Geric provided timely service. He is very knowledgeable and asked great questions to determine some specifics about the inspection. Thank you!!! read more

I absolutely recommend check for mold Geric for the to go to mold inspectors. Geric's work is impeccable, they are fast to give an assessment and provide the report to you. I had an absolutely excellent experience working with this company. Even after their work was done, they were easy to get in contact with for additional questions and were very fast to respond to me. They are very reasonably and fair priced as well. You cannot go wrong by choosing them. All in all I give them 5 stars. read more

I highly recommend Geric!!! He came to our house a few years ago and did a thorough mold inspection. I really liked his detailed report explaining all the areas that we had to address. Since then we had a water leak and had to open up a wall to remediate it. We found mold in the insulation so I emailed Geric about it. He was so kind and reviewed the photos and videos of the construction site and gave me his honest opinion that the mold didn't look concerning. I was so thankful to have him ease my concerns. There's so much talk about mold and a lot of fear that comes with it. I think certain companies could really take advantage of people's fears about mold, but I am thankful to have found Geric because he is very knowledgeable about mold and gives an honest opinion about if he thinks testing is necessary. His pricing is very reasonable too. read more

Geric was able to come on the same day that I called. After a roof leak was found that had caused damage inside my house I was worried about mold. Sure enough, he was able to detect two types of mold. I received a computerized, detailed report a couple of days after taking air samples. Great information for the doctor of an immunocompromised person living in the home or anyone who may have unexplainable illnesses. read more

I hired Check for Mold to inspect my parents home for possible mold. They were an excellent company to work with. An inspection was done, and they gave us clear recommendations on the work that needed to be done. Their price for the inspection was fair and they are very knowledgeable and professional. read more

I reached out to Geric via Yelp on Saturday wanting to get my house checked for mold. He not only replied within minutes, but we were on the phone talking soon thereafter. He graciously took my call while at his sons baseball game and set up a quick appointment for the evaluation. Once he came to my house, he was prompt, cordial and very informative. He checked almost every wall in my house for moisture and took his time doing it. He informed me that he didn't recommend any environmental testing as he didn't see any moisture in the house. He could've easily said we should do it and we would've done it. I appreciate his honesty, his recommendations and his saying what he would do if it were his home. Thank you very much Geric. Stand up guy and great business to work with. read more

I was referred to Geric from my mold remediator. I had previously used a different mold inspector and was not pleased with their service so I was really glad to get Geric's referral. He was prompt to reach out to me after I left my initial message. He was also very prompt and flexible in scheduling our post-remediation inspection, including coming out on a Saturday! He explained the process and turn around time, he sent a thorough report, and his fees were extremely reasonable (a less expensive than the previous inspector we used). We hope not to have mold issues again but are relieved to have discovered Geric and the level of service he provides! We HIGHLY recommend checkformold.com! read more

It took me awhile to leave this review because I had mixed feelings. Geric was easy to work with, communicative, and on time. However, he only tested the areas that I pointed out and did not do an inspection of the whole house. When he got to the house, I walked him around and showed him spots where we had visible mold and where I suspected mold. Those were the only areas he tested. I thought he would do a full inspection of common areas that might have mold, like kitchens and bathrooms. We found out a couple months later that one of the spots he didn't test (under the kitchen sink) had mold that had been there for awhile. If he had done a full inspection it might have been discovered a lot earlier. read more

Geric responded quickly to my questions and was able to complete an inspection within a couple days. Also, I received results for a mold test very quickly. Geric spent time more time talking to me about the possibilities than he had to and I really appreciated it. read more

Geric is awesome. He is friendly and quick to respond and come out. He didn't find any moisture readings in the house and didn't feel the need to take air quality samples when he could of easily taken them and charged for it. He is honest and reliable. Thank you Geric for easing our concerns. Highly recommend him. read more

Gric was very knowledgeable on mold and room temperature etc. He was sensitive to our needs and understanding that our testing (renters) was for our sole purpose due to health concerns. Thank you, Gric - Sincerely a San Francisco Giants Fan. read more

