"The field tech that did the testing in my home was very knowledgeable and very helpful in offering advice to specific areas in the home that looked suspicious for testing. After lab testing results were ready, I was contacted and I was given an overview of findings and a report was emailed to me. However, I requested a written report by mail and have not received it yet. I strongly encouraged to purchase chemicals and equipment from a recommended lab that they did business with and perform the treatment myself. Then someone from the recommended lab called and continued to insist that I buy the recommended chemicals I needed and perform the treatment myself. After strongly stating that I did not feel capable of performing the treatment, I ended the call. I then contacted the field tech that did the testing in my home and he recommended a local company that did professional mold removal treatments. So still waiting on written report so the company can see what type of mold that needs treating. Not pleased with Mold Test Company Representative that tried to convince me to buy chemicals and do treatment myself!!! If I do not receive written report in a timely timeframe, I will report back to you and the BBB."

"The testing and remediation process requires several trips to my RV. We have an RV that had a leak issue due to an A/C problem. I called several companies that turned the job down. Most likely considered too small a job. I called Green Homes solutions. I spoke with Frank and he agreed to go out to the RV service shop to take a reading. After an affirmative reading, he made another trip back to treat the entire RV. Several weeks later Luke came out and tested the air and surfaces inside and when the test came back all was well. Frank charged a fair rate and was very responsive to my questions and needs. He didn't make a lot of money off of me, but he knew I needed help and he did just that. Extremely nice, someone that I could be friends with and shows up when he said he will. You need testing and remediation, start with Frank and Green Home Solutions. No regrets here."

FAQs for mold & toxic material test projects in Columbiana, AL

Some companies offer a no‑cost phone or video consultation that screens for red flags. If the discussion points to a real issue, the pro will recommend a paid on‑site inspection. The complimentary call clarifies whether you need full testing, but it isn’t a substitute for samples, lab work, or a written report. Always confirm what the free service covers before you schedule.

A standard inspection, which includes basic air and surface samples, takes an average of two hours. If the pro needs to probe hidden spaces, such as wall cavities or ductwork, plan on up to six hours. Extra time allows the inspector to reach tight areas, collect additional samples, and document findings. Lab analysis is a separate process and often adds several business days to the overall timeframe before you receive the full report.

Mold thrives where moisture lingers and air flow is poor. Common hotspots include bathroom walls, kitchen backsplashes, window sills, HVAC vents, fireplaces, crawl spaces, and enclosed attics. Check these areas regularly—especially after leaks or high‑humidity weather—to catch growth early and avoid costly repairs.

Unchecked mold can knock 20% to 37% off a home’s market value because buyers worry about hidden damage and health risks. Even after remediation, visible staining or a history of major moisture issues can still lower offers and prolong the time on the market. Addressing mold quickly protects both your property’s structural integrity and its resale appeal.
