do have a guarantee that this will not be repeated - or recommend them highly.
Description of Work: When a dryer vent came loose, in the attic, it let moist air into the space and resulted in a mold problem. An initial inspection - a VERY complete inspection, resulted in a nice report that included pictures, detailed the issues and outlined the solutions. We scheduled them to come out and make it 'go away'.

Removed flooring, walls, cabinets etc. right down to the foundation and the studs. ALL THIS based on their so called testing...turns out they think a scientifically valid test is the "VISUAL TEST" ! When we insisted on a real laboratory testing be done to clear the house and prove that they had done what they promised to do, Environix (Tim) got all huffy and charged us an additional $ 400.00. The test came back positive...off the charts positive for a number of contaminates. Note: the air quality test was performed in the center of where their remediation work was done. Environix stood firm that we would have to pay for any additional or corrective work to do. When you read in the contract or on thier web-site: Whole home, holistic approach, "LIFETIME WARRENTY. GUARANTEED PROTECTION" Don't you believe it. However, they did initially show up on time. For additional removal of contaminates we went with Clean Crawls and they did a great job for a reasonalble price.

Response from Environix Testing & Remediation
We're certainly not above making mistakes. The reason we have such a great reputation is not because we're absolutely impervious to mistakes, but because we immediately rectify the situation. This complaint baffles me because this is the first we've heard of any dissatisfaction from the customer. The project was completed in June of 2013 and no frustrations were communicated to us. After seeing the negative review, I emailed her right away to ask how we can address any concerns. She replied that was unwilling to discuss the project at all. Honestly, I think she has us confused with another contractor. I reviewed all our invoices for the project and there are no bills for $400. There were other contractors working on the project at the same time who I know she was very frustrated with. If the customer will contact us, we’d be more than happy to take all measures to make it right.

Josh showed up promptly for his appointment, and did an inspection of the attic and the existing fans in the house. He determined that there was not enough ventilation on average to cycle the air in the house for air quality and moisture reduction reasons. That lack of ventilation combined with the original design of the attic, lead to a pocket of moist air in one corner that was the source of the mold. He ran me through the details and was very knowledgeable. Since I'm in the process of selling my house, he was extremely accommodating in getting me the report and bid before the normal three day window. In fact, everyone I spoke with at the entire company was extremely professional and polite. Christian showed up on the scheduled day to do the actual remediation work. Again, extremely professional and early. The first hour he was here was spent putting down plastic everywhere he would be working. He even built a plastic "booth" from the attic down to his plastic on the floor, around his ladder. The attention to detail and extreme cleanliness was very impressive. They probably aren't the cheapest, but with their attention to detail AND the transferable lifetime (of the building!) warranty against the return of mold, it is worth it.
Description of Work: Remediated mold in attic, added additional ventilation to attic, added increased ventilation to house to reduce moisture and prevent the reoccurence of mold in the future.

The whole inspection took only about half an hour- he took pictures, performed tests and made notes. A few days later they emailed us a 12 page report complete with pictures and estimates. The work needed isnt' as expensive as we had anticipated. Good advice and service.
Description of Work: Tim came and performed a mold inspection for us. He is very knowledgable and the office staff is able to answer almost any quesnos you have about the tests and remediation.

The work was a little drawn out due to having to coordinate with roofing contractor as well, but once the contract was signed and we were on their schedule they delivered on work and time exactly as they laid out they would. Very happy with the work, and still have one more condo we are waiting on to complete the same job on.
Description of Work: Had a condo that had previous mold issues in the attic. Company came in, reviewed all attics in our condo complex, and gave ideas for repairs and corrections as needed. Came into the one unit that brought the mold to light, did 100% guarantee treatment on the unit. Worked with homeowner who is very picky and has been very over the top to get the work done just so. Once the work was completed I have heard nothing else from the Homeowner. What this tells me, they are more then satisfied with the work and the access and clean up that Environix did for us, them the homeowner.

Environix came to my house to determine if I had a mold problem. They inspected the house from sub-basement to attic. They checked for air leaks and ventilation air flow and took an air sample for laboratory testing. The result was no mold problem, but probably an air quality problem due to not enough air circulation and holes between floors and walls that let the wrong air circulate. The made recommendations about how to remedy the air problems. The most significant was to turn off the ultra-violet light on the heating system. It ionizes the air as it passes thru and creates ozone, which is unhealthy to breath. I unplugged the unit on the spot. They were very thorough and explained everything they were doing and what they discovered.

Response from Environix Testing & Remediation
[member name removed], I am having trouble understanding the nature of your complaint. We're no different than any plumber, electrician, HVAC contractor or other service professional that charges an initial inspection fee. The reason we charge is not to pad our pockets, it barely covers our cost. We charge for an inspection because it allows us to be much more candid about the true needs of the project. In well over 50% of the projects, the inspection reveals no need for professional mold remediation. Either the work can be performed by normal home cleaning techniques or another profession, such as a roofer, is needed. By charging a fee for the initial inspection, this allows us to cover our cost and give the client an honest appraisal of the situation. You'll find the opposite is true of companies that do not charge for the initial call out. They just happen to find a need for professional mold remediation on every project. Additionally, in your phone call to us you asked us to come to your home and start performing the mold remediation, site unseen. There are companies that operate this way. However, they require you to sign a blank check for all potential charges. This results in extreme gouging of the customer. By charging a nominal inspection fee, it allows us to thoroughly investigate the problem and provide a firm price. Less than 5% of all remediation projects result in up-charges to the client. If you ask the companies that provide free bids about their rate, I guarantee it will be dramatically higher. I understand that you may not like this approach. However it seems a bit unfair to give us an F based solely on this criteria. James Mallory V. President Environix