We had an issue with mold behind a wall and Geric was so great. He was able to come out and take samples. Very professional and knowledgeable. We got our report and recommendations the next day. Definitely recommend! read more

Geric was extremely nice and helpful with my current mold situation. He explained everything thoroughly and provided the info requested. Would definitely recommend read more

We had some mold in our home and wanted to get the air tested before moving onto any remediation. Geric was at our home the next day and had results back in 24 hours with a full report. He was incredibly friendly and thorough in his work. His pricing was $50 cheaper than another company we called. read more

Do NOT trust the results for mold detection from Geric or anyone else at this company!!! He does not conduct the tests properly and I even called him out on it. He is unethical and is NOT certified by a recognized state agency. My apartment has visible black mold, 4 types of mold total. The worst part is that I had several inspections by an ACAC certified inspector and the results from air samples, swabs and a SIM test all showed toxic black mold and very high levels of airborne black mold spores!!! Geric and checkformold.com were hired by the crooked property manager of OMC Apartments in Newport Beach to show that mold didn't exist. Well, it does and it's extremely dangerous. How dare anyone put my families health in danger!!! My family has started treatment for very high levels of black mold mycotoxins in our system. Thank goodness that UCI has a team of environmental toxin specialists and teams that are certified in the Shoemaker Protocol. This is no joke- the long term medical issues can lead to MS or even Parkinson's disease. Please review www.survivingmold.com for more information and please know the symptoms of mold poisoning! 12/27/18 - I have read Geric's explanations. 1. He did not conduct the tests properly and he knew it. I questioned him in front of the property manager about windows & doors needing to be closed for at least 24 to 48 hours prior to an air sample test. The windows and doors of my apartment were NOT closed during two of his mold test inspections nor was I ever instructed to do so. The certified mold inspector I hired insisted that the the apartment be closed for no less than 24 hours but strongly recommended at least 48 hours to obtain a proper reading. When I called Geric out on this substantial error, he sheepishly agreed that the apartment should be closed for at least 24 hours ... and then asked, "why, are they open?" My apartment is small and anyone could see that the windows, sliding door and back door were open! 2. His equipment is not anything compared to what I have seen in my research as sophisticated, current, and top of the line equipment. I'm not an expert, but the equipment he had compared to other mold inspectors was a joke. 3. Geric's certifications - please do the research to understand the different levels of certification and what this means to an inspectors level of knowledge and hopefully integrity. I also thought it was strange that a mold inspector drove a really nice Mercedes. 4. Bottom line- Geric provided 2 mold inspections that were NOT conducted properly and completely contradicted the lab results on me of the alarmingly high levels of mycotoxins in my system. Blood and urine mycotoxin lab results can not lie!!! read more

Derek was very helpful. I am realtor and was inquiring about mold remediation nit really knowing whether I needed it or not. He took the time to explain the process and educate me. He was very courteous, friendly and made some recommendations. read more

I called Geric late Friday evening and he called me Saturday morning. I left a total of four voicemails with mold inspectors and only Geric and another company called back. Geric was kind to fit me in on Sunday because I think I must of come off as a nervous reck with my tenant concerns of mold. Geric price for inspection and lab testing, is competitive and honestly much less than the last inspector I used. Geric is certified, well qualified, knows his mold spores, approachable and detailed. read more

Geric inspected my house because a foul smell was coming in my house when it rained. He replied quickly to my request and was upfront about the cost and what it included. He took two samples and gave us the results as soon as they were available. He didn't take unnecessary samples which helped with the cost. I would recommend Check for Mold if you have any concerns about your home. read more

We had a good experiance First time dealing with this type of issue and he made it easy to understand. He got the report to us in a timely manner. Would recommend. Price was good. The first place i called wanted more than twice the amount. read more

Great quick service. Took his time, answered all my questions. Would recommend to anyone looking for detection service.

