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.

"Multiple Layers" of Deception and Unprofessionalism…read more.. In my correspondence with Gene K., a representative of Scope Environmental (cut and pasted from Yelp chat room) mentions "We can definitely help. Our asbestos inspection, survey, and lab results pricing is very competitive. It's $625 for the inspection and report. Each sample is $35. No other fees. Generally, results and reports will be available within 24-48 hours". Gene K. also mentioned the following "Some samples have multiple layers, and that can not be determined prior to taking the physical sample. You are welcome to call in so that you can properly comprehend the procedures". However, UNDISCLOSED FEES can creep into the price charged to the customer, e.g. such as the need to test "multiple layers" of one material; so, "No other fees" is (deliberately) misleading and therefore, deceptive. A field inspector (Daisy Flamenco) of Scope Environmental, arrived at the project site and upon seeing the area that needed sampling, asked the homeowner for a ladder to get her modest stature to the sampling material areas. When sampling the ceiling, Ms. Flamenco was barely able to reach the sampling surface (needed to be on her tippy toes), even with a step ladder (provided by the homeowner). ALL sample takers must come fully prepared for all conditions at the work site and not rely on the homeowner to provide tools, equipment or assistance of any kind to do THEIR job! Ms. Flamenco was dressed casually, no respirator or other appropriate protective equipment or gear, which is not only hazardous to herself, but sends the message to the homeowner (overseeing the work), that asbestos is really not that harmful. Even two and a half years following the end of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is appropriate if all workers who enter a home, to wear a mask or at least offer to wear one, but Ms. Flamenco failed to show the occupants of the residence, such consideration. Most (professional) people return to bad pre-pandemic habits, even if to protect the home's occupants from the common cold. What is really inconsiderate and unprofessional, is that Ms. Flamenco had disturbed suspected asbestos containing materials by scraping and cutting away material from parts of a furnace and its ducts, leaving the furnace and ducts out-of-order, i.e. if no asbestos or other harmful materials were found, the furnace and ducts could not be safely and effectively used without first repairing them. Leaving carcinogenic materials exposed (cutting, scraping or otherwise removing and exposing asbestos) to those who live at the work site, is hazardous and unprofessional and should never be done this way. Exposing harmful materials puts people and animals at risk of exposure to carcinogens and asbestosis causing particles! Asbestos sample takers should take measures to seal or otherwise cover, exposed asbestos containing materials (when they are through sampling them), to protect home occupants. This experience was a wake-up call to how incompetent workers can make a bad situation, worse!

I have met numerous industrial hygienists on sewage, pollutant, trauma/bodily fluid, smoke and fire damage claims. Too many hygienists talk a good game but fail to deliver when it counts. Sol Environmental is better. Sol was recommended to me by a senior entertainment attorney overseeing a large legal team, and that endorsement proved accurate. When I first met with Raul and Nick at Sol Environmental, I immediately recognized their technical depth and concern for the clients. They discussed testing protocols for contaminants that most hygienists overlook or simply don't understand--particularly the volatile organic compounds and particulate matter that pose serious health risks in post-fire environments. When other hygients test for lead and asbestos, Sol is testing for everything: mercuty, silica, arsenic, dioxins, cadmium, barium lithium, you name it in addition to the lead and asbestos. What sets Sol apart is their background as specialty remediation contractors. They don't just identify contamination--they understand the actual remediation process, which makes their protocols far more comprehensive and defensible than what I typically see from competitors. Their protocols meet the standard of care, which is rare in this field. Sometimes I just need good sampling and lab results. But if i need a defensible step by step protocol, Sol is great. More importantly, they're willing to stand their ground when insurance carriers bring in questionable experts pushing junk science to minimize scope and deny proper remediation. Sol backs up their findings with solid scientific evidence and proper testing methodology. In claims where bad faith is already an issue, having a hygienist who won't fold under pressure is invaluable. I've referred Sol Environmental to multiple clients, and they've consistently helped secure the proper remediation my clients deserve. They do difficult work in contentious situations, and they do it well. I recommend them without reservation. Leland Coontz, Public Adjuster license #2B53445 (714) 724 1767

We discovered a long-standing slow leak issue in our downstairs office caused by the previous…read moreowners of our house who contracted California Closets to install cabinetry. Unbeknownst to them, California Closets nailed a cabinet directly into an outflow pipe attached to the upstairs guest bathroom years prior to us moving in! None of our inspectors caught this issue before we moved in because that area didn't get a lot of use, so it was dry during inspections, and covered by other built-in cabinets (a hidden, nasty slow leak!). I was devastated to learn of this issue! We finally detected the issue when mold started appearing on the wall around the built-ins. You can imagine how stressed and shocked I was! So, I researched different companies and decided to try Mold Masters. I was able to schedule an inspection consultation quickly and easily. The cost of the inspection went toward the remediation expense. The inspector displayed the utmost professionalism, was super caring, answered all my questions, and really took the time to make sure that my home would receive impeccable respect. I had an instant feeling of trust that this was the company I wanted to go with. Once I scheduled the remediation, Mold Masters started almost immediately. They recognized my sense of urgency and accommodated my needs. The remediation team was amazing - super caring, careful, and respectful of noise and working hours. I was able to see progress and get updates real-time. They completed their work in under 6 days! They did an amazing job cleaning every last spot of mold. The structure of my home was intact, and I felt like the problem was solved! They did such a great job on the clean-up that I wanted them to do the rebuild too. This was another amazing experience with a wonderful contractor point of contact who made sure I got everything I needed fixed, down to the last tiny detail. They handled everything with the utmost care and respect. They were on time every day and respectful of the amount of noise. Additionally, this was not an easy job - they had to work around my water heater in a small corner... I was amazed at their artisanship, matching paint, flooring, etc. They completed the rebuild, paint, baseboards, trim and all in 6 days!! I am beyond pleased with Mold Masters' care and quality of work. I would highly recommend this company to anyone with a mold issue from start to finish!!
