They've gone above and beyond. If you're stuck, dealing with a mold issue, these guys are your best bet. read more

Reasons I called Fun Guy Inspections: It's in the name! Because Mold Inspection and Consulting is way too boring. Reasons I chose to use Fun Guy: Besides # of stars and reviews, I enjoyed the thorough conversation on the phone with Robert. I gave him the issue, he laid it out with a, b, c, was knowledgeable and honest about the possibilities, and despite him not having gone yet, he made me feel secure and at ease with the process and outcome. One of our clients needed closet checked for mold. Despite our best efforts, we wanted to put her at ease and have a professional come out to test. Robert was able to schedule in a timely manner, showed up at the time he advised, was able to take samples to test, and was able to provide results/report to give to our client. He is a one man show on the scene, so it's great he has an answering team to back him up as when I had questions, the staff was great in paging him and I was able to get a call back in a timely manner. Thank you again for coming out! Would def recommend. read more

All I can say is Wow! Robert is amazing. We live in the Eaton canyon area and were concerned about toxic substances in light of the recent fire. Robert provided a valued educated opinion on our approach and next steps. Robert did not push any sale and came from a position of education and rationality (every other company was trying to sell me something or push me to go through insurance so they could overcharge). Robert is a stand up guy; give him a call and you won't be disappointed! I even offered to pay for his advice and he refused, telling me "he was just in this to help people." Thank you Robert! You will be our go to for any future needs! read more

I would not recommend this company. First off, they overcharge and are much higher than the going cost. It took less than 20 minutes to obtain a sample from an unfurnished 697 sq ft condo. The sample was from the attic, which had a large door to access, and was wide open. The sample area was directly above the attic door. The charge for this 20 minutes, $550. Then there was an additional lab fee of $85. When I complained about the price, in all fairness, they did discount the bill $50. I told them we had a 2 1/2 hr home inspection that was only $450. I will also say the report (from the lab) was very thorough. Secondly, we were told we would get the report in 2 days. Well 2 days was really 7 days. I called and spoke to Carly on the second day and was told the specimen was at the lab and I could expect a report the following day. That did not happen. In the meantime our home closed escrow w/o the report read more

I was referred to Fun Guy by my contractor. Had a roof leak, followed by a little bit of mold in the ceililng. Was so glad when Robert said it was only a little bit. But anyway, have to have it remediated. He referred me to a remediation guy who also sounds great. I Like this company. Robert was SO detailed and gave me all the information I could possibly want, showed me what he found with his camera, carefully explained the next steps. So far so good. read more

The five star rating is well earned. I was buying a new home that was 70+ years old and, with young kids, I was extremely nervous about environmental issues like mold, lead-based-paint, and asbestos. Robert and Carly were quick to respond over Yelp and Robert actually jumped on the phone with me for about 10 minutes walking through things I should be concerned about in this situation and the things I should actually test for. All this before we even officially hired him! The day of the inspection, he was on time, super thorough, and took the time to educate me about what he was looking for, potential risks, and remediation opportunities. I'm extremely happy with his work and will bring him out to do add'l tests once we start a remodel. read more

Last month, I had a really stressful situation and spoke to Robert I think... he was very educated about mold, and took his time calming me down and walking me through the next steps. I would definitely call him again for future testing needs! read more

I recently found some old mastic under carpet that I had pulled up. I called Chris out to come give his assessment. From the beginning he was forthright, explained everything he was doing and told us what to expect with a remediation process if it came to that. A few days later, he confirmed the mastic contained asbestos and provided the names of several remediation companies we could reach out to. He provided the full report and offered any further help with our process. Chris was very helpful, put us at ease and walked us through the process that can be a little scary. Thank you!! read more

They did a thorough and fantastic job on a report I requested on a roof issue I had. I needed to confirm if I had mold or any issues I needed to resolve with my roof that leaked after a bad storm. They were responsive and thorough and really enjoyed dealing with them. Especially in a stressful situations. read more

I called Robert to get an idea of the asbestos testing I might need in my home and an estimate and he was so thoughtful and reassuring, talking me through my specific situation. He was generous with his time and expertise in the initial phone consultation and essentially talked himself out of a job! Definitely going to look up this company if I need any kind of environmental testing in the future. Thank you, Robert--I appreciate it. read more

Great service, great communication! They did their inspection promptly, skillfully, and got the report back in a good amount of time.