HIGHEST POSSIBLE RECOMMENDATION * Geric is AWESOME! Not only did he schedule the inspection the minute I requested one, he was FAST professional and the results were delivered as promised within 24hrs! Geric is easy going and easy to talk with, he not only answered all my questions, he took the time to talk to my boyfriend on the phone when he had questions - EXCELLENT customer service. His recommendations were greatly appreciated and his prices were the absolute BEST price - some other companies listed here on yelp wanted more than double I will use him again and he has our absolute highest possible recommendation Why pay more for an inspection when you don't have to? Call Geric - he's great - very easy to work with and he sends you the results lightening fast! THANK YOU again, GERIC! we truly appreciated your outstanding service and price read more

Left Geric a voicemail at midnight and he texted us back immediately and then called us in the morning. We let him know about the urgency of our situation and he came out and sent out our results for testing the same day. We received results next day. Not only that, he quoted us for 4 test but ended doing 3 and adjusted his quote. Geric was professional, friendly and very quick! Highly recommend! read more

I sent Geric some pictures of what I thought could be mold. He asked me some questions, and it was decided that it was very very likely not mold, and that we should just try a cleaning first and if there are any more issues to contact him. He reassured me when I was anxious, when He could have exploited that anxiety to come out here and waste my time and money, but he didn't. That's pretty incredible. There aren't many people this honest or friendly . If I ever have issues in the future I will definitely utilize his service. He is not trying to con you, which is a big concern in the mold business. read more

Found this company on Yelp and was very glad I did so. Geric was extremely helpful, friendly, patient, polite, and professional. He came to the house I am currently renting and did an inspection; he was very quick yet thorough. He also demonstrated a lot of patience when I came to the many questions I had and he used his better judgment when it came to the sampling certain areas of the house. I truly appreciated his honest opinion as he only took the samples he deemed necessary and did not try to "upcharge" me for samples he thought would be unnecessary. The report and lab results come in quickly so you know right away instead of waiting on pins and needles. Thank you Geric! read more

Very grateful to have found Geric. He is really impressive with his knowledge. He always comes on time and has a great attitude. I have now worked with him two times and both times have been great experiences. Highly appreciate his services and his high level of customer service. read more

Geric was hands down a life saver. Came on short notice and explained everything to both my wife and I, PLUS our rude Landlord that showed up only after I told him I had a professional coming out and wouldn't allow his handyman to sweep this under the rug. SHOWED UP ON TIME! Can't tell you how impressed I was for a same day add on and no extra charge. His customer service went above 5 stars and his rates were by far less then all the competition. MOLD IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT REQUIRES A PROFESSIONALS EXPERTISE. Don't waste your time looking for someone else. Geric was the most affordable and professional option in the Greater Los Anglese area. read more

My company has been using CFM for years! Great service...prompt and thorough! I really like the fact that they take the samples and then send them to a 3rd party (Hayes Laboratories) for the accuracy and testing, so there is no bias. Purely fact base results. Results are usually back within 48 hrs. read more

Gerick is the man! He's deal with my fickle realtor and selling agent who don't want me to get him in there since I already signed off on inspection contingencies. Just want to make sure my newborn baby isn't going to get sick from some nasty mold, or some non-worrisome mold under the sink. I'll keep you posted after he does his thing tomorrow! Great call backs, texting, and customer service so far. Has expressed 0 frustration dealing with my asshole realtors too! read more

I called Geric and set an appointment with him and he was prompt and on time the day of my appointment. Though I was not home to actually meet him. During our phone conversation he was very polite and personable. Geric, thank you for doing a thorough inspection in my apartment and getting me the lab results back quickly. I appreciate your service. I will recommend you. AND your quality service is more than a 5 star. You inspecting my apartment and finding black mold is huge. I APPRECIATE YOU. read more

I called Geric at Check For Mold because of all the great reviews. I was very pleased with his inspection process and would highly recommend. Thanks Geric. read more

Geric is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He's a small shop with an expert who handles it himself instead of outsourcing to less knowledgeable people. He's better and cheaper than the other guys out there and takes pride in his work. Look at these stellar reviews. I highly recommend these guys. read more

Geric was thorough, professional and provided superb service. He appears knowledgeable in what he is doing and information he is providing. Overall, great service. read more

