If you have or even think you have mold/fungus issues in your home, Virgil Pelton is the man to call. Not only is he knowledgeable, and professional, he will hold your hand and help you to resolve your issue. I used his recommend remedial company and they were fabulous. He helped me every step of the way from the time I called him to when all was done and no more mold/fungus!! He is honest and reasonable. Please, anyone out there who may have mold issue PLEASE contact Virgil. You want the air tested before and after remedial work. To make sure there is NO more mold spores in the air. He answers any and all questions. And explains everything in detail. He is a very calm guy and he prayed for wisdom before work. And prayed after the final visit. Wow!! He is God sent for me. We dealt with this mold issue since 10/2020. We should have called him first and saved a lot of headache and money$$$.

His technique for measuring indoor mold onto cassettes sent to lab was spot on. My disappointment was that he did not bring a ladder to inspect the attic and was too big to fit through crawl space entry. Thus neither the attic nor crawl space were evaluated for presence of mold, the reason for the visit.

Virgil went through the whole house with us, advising us of spots which could lead to problems eventually and how to prevent those from happening. He used to be in construction and a home inspector so he knows exactly what to look for. He was extremely courteous throughout and very thorough. He also helped us with next steps and was very focused on saving us money without compromising on total remediation. We would totally recommend owners in similar situations (who suspect there might be a mold issue in their house) give Virgil a call.

OUR WORK

HomeAdvisor allows Service Professionals to post information about themselves and their business on their profile. HomeAdvisor does not review or verify the information representations set forth in those profiles as they are self-reported by the Service Professional.

To find more licensing information for your state, visit our Licensing Requirements page. Note that some states require local or county level licensing and you should verify whether or not your pro is properly licensed.

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