Updating my review as days later I got a call from this Co. more later. He seemed energetic and came across Called to get an estimate & 2ND opinion. When they did answer their phone & I explained the situation they insisted to know name of first CO hired? I told them yet why should that matter? I was then informed that HE would HAVE to see the other CO's results first. WHAT? No, I wanted a 2nd test done b4 the other person in the home got their results back. IF LEGIT WHY would one CO care or even want to know what another CO's results were? None of these CO' have a state license nor are they regulated or monitored. Mold inspection seems one Shady business. The fun guy was shady with me and he never did call back. Do mold inspection company's have each other's backs vs operating with integrity for the customer? Seems Fun guy does. read more

He was amazing and came next am providing me 3 days later with a thorough report and following up. By far the most thoughtful and kind people who deal with matters that are mot always easy for the person who is living with mold and has a slum lord who will not abate!! Thanks guys for all your help! read more

I contacted Robert regarding a time-sensitive mold issue. There were many expensive decisions that needed to be made, depending on the extent of the mold damage. Robert was extremely prompt and accommodating with my issue. His inspection of the mold issue was very thorough and he did a wonderful job of explaining the details around the rationale pertaining to his findings. In addition, I was even more impressed when he did not attempt to upsell me on additional tests he did not feel were absolutely necessary. I very much appreciate Robert's attention to his customers, detailed work and integrity. If you have a serious concern about a mold issue, no question Robert is the best choice! read more

Reliable, knowledgeable and honest - I can't believe how rare these qualities are these days. I will absolutely 100% use them again if needed! read more

Buying a new home is fraught with uncertainties and unknowns like possible asbestos and mold lurking behind the drywall. Robert was recommended by our realtor and I can see why. He was able to come out quickly to take samples for asbestos, get them to the lab and the results back fast. He's very knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions and his prices are excellent. Highly recommended! read more

This company is great we have used them twice once for a mold inspection plus air samples and once for Aspestos. They are professional Curtis and very knowledgeable . The reports they write are detailed . I recommend them. read more

Thank you Robert for your help handle everything from the beginning until the end. Thank you for your professional and thoughtfulness. You are the Best! If anyone need LEAD and Mold inspection and was not sure who you can trust. I recommend Fun Guy inspection & Consulting. read more

Robert was referred to us by our realtor because we were concerned there might be asbestos in the house we were purchasing in Santa Monica. He was prompt, smart, honest, and charged a totally fair and reasonable rate. And yay, no asbestos! Thank you, Robert! read more

Robert, THE FUN GUY, was referred to me by my general contractor. He was more than I expected a "Mold Inspector" to be. Very professional, courteous and friendly. He explained the process thoroughly, did his work and gave me the final report in a timely manner. He was GREAT! read more

I've never had to deal with mold, and when my house had water damage and possible mold, Robert was my hero. I called a bunch of companies and his prices beat the competition, and he sounded like someone that wasn't going to try and force me to pay for samples or tests that I won't need. I appreciated his honesty. He provided the report in a timely fashion, and helped determine what areas of my house had mold. I hope to never have a mold issue again, but if I do, I'd use Robert in a heartbeat. read more

We have a very tight schedule to get the air testing done. Dave, a great mold guy who is out of town, recommended Robert when we were desperate. Robert came early in the morning to get all the test carefully done in an hour and sent to the lab right after. Though we paid for an one day result and expecting to get it by 5:00pm, Robert was able to get back before 2:00pm!!! These three hours are really matters for the people like us who have very tight time schedule!!! Robert is through, patient and efficient, I highly recommend him. read more

I recently contracted Robert for mold inspection services at my parents home and couldn't be happier with the experience. Not only was Robert knowledgeable, timely, friendly, and genuine, but he never once tried to up-sell me with additional tests. Robert receives my highest recommendation. read more

GOT Mold?... simple answer ... Call ROBERT. Robert takes the ick factor out of the mold process with simple breakdown of facts, how its happening, where its happening and how you can make it go AWAY. Robert is a class act, and SMART as it gets. Thanks Fun.GUY read more

My wife and I moved into our new home when we found that we had baseboards that were very soft to the touch and bathroom doorframes with swollen bases. We started to get paranoid thinking that these are signs of undisclosed water damage. We started investigating further then hings got real when my wife found a black sport behind the master bath toilet. Is this mold in our new home? How large is this problem? The soft baseboard were in all different parts of our home so we thought this could be a HUGE problem... we needed professional advice. After contacting various flood and mold remediation companies, CBC restoration, suggested I get in touch with Robert at FunGuy to perform an inspection to learn what we're really dealing with. I made an appointment with Robert to come the next day for inspection and air quality test. He arrived on time, I restated our concerns and led him to show him the problem areas. When we got to the swollen doorframe base he asked if the previous owner had a small dog. They had three... This is where he stated that the damage is due to the dogs repeatedly relieving themselves in their favorite doorframe or baseboard. He also looked at the black spot and checked the moisture level in the drywalls under the baseboard and concluded it is very minor. He continued with thorough inspection of the home and concluded the house did not experience any major water damage. What a relief! Very gross about the dogs but what a relief! ... and yes we are getting new floors and trim! Moreover, Robert suggested we didn't need an air quality test saving us money. He called a week after the inspection making sure we are doing well and didnt have any questions which was very nice. His experience and expertise is evident. Great service, clear communication, honest and friendly. Highly recommended. Thanks FunGuy. read more

