The "trained by" person doesn't have the years of experience to know what to look for and see what's there. I provided tons of info, there was evidence of moisture, had many health symptoms of mold and still he found nothing, it was all a-ok (???) Next testing, did not fall for the "trained by" listings and hired an owner that found it all, because he spotted the things that were there all along. It would have been nice to know then instead of waiting.... Plus there is no savings in hiring a "trained by" because the charges are the same. Could use that wasted cash for the present cleanup.

He was especially helpful regarding some issues with the exterior of the home which I had not noticed myself. Ultimately, primarily for reasons outside of the ones that came up in inspection, we decided not to buy the home, and True View was able to give us partial refunds for the radon and lead tests we ordered as we would not be needing them. We will definitely be contacting Bill again for the next home we need to inspect, and I'll go in with a better eye for some of the things to look out for during our search.

Charles has been phenomenal in helping us decide if a house we are considering buying is safe for our health issues (and, if not, what we can do to make it safe. the tests aren't all back yet!). Tho he had to travel quite a way, his inspection was meticulous and beyond thorough. He spent nearly 8 hours going into every nook and cranny. He knows where to look, how to ensure the home is safe including the furnace and HVAC system. He was also very careful with making sure we would not overspend on unnecessary tests which we appreciate (altho we went for some more expensive ones at the get go anyway). And then after that full day, he hustled to make fedex to ensure the tests would be evaluated in a safe and expeditious timeline and THEN dropped off the cultures to the lab in person. Further, bc of the purchase timeline, he rescheduled other clients to be able to assess our house so we could get all tests back within our inspection timeline. He is also very well versed on newer technologies and proper remediation techniques for air handling and venting systems. Highly, highly ,highly recommend!

Absolutely bizarre experience. I'm still a little dizzy and it's not even over. Why/how is it…read morethey're still in business? Flood damage in my NYC apt. Called RTK for asbestos/mold check. I was told $1500. The asbestos guy showed up and 30 mins later told me he'd finished and left. That's it - no card, no introduction, no discussion of the work, not even how are you? He just turned round and left. Since then I've heard absolutely NOTHING from RTK regarding asbestos risk. They simply won't talk to me about it. In fact they won't even bill me for it. (truly) A few days later a woman showed up to check for mold. She did her work and charged me $865 for it, on the spot, using a card reader - which is perfectly OK, of course, but is the exact opposite business practice from the asb guy. Obvious question - are they workers from different contractors with (totally) different practices and standards? Meaning their results will probably not be comparable or standardized and so pretty much meaningless. Couple of days later I called to get the reports and the closing invoice - figuring $635. I was told it would be $3,865 - that's $3,000 for a 30 minute asbestos check and $865 for mold and, so far, NO REPORTS. What are they doing? So I objected to the $3,865 charge and said the quote was $1,500 and I'd already paid them $865 so if they sent me the reports and an invoice for $635 I'd pay it and we could all move on. I've heard NOTHING from them so now my offer's withdrawn. I've made other arrangements and no longer need RTK's reports. I will get the $865 charge reversed (no reports delivered) when it appears on my statement. So RTK ends up with $0, a derogatory on their credit report and reviews like this. The whole process has been total insanity. I simply cannot fathom what they're doing at RTK. They don't even bother to bill you for it (appropriately so). (exit stage L shaking head)

TLDR: Disappointing Experience with RTK Environmental - Incomplete Mold Testing Led to Major…read moreConsequences After medical testing revealed my wife had dangerously high levels of mold in her system, we hired RTK Environmental with the expectation that they would help us identify the root cause in our home. I communicated clearly and repeatedly that this was a serious health issue, and that we wanted testing to be thorough and comprehensive. While our technician, John, was responsive and pleasant, the testing ultimately fell short in critical ways. RTK missed some of the most significant mold sources in our home--specifically in the basement and garage, which later proved to be major contamination zones. Their clearance testing gave our home a "green light," and we were told it was safe for my wife to return. Unfortunately, she became ill again almost immediately upon reentering the home. After speaking with RTK about this, the owner did come to our home. While more knowledgeable about mold illness, he did admit that they were not on the forefront of this. Even still, during his visit he found more sources of mold than the original tester had. We have now been displaced for five months, including three months post-remediation, during which we worked with another company that took a much more investigative approach. Their testing uncovered severe contamination, including dangerously high levels of Stachybotrys (black mold) and Chaetomium--toxins that were completely missed by RTK's original inspection and clearance process. In hindsight, RTK's attempt to save us a few hundred dollars by discouraging more extensive testing--and their lack of mold-specific expertise and thoroughness--has led to tens of thousands of dollars in additional expenses and months of lost time, stress, and health setbacks. I strongly urge anyone dealing with health-related mold concerns to seek out a company that specializes in source-level testing and takes environmental illness seriously. This experience has been both financially and emotionally devastating for our family.

What a pleasure it was to have Abe inspect the home we are interested in purchasing. He was on time, which is a HUGE plus these days, and provided a detailed inspection of the home. Abe is personable and easy to communicate with regarding any concerns we had. He also provided detail explanations throughout his inspection. In the end, we felt confident we had a successful inspection. Abe gave us some "goodie" bags to include candy, retractable tape measurer, sticky note pad, band aids and pen - what a nice touch!

Over the phone, he was able to answer all of my queries and gave me a quick run-down of all the different services they provide and an accurate quote for an inspection on the house. He was also able to answer all of my "what-if" questions and ease my nerves by giving me a step-by-step on what to expect. Although my window for inspection was only 7 days, he was also able to squeeze me in for an inspection and got me my report within 3 days! I'm super grateful for that. On the day of the inspection, Abe and Nick let me join in on the process and even encouraged me to take my own notes. Every step of the way was a learning process for me and I gained a ton of new knowledge on structural info, safety, energy saving tips and more on the house. Abe gave me a packet and some goodie bags. The retractable tape measure with sticky notes and pen is really cool. He also put in some candy if you're feeling peckish, some hand sanitizer, flashlight and bandaids--all super useful stuff. Folder includes info packets, and even a final walk through checklist. He'd really thought of everything. Overall, I highly recommend Abe. His inspection gave me valuable insight on the house, and most importantly I gained a peace of mind. It's definitely worth the price!
