Highly Recommended: MOLD Specialists Who Have Inspections Down to a Science!…read more We recently hired Tim from Mold Inspection Sciences to come out to a 3500 sq. Foot 50-year-old inherited home in South Orange County. We are currently performing our due diligence in preparing the property for sale, and investing in this type of specialized inspection is simply the smart thing to do. From start to finish, Tim was fantastic. He was on time, friendly, and highly knowledgeable. What we appreciated most was his communication style--he handled all of our questions with absolute ease, explaining the technical details in a way that was clear and easily understood.  When we received the final report, we were blown away by how comprehensive yet easily understandable it is. Rather than a simple pass/fail summary, their reports are incredibly detailed and leave no stone unturned. They include:  An room-by-room physical and visual assessment breakdown.  We did not have every single room tested, but we tested any suspect areas where we could see there had been prior leaks. Moreover, their thermal imaging equipment can spot leaks that we could not see. Detailed ambient indoor air sampling alongside localized outdoor baseline controls.  Advanced wall cavity core sampling to actively look for hidden moisture issues.  Direct surface swab testing of several suspect areas. Exact diagnostic tracking data, including localized relative humidity levels and digital moisture-meter readings.  Yes, humidity over 5k or 60 percent makes mold grow. You need good air circulation as well as good dehumidifiers when you live close to the ocean. Clear photographic documentation with matching room diagrams and structural descriptions.  We knew of several areas that absolutely needed testing. And Tim was great in suggesting what areas we might want to test for hidden leaks based on his thermal image readings. He also pointed out where such tests were not needed. What makes this company unique is that they are true, dedicated environmental specialists. Because they literally have the inspection process down to a science and utilize top-notch, highly calibrated equipment, their operation is streamlined. As a result, their pricing was extremely fair and competitive--in fact, their rates were actually lower than some generic, non-specialized home inspectors we looked into.  While initially we planned to have 1 company do all the environmental testing, we found it was less costly and better testing to go with specialists rather than "we do it all companies". It was a super-smart decision. We went with Mold Sci (Tim) for the mold testing and a 2nd specialty company for the asbestos and lead testing (Enviro Diagnostics, Costa Mesa). If you are buying a home, selling your home, or managing an estate property, we highly recommend both companies we worked with and would hire them both again. Tim and Mold Inspection Sciences were top-notch... professional, friendly, scientifically thorough, and excellent value.

Extremely fair approach to solutions and pricing 2. Clear explanations of a situation - calmed me down considerably (I was furious) 3. Incredibly responsive - outstanding communication 4. Extremely high quality work 5. Honest, clear, helpful, REALISTIC Andrew came in to help AFTER I had a different mold inspection company representative dramatically look at my wall and attempt to create complete and unwarranted panic. To say I was ambivalent about working with anyone in the mold industry is an understatement. Trust level = 0. I was ready to despise and write off the entire industry. Andrew was completely honest, upfront and realistic from the first phone call. He straight-talked us, gave us a clear sense of what the results we saw really meant and told us before any work started what he expected to see, what he would probably need (and more importantly NOT need) to do, and how much it would cost. Much of what the first company was suggesting was superfluous and expensive. Andrew took it way down with logic, an honest and rational approach. I can't say enough good things about him. We googled our situation to the ends of the internet and everything Andrew did was literally the perfect solution. Not too little, not too much. Hire this company, it may be the only great one out there.

He also works quickly which has been really important with leaks, Andrew also has a network of other professionals he helps bring in to do related work (ceiling repair, deck repair), so he really thinks about providing full service assistance even in areas he doesn't focus on. I highly recommend Santa Monica Mold & Environmental and will always use them.

Michael at Pro Environmental Testing was thorough and professional throughout the entire mold…read moreinspection process. 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.

The first thing he wanted to do when he came to my apartment was sit down and listen to my concerns and thoughts regarding the inspection. I have never hired anyone who actually made the effort to listen like Mark did. I decided to do an ERMI test and I'm so glad I did- He was very thorough in his inspection and he saw things that I hadn't even noticed. His attention to detail was impressive to say the least. Once I got my report and I had a phone consult regarding my results, Mark explained EVERYTHING, was very patient with me and my concerns, and he helped me formulate a plan of what to do next..thank you Mark!!! Highly recommend!!

Frank was very responsive to all of my questions, and gave very thorough replies. He welcomed more questions and was available via phone, email, and text.

To start, Frank is one of the most considerate, kind, and genuinely knowledgeable people I've come across in any business setting. From day one, it was clear that he cared--not just about doing the job, but about helping us navigate a stressful situation and meet tight deadlines. He went out of his way to accommodate our timeline when he really didn't have to, which speaks volumes about his character. His communication is on another level. He responds to calls and texts almost immediately, keeps you constantly informed, and makes sure you never feel in the dark about what's happening. That level of responsiveness and transparency is rare, and it made a huge difference for us. Beyond that, his entire team operates with the same level of professionalism and attention to detail. They were punctual, respectful of our home, and clearly take pride in the quality of their work. Everything was handled efficiently, cleanly, and with care. What stood out most is that Frank treats you like more than just another client--he genuinely wants the best outcome for you and goes the extra mile to make sure you get it. It's hard to find people like that. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Frank and PropertyHealth to anyone. If you're looking for a team that is reliable, communicative, and truly cares, you won't find better.

They are the gold standard of professionalism: insightful, honest, punctual, and incredibly responsive. What sets them apart--and the reason I value working with them so much--is their total lack of conflict of interest.

You never have to worry about "up-selling" on unnecessary repairs. It has been great working with Yaron! I highly recommend
