"Mold testing was thorough but do not let them sell you on their remediation do-it-yourself kit without knowing exactly what you are paying for. The kit is non-refundable and sold by a separate company. They do not tell you that. They transfer you to who you think is another employee to advise about remediation and they are actually transferring you to a completely different company. I was very disappointed when I learned all that. That company does not send out an itemized list of what you paid for unless you ask for it. It has been four days and after spending close to two thousand dollars I have yet to know what I bought."

"The technicians was professional, thorough, and informative. He did a careful look, photographed potential mold, and collected samples. He advised us on how to prevent mold—which was helpful since we were having our roof replaced. The tests came back in time for any roof work."

"Thanks to Virgil Pelton, my master bedroom and bathroom are now virtually free of mold and mildew (no fungus among us). I consider Mr. Pelton a seasoned IAQ professional whose sense organs and air sampling instruments are keenly calibrated to detect and test for the presence of mold and mildew in homes. I was very pleased with Mr. Pelton's responsiveness to my time-sensitive requests and for his resourcefulness in making referrals for services specializing in mold remediation at a reasonable cost. I highly recommend Mr. Pelton for his expertise and high degree of professionalism. Patrick I. Murphy, MSPH Satisfied Customer"

"I have lathe and plaster walls so having the option to have a dog come and smell was the best for us. Corinna and her dog Catalina were very professional (I have 2dogs of my own which we put outside). Catalina and Corinna are very professional pair I would highly recommend them to check for mold if your in need of this type of service. We do have mold and will be dealing with that issue. Mold is an issue in western Washington. I have been sneezing multiple times in a row when I sneeze for a few years and found out that is a mold related issue. "

"Very well done. The mold was a minor issue, but a potential sticking point in our home sale. They cleaned it up and improved ventilation to prevent recurrence. Their warranty is transferrable which helps as we are selling our home, Brant went out of his way to communicate to future buyers that he would stand by his guarantee."

"Pete returned my call in a very reasonable time, and came out the very next morning to take a look at our mold issue.  He was obviously quite knowledgable and was very professional.  He talked about the positive attributes of his company and the fact that he uses non-toxic products in the home.   <br /> He said he would provide a bid via email later that same date, or the following morning, which ended being a couple of days.  However, to his credit, he was closer to his promised timeframe than any of the other contractors I interviewed (3 total).  Same with a requested modified bid - but again, he was quicker than the others (some took weeks, after promising the following date, with no follow-up or explanation). <br /> Aside from Angie's List reviews, I requested (and contacted) a few references he provided - each had very positive things to say, while providing a balance between comments ranging from "very accommodating" and "very willing to do things right the first time," to some honest, minor criticisms which would not have deterred me from using his services. <br /> I can't stress enough that Pete was a professional and I'm confident would have done a great job, which is why I felt it was only right to write  favorable review, even if based only upon first impressions in the bidding process.  He was patient with questions, and didn't mind my asking questions from info I had gained from the Internet, to self-educated myself about the daunting mold remediation process. <br /> As earlier stated, the ONLY reason we did not go with NW Mold Removal was because we just didn't have the time/energy to attempt to sub out the flooring we had elected to change after the mold remediation, plus some additional duct work we needed to do, to address the original problem. <br /> Pete is a 1st Class guy, and if the proper situation arose (hopefully not due to any future mold problems though), we would not hesitate to choose Pete to do the job. <br />"

FAQs for mold & toxic material test projects in Tacoma, WA

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.
