Visible water damage behind water heater missed by Daryl

Although Daryl told some interesting stories, I would not recommend hiring him. The west wall of my entire house flooded from the outside in 2018. I had a 'mold remediation' in 2021. The man removed part of the interior drywall, but he did not remove all of the water damaged materials including the exterior sheathing under my stucco wall. I called Daryl because I wanted to make sure I eliminated all the mold sources in my house. One area I was concerned about and the reason I called Daryl was the attic. Daryl told me that it was not possible for mold to grow in my attic due to the heat here (He refused to even look). He also did a swab test in the west wall and said that the levels of Aspergillus were not high enough to make anyone sick and ignored the fact that I told him that the water damaged exterior sheathing of my house was never removed. He told me all I needed was to get my air ducts cleaned and there were no other areas of concern. I ended up taking the Moldfinders Method class (I highly recommend), and by the time I was done, I learned that the sheathing should have been removed, Daryl used a swab test which only identifies the type of mold (he should have used an air cavity test), mold can grow in my attic and it is there, and I found other places that had water damage by looking for other clues I learned through Moldfinders Method. I also did a Real Time Labs Mycotoxin test and found three types of mycotoxins in my house. I'm attaching pictures of the mold Darryl missed.

Mold, yikes! Glad it is gone

I had the pleasure of hiring Daryl Choby, the owner of MoldEx The Mold Experts, for mold testing and remediation services, and I can't express how satisfied I am with his exceptional level of attention and responsiveness. Unlike my initial home inspector's air mold test, which failed to pinpoint the mold source, Daryl took the initiative to visit my house and collect surface samples, which he assured me were more reliable. True to his word, the test results revealed mold in the cabinets near the kitchen sink and the air ducts. When my contractor discovered moisture readings on the floors during our walkthrough, I immediately reached out to Daryl, and he promptly offered to revisit the house at no additional cost. Armed with his high-tech moisture sensors, he conducted more accurate readings and reassuringly confirmed that there were no concerning mold levels anywhere else. Daryl's dedication to using the most reliable tools and techniques was evident, and it put my mind at ease. I engaged Daryl to remediate the mold and restore the cabinets to a pristine condition since I was also installing new kitchen cabinets. Not only did he efficiently complete the job, but he also ensured that fresh air circulated throughout the house, leaving no room for mold to resurface. To my surprise, Daryl went above and beyond by returning for the next two days to check on the treated area and make sure everything was in order. Moreover, Daryl provided me with a comprehensive report detailing his meticulous remediation efforts and even granted me a transferable warranty in case of any mold resurgence. His commitment to quality and customer satisfaction was truly commendable. I am incredibly pleased with the results and the peace of mind Daryl and MoldEx have provided me. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend MoldEx to anyone in need of mold testing and remediation services. Daryl's professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for his customers are truly commendable, and I am confident that others will have the same positive experience that I had. MoldEx has earned my highest recommendation, and I will be spreading the word to friends, family, and anyone seeking top-notch mold testing and remediation assistance. I have included some of the many pictures Daryl sent me of the disgusting mold he safely remediated.

Upon having our master shower remediated for mold through our home insurance policy, we were on the hunt for a company that could reconstruct the shower. I submitted a request through Yelp, and Global Prevention Services responded and got me scheduled for a consultation immediately. Shortly after this consultation, the Global Prevention Services Project Coordinator, Kimberly, put together several service estimates for me, as we weren't yet sure the direction we wanted to go with the shower tile. Kimberly was patient with us as we picked out materials and went back and forth on what we wanted to do! Due to our mold experience, we ultimately decided we wanted to limit the amount of grout in the shower, in hopes of minimizing the chances of it failing. With that, we started the reconstruction! Throughout the whole process, Kimberly and Rudy, the project manager, were incredibly thorough, communicative, and overall, just really helpful. We could not be more grateful for the time and effort both Kimberly and Rudy spent trying to make our shower dreams come true. I would also love to give a shout out to all of the guys who helped load and unload HUGE porcelain slabs -- that is no easy feat! I think it is also important to thank both the CEO, Michael and the President, Jeanette for checking in throughout the project to ensure our satisfaction. I have never been treated with so much care as a customer. The whole team deserves recognition for the role they played in getting this job to the finish line. The only thing left to do is install the shower door. We can't wait to use and love this shower for years to come!

I live out of state so she kept me updated on progress and if a problem came up, she provided many options and solutions ready to go! Michael and Rudy were so great in explaining what needed to be done and saving me money in places where updates weren't needed for a rental! THEY WILL SAVE YOU MONEY WHERE THEY CAN! Unlike other companies that try to sell you on doing things that aren't needed! They worked so well with my budget, even did extra work here and there to make sure the place looked great for tenants! Don't hesitate to reach out to them! You'll never need to look for another remodeling business again... My go to for any future rental properties in AZ! Such a pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with them again!

