Greg arrives on time and is friendly and professional throughout the process. For the mold inspection, Greg explained what he was doing as he took samples and answered my questions. He later emailed me the mold report when he received the results. For the home inspection, Greg inspected inside and outside the home and pointed out concerns as he found them. He let me know which would need immediate attention and others to watch out for, and what kind of service contractors to call. Again, he answered all my questions and later emailed me the inspection report. Will call him again for other jobs in the future.

No matter how busy you are in the field, "sorry" can go a long way and after my communications with him we opted to go with someone else. I have no time for rude people in our home.

He came to my house the next day, was extremely professional and explored my house to find a source. He read the results from my test and reassured me that these types of tests are not the most accurate way to assess mold. He used multiple different tools and reassured me of negative results that we found! I have had experiences with other companies who come in, take advantage of your vulnerability and emotions and complete try to scam you. Shane couldn't be further from that. He was honest, explained everything and was extremely knowledgeable. If you ever have to deal with mold or asbestos, S&J is the company to use!

I recently found some black mold in my garage and needed it taken care of. Found out I needed to…read morehave some testing done to the drywall and joint compound first to make sure there wasn't any lead or asbestos. Was recommended S&J by one of the mold remediation companies, and through text they were able to schedule me in relatively quickly. Guy came in, was fast and friendly, did his thing. He noticed there was vinyl tile on the floor of the area I needed mold treatment so he asked to take a piece to test. I said sure. Results came back quick, and so did the invoice. They tried to upcharge me an extra $405. I replied to them saying that wasn't the agreed upon price. They "fixed" the error and knocked off $100 from the already inflated price, apologizing that they got some detail wrong in the invoice. I had to reply again, challenging that detail and the extra money they were asking for. It was only then that someone in charge finally got involved, explained they'd had me confused with another client, and backed down to the original quoted price-- but tacked on an extra $40 for the floor tile! I paid the invoice because this was 4 days later, but told them they need to disclose when something is going to cost extra. The whole experience left a bad taste in my mouth. While I can accept an honest mistake, I was left feeling like they were trying to take advantage of me, hoping I'd just pay whatever they asked. Whatever the truth is, S&J Environmental Testing leaves a lot to be desired in regard to their customer service.

"Multiple Layers" of Deception and Unprofessionalism…read more.. In my correspondence with Gene K., a representative of Scope Environmental (cut and pasted from Yelp chat room) mentions "We can definitely help. Our asbestos inspection, survey, and lab results pricing is very competitive. It's $625 for the inspection and report. Each sample is $35. No other fees. Generally, results and reports will be available within 24-48 hours". Gene K. also mentioned the following "Some samples have multiple layers, and that can not be determined prior to taking the physical sample. You are welcome to call in so that you can properly comprehend the procedures". However, UNDISCLOSED FEES can creep into the price charged to the customer, e.g. such as the need to test "multiple layers" of one material; so, "No other fees" is (deliberately) misleading and therefore, deceptive. A field inspector (Daisy Flamenco) of Scope Environmental, arrived at the project site and upon seeing the area that needed sampling, asked the homeowner for a ladder to get her modest stature to the sampling material areas. When sampling the ceiling, Ms. Flamenco was barely able to reach the sampling surface (needed to be on her tippy toes), even with a step ladder (provided by the homeowner). ALL sample takers must come fully prepared for all conditions at the work site and not rely on the homeowner to provide tools, equipment or assistance of any kind to do THEIR job! Ms. Flamenco was dressed casually, no respirator or other appropriate protective equipment or gear, which is not only hazardous to herself, but sends the message to the homeowner (overseeing the work), that asbestos is really not that harmful. Even two and a half years following the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is appropriate if all workers who enter a home, to wear a mask or at least offer to wear one, but Ms. Flamenco failed to show the occupants of the residence, such consideration. Most (professional) people return to bad pre-pandemic habits, even if to protect the home's occupants from the common cold. What is really inconsiderate and unprofessional, is that Ms. Flamenco had disturbed suspected asbestos containing materials by scraping and cutting away material from parts of a furnace and its ducts, leaving the furnace and ducts out-of-order, i.e. if no asbestos or other harmful materials were found, the furnace and ducts could not be safely and effectively used without first repairing them. Leaving carcinogenic materials exposed (cutting, scraping or otherwise removing and exposing asbestos) to those who live at the work site, is hazardous and unprofessional and should never be done this way. Exposing harmful materials puts people and animals at risk of exposure to carcinogens and asbestosis causing particles! Asbestos sample takers should take measures to seal or otherwise cover, exposed asbestos containing materials (when they are through sampling them), to protect home occupants. This experience was a wake-up call to how incompetent workers can make a bad situation, worse!

We contacted Scope Environmental because they specialize in a wide range of services, including sewage and mold remediation. Veronika was courteous, highly responsive, and scheduled a team to come out the same day. Peter and his crew were professional, efficient, and thorough. They quickly extracted the standing water, debris, and sewage, then applied absorbent materials to the wet areas to remove moisture. They also installed heaters and drying equipment to prevent further damage. I appreciated that they returned over the following days to monitor progress and ensure everything was drying properly. Their support during such a stressful situation made a world of difference. I highly recommend this reliable, family-owned company for anyone needing this kind of emergency cleanup services.