Geric was Awesome. I am a landlord and he knows how to deal with problematic tenants. If you are a landlord and have any mold issues this is your man. He will keep the tenant calm and not cause any kind of alarm. He only releases the reports and findings to you as you are the client. His findings for me included lab tests and a full report of what he found. We all know some tenants can be picky, look for problems, work the system, and threaten to go to the city or health department. He's aware of this and is careful of what to say to the tenants. I would be happy to recommend him and would definitely use him again. read more

Geric was absolutely the best! Very knowledgable on all things moisture and mold. As a Realtor, being able to have him provide my clients peace of mind is more valuable to me than you could ever imagine. Will definitely be using again! read more

I am a property manager, and one of my properties had a problem with mold. Geric came to the house on very short notice, and was able to help clear up the problem. Very professional, and a nice person. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help with mold. read more

We needed a mold inspection sooner rather than later, and I called another company who would not check the outside of our house, though that was where the suspected problem was. The second call I made was to Check For Mold, who was able to come out the next day, Geric was entirely friendly and nice, did a complete inspection of our outer walls, charged a very reasonable amount, and them sent us a report right away confirming that it was only water-stains and recommending exactly how to clean them. Nobody wants to have mold on or in their house, but I am happy to know that if we have any problems in future, we know exactly who to call! read more

Geric is wonderful to work with. He is responsive, knowledgeable and most importantly professional. He is patient, fair, and caring individual who went above and beyond his scope of responsibility to meet his customer's need. Nothing about his service is average, which is evident in the final product, a fast and well-informed report. read more

I was beside myself about an apparent (and worsening) mold issue at my rental home in La Crescenta. After consulting about 300 sites for info and hiring 2 other companies (at ~$550 each) to come and inspect my home, I happened upon Geric at "Check for Mold" (or Checkformold.com). INDEPENDENCE: The first thing I noticed about this company was that they are not testers-remediators. They are testers only. Thus, they do not have any conflicts-of-interest impacting their sampling and reporting. This was a very important credential to me and should be to everyone. IMPRESSIVE KNOWLEDGE, NO SALES PITCH- Geric was able to go toe to toe with me on my tough questions and sounded like he knew even more than this self-proclaimed "Mold Maven" did - especially about the building science aspect and proper mold sampling protocols. His pitch was like a non-pitch. He didn't try to sell me his services at all. He sounded like the lab partner I copied off of in high school, only cuter and more genial. SERVICE: Geric was very flexible in his scheduling, agreeing to come early on a Saturday morning (of a holiday weekend, no less) in spite of having multiple appointments that day. He arrived 5 minutes early and set right to work while asking me questions. Even though I was only purchasing samples, Geric gave me the time and attention that he would have devoted for a full-scale inspection with samples (I know, because I had already paid for 1 dud inspection and 1 "ok" one). Geric also listened to all my protracted theories about the mold source and cause, and he thoughtfully contemplated each of them. PRICING: After I mentioned that I would probably want to get about 10 samples at $75 each, (fyi: my other inspector, CSI Mold, was going to charge me $100+ per sample), Geric said that I would really only need 7 samples and proceeded to explain why. (talk about integrity; this guy talked me out of giving him an extra $225!). RESULTS: Geric then told me that he would have the results and report ready for me in 3 days. On the morning of the 3rd day, there it was-sitting in my email inbox: a bright and shiny report, replete with lab results from an accredited AIHA lab (that part was super important to me, as the results would have been dismissed by my landlord if they weren't from a legit lab). My first mold inspector didn't even bother to send me a report; the second one took well over a week-and that was without samples. The report was easy to understand and summarized the issue succinctly and clearly. I now knew the areas to focus on for remediation. Moreover, I knew the types of mold that I was facing down. OVERALL: Geric was superb. He outperformed both of my other "highly recommended" inspectors and charged far less. I could not be happier with this outcome. Thank you, Geric at "Check for Mold"! read more

Geric was incredibly helpful when we found mold in our home. He came out on a sunday within a few hours. He collected samples, took photos and had a professional report to us later that evening. He even called to review the lab results with us - which were right on time too! read more
