Santa Clarita Mold Inspection…read more We most definitely recommend the professionals at Santa Clarita Mold Inspection, or SCMI as I like to call them. Nick and his crew were prompt and on time, respectful of my house (offered to take their shoes off at the door), found the problem using fancy equipment and methods, and did not try and push some overpriced contractor on me that he was working with on the side. It was refreshing using a company that actually did the job correct and professionally. If you want the job done smooth and done right, choose SCMI.

Not only did they do an excellent job remediating our home, they were also incredibly helpful in dealing directly with the insurance company and (a range of) adjusters.

"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!

He was very transparent with his pricing and there were no hidden fees which was nice. He did not pressure for more sample than what was needed. He even offered sound advice on which type of test is preferred for certain areas (swab vs air). He identified visible mold in multiple areas of my apartment and backed it up with lab-certified air and surface samples. The interpretation report clearly explained the findings -- including the detection of Stachybotrys (toxic mold) in the master bathroom -- and outlined exactly what remediation steps were needed. Highly recommend if you want honest, science-backed results and not just a guessing game. We will be using Michael's services again if needed.

I am deeply concerned with the testing practices and reporting accuracy of West Coast Environmental…read moreTesting. This firm was hired by my property management company to sample an HVAC system in my residential unit following a chronic maintenance issue.The individual inspector, Mitchell Schonfeld, provided a hand-typed incomplete Word document summary report explicitly claiming there were "no contamination concerns" and "no remediation needed" regarding a surface swab of the AC unit.However, when I requested the actual, official laboratory analysis data sheets from PRO-LAB (Report #1941296) that this company utilized, the physical data pages completely exposed the text in their Word document as a total misrepresentation. The official laboratory results for the exact same AC Condenser sample featured a capitalized, clear conclusion of "UNUSUAL" and documented an astronomical 9,000 spores per square centimeter of Cladosporium mold alongside 1,200 counts of active Fungal Hyphae (active fungal growth roots) Furthermore, while their Word document claimed moisture readings were completely "normal" at 12% or below, the inspector simultaneously contradicts himself in the exact same paragraph by noting visible water damage on the ceiling and water stains on the AC closet floorboard and intake area. Because they failed to perform actual moisture mapping and missed a massive 17%-20% active structural wall leak, they declared the unit normal while overlooking a major infrastructure failure. Additionally, the paperwork completely lacked the mandatory signed Chain of Custody tracking document required for a certified environmental report, and the Word document downplayed an active raw count of 266 spores per cubic meter inside the AC intake air test. To make matters worse, the inspector recommended a non-compliant 1/3 bleach and 2/3 water mixture to wipe down the area, a practice that directly violates EPA residential mold guidelines and OSHA standards because bleach cannot penetrate porous substrates and its water content actively feeds underlying hyphae root structures. Because this firm's Word document downplayed a heavy 9,000 spore colonization and completely missed the active infrastructure leak, I was forced to hire an independent industrial hygiene firm out of pocket to protect my health. This second inspection uncovered the true extent of the damage, documenting an active 17%-20% structural moisture leak and 45,000 raw spore counts inside the air ducts. Avoid this firm if you expect thorough, scientifically accurate reporting. I whole heartedly believe that this company intentionally provided false reporting in special interest of the property management - intending to avoid costly proper repair methods and they are being reported to state licensing boards.