Do not use this company!…read more I had an insurance claim where Hercules was one of the companies listed to complete the repair. They have been extremely unethical and do not complete the work they say they will do. In addition, the work they did complete was poorly done and resulted in further damage to the property. When I contacted their team about the additional damage to the property and how it was covered by a warranty they sent someone out two days later. They opened up the wall to locate the leak where they had replaced a shower and all of the piping. They located the leak but stated they would not honor their warranty and it would cost me extra to have it fixed. They left the wall opened up without completing the work and refused to honor their warranty. I watched this company take two months to complete a single room remodel. Often there would be someone "working" all day, with nothing to show for it but two baseboards installed, and a small ceiling painted. They even billed 8 hours of work to tile a 24 square foot space. It was a wide open space with nothing but a cement slab floor. Eight hours? Really? This company is morally questionable and the work they completed resulted in further damage within two months. Absolutely horrible!

Highly Recommend 1-800-Water Damage…read more After trying two other companies, I realized 1-800-Water Damage should have been my first call. I had tenants move out without informing me about a water leak in the guest bathroom, which led to water damage that could have been prevented. To make matters worse, despite my lease stating no smoking whatsoever, the property had a lingering smoke odor--and even an extracurricular smoke odor--that I couldn't eliminate no matter how many times I treated the house myself. The team at 1-800-Water Damage was professional, thorough, and efficient. They not only addressed the water damage but also tackled the odors that had been impossible to remove. Their advanced cleaning techniques worked wonders, leaving the house fresh, clean, and ready for new tenants. I appreciate their attention to detail and dedication to getting the job done right. If you're dealing with water damage or stubborn odors, don't waste time trying other solutions--just call 1-800-Water Damage first. They saved me a lot of stress and made the property feel like home again.

It's not easy to do that, so I respect him for it. Dan asked if I'd still be willing to consider an itemized quote from him for the work, and he sent a detailed one when I agreed. Then there was a long delay on my part, but when I finally accepted and signed the quote, he was on-site within a week and finished all the restoration work in 1 day.

This review is for the first one, a bedroom ceiling/roof leak that needed mold mitigation, asbestos testing and renovation. March 2025: Leak originally started as a moisture spot on the ceiling in October 2024 but my HOA ignored it. By March 2025, the ceiling had become so compromised that water streamed in like a waterfall during a massive storm. My original contact was Noah - he gave me an estimate (along with two other companies). I really appreciated how Noah was communicative, informative and thorough. And! he didn't badger me w/ phone calls & emails, like the other two companies did. He understood that I said I would take care of the situation when I could b/c I was in the middle of Massage Therapy school. I understood the "risks" of having mold & just shut the bedroom off. Fast forward to August 2025 & now we're ready to take care of the situation. Noah followed protocol of getting an asbestos test first. Luckily, it was negative. Then Spencer, their Mitigation Specialist? built a special containment room, inside the guest bedroom that sealed off the contaminated area. Heavy duty fans stayed on for about 72 hours? so the area could be thoroughly dried after being treated w/ some kind of mold treatment. Noah was available via text when I had questions - that was surprising & super helpful! Once Mitigation was completed, Noah connected me w/ Jacob at their Restoration Department. He sent over a stellar crew led by David & they proceeded to rebuild about a quarter of the bedroom - meant to mention that they had to rip out dry wall, scaffolding, etc. This crew rebuilt and then refinished the area, including re-installing wainscotting and painting the ceiling + walls. The results? This bedroom looks gorgeous! We were thrilled with how thorough/smooth ATH was w/ this process & how the renovation turned out. Highly recommend this company for their professionalism, flexibility and high standards. Thanks to the ATH Team!

From the moment I sent a text message, Leigh responded right away--professional, clear, and incredibly efficient. She had me scheduled for an inspection within minutes. We never even spoke over the phone, yet her communication and customer service were top-notch. Unfortunately, I had to cancel the appointment the day before. A full refund was processed immediately--no questions asked. Leigh was so understanding and accommodating of our situation, which left a lasting impression. Fortunately the following week, I was able to reschedule and once again, Leigh made it happen seamlessly. Our assigned inspector Marc Freislinger came out on a Sunday, arriving early and already working when we got there. He was friendly, thorough, and easy to talk to. During the review, he walked us through everything clearly and even offered valuable advice on what to ask the builder regarding repairs. That same evening, he sent a detailed inspection report--complete with clear photos and notes--just as promised. I can't recommend Desert State Home Inspections highly enough. Their professionalism, honesty, and genuine care for their clients truly set them apart. Their pricing is very fair compared to other companies, and they even offer a $100 discount if you use them again before your one-year builder walk through. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and customer-focused inspection company, Desert State Home Inspections absolutely deserves your business. They certainly have mine for years to come. Thanks again Leigh & Marc!