I had some water damage in my ground floor condo from a broken pipe on the 3rd floor in a common wall- and an HOA that was dragging their feet and denying responsibility - I knew I had mold growing - I could smell that musty smell. I called Robert after reading the reviews here- I figured I'll just get someone out here ASAP and deal with the HOA later. I was so impressed with Roberts knowledge- his professionalism and how quickly he got out to my place- I left a message Sunday night and he was here early Monday afternoon. If you are unfortunate enough to need a mold inspector - Robert at Fun Guy is the way to go! Thank you Robert! read more

I would definitely recommend Fun Guy Inspection to anyone needing asbestos inspection. Robert came out as scheduled and was very thorough and explained the whole process. He even gave me some pointers about a water stain on my ceiling from a prior roof leak. I had some follow up questions and Chris at the office was super helpful. Got my report and now I can move forward with the not so fun process of abatement. Great company and will use again if the need arises! Thank you Fun Guy! read more

I used Fun Guy Inspection for a house mold assessment and he was great! Super professional and nice and did everything he could to help you on service and cost. Knew his stuff cold! I highly recommend!!!!! read more

Simply put, Robert and Fun Guy are the best. Not just as an inspection company, but as a customer service and scientific consulting company that have the best customer service, bar none. I'm a mechanical engineer and my wife is a research molecular biologist, so we'd typically be pretty informed customers in this segment. We asked tons of questions and Robert had straight-up, plain english answers that showed that he knew what he was talking about. We were considering a possibly dodgy former toxic mold house, and Robert spent the time required to give phone consultations and review sellers mold testing reports so that we felt comfortable with what he was telling us. In the end, we ended escrow and walked away after the seller/seller's realtor cancelled a mold inspection with 35 minutes notice (yes, you read correctly - 35 minutes). Robert was kind enough to cancel our appointment and not charge a cancellation fee. Without hesitation, I would recommend Robert and Fun Guy (love the name) for any mold question. read more

Simply put, AMAZING! Excellent customer service, professionalism and knowledge. This is actually the 2nd time we have had Robert to our house, we were so impressed with him the first time we called him back again, and we were not disappointed. First off, he was able to rush and fit us in his busy schedule, on a Saturday nonetheless. A true work and business professional. Robert was able to quickly and accurately assess and document the damage, the entire time explaining every step of the process on what he was doing, why he was doing it, what he saw, and what the corrective course of action was. He answered every question throughly and thoughtfully, and really cares and listens to what you're saying. In spite of the situation, I'm not sure you could ask for a visit like this to go any better. Although we only call Robert if we have a problem, yet it's always a pleasurable visit. read more

Loved Robert's attention to the little details, like minor baseboard damage on a few corners in a house (apparently the previous owner had a small dog with territory issues), and the specific kind of damage to the underside of a sink overhang (looked more like soap than water damage). Plus, who doesn't love a good, pun-based business name? read more

Robert is incredibly professional and responsive! He was able to work quickly and get me my test results on a great turn around! Explained everything very well and made me feel super comfortable about the whole mold testing and remediation process. He also recommended a mold remediation company for me to work with and they get 5 stars as well! Floodcide Restoration! I highly recommend Robert and would happily do business with him again in the future read more

Great company! Robert with Fun Guy was very thorough and was able to find mold in our new home. I would definitely recommend them!!!

Fun Guy completed an asbestos & mold inspection for me this morning in the West Hills area. They arrived early and were kind, informed and willing to maximize my clients budget. After the inspection was complete, Robert noticed a sprinkler leak and helped turn off the water valve. (Obviously not his job!) Very impressed. read more

I have worked with Robert and his team for many years. He is as honest as they come and always puts the client first. At my previous company we used him for not only mold but lead and asbestos testing as well. I just wish all my vendors were as reliable as Fun Guy! read more

We have some mold in our house. We honestly thought it was gonna be a huge deal. Robert came and went through the house and methodically took an approach that was the most cost effective yet thorough for us. Robert was very familiar with the different types of mold and only advised testing on ones we needed to be certain of, due to the high cost of testing. This is not to say that he took any shortcuts. That is exactly how an honorable company should be run. I highly recommend this company. read more

Ive been using Fun Guy inspections for about 5 years. Robert is always professional, mindful about what he says around the tenants, on time, does a thorough job every time. read more

Fabulous service. Very thorough and professional inspection. We have used Fun Guy Inspection and Consulting for several properties, both local, and at a mountain cabin.

Suggests further inspection method to rule out mold. We strongly recommend Robert. JRM and MRM read more
