    I was referred to VM3 from two of my coworkers who had worked with Andy Konopacki and said he was the best.

    I have a long history with this company, and I feel I can rely on them for thorough and honest…read moretesting and reporting. As far back as 1995, we hired former owner and founder Peter Sierck to do a thorough assessment of our home in West Torrace. We had large patches of black mold in closets, behind furniture, condensation on the inside of windows into the late afternoon and damp carpets. Our home was built on a slab and when El Nino 94-95 slammed us with water. We had standing water wicking into the wall cavities, ET&T helped us find out. They drilled a hole in the slab to see if there was water pressure, took air samples and mold cultures from all affected areas, and provided detailed reports and candid advice. One thing I really like about this company is they do not do any remediation. That allows them to deliver an honest report whether test results are good, bad or indifferent. In 2022, I was smelling some strange odors in my current house and called ET&T to to a thorough test. Even though I now live in Menifee, over an hour from Encinitas where ET&T is based, they were able to serve my needs. This time around, Andrew, the current owner who was trained by Peter, and hs associate Brad came out to do the inspection. The test was free of any mold issues, thankfully. Once again, they were very thorough and provided detailed reports. Last update, I noticed last week (March 2023) that my engineered hardwood floors were black and starting to warp in a small area in one of the bedrooms. Even though I didn't have a current job with them, Andrew took my call late on a Friday afternnon, and made time to look at the photos I shared, and also donated his time to recommend what I needed to do, and didn't ask for a fee. If you have any mold you want tested, these guys are the best. Don't put your health at risk with an untrained plumber or worse yet, handyman, both of whom will have a vested interest in signing you up for remediation when there might not be a need.

    If you need mold testing in San Diego I highly recommend this company. They are mold experts and…read morehandle everything in a very professional manner. My husband and I recently found what we thought would be our dream home. We were about to finalize the sale until the inspector found some strange looking growth in the crawl space above the garage. He wasn't a mold expert but he said he was 90% sure it was mold. We spoke with the owner of the home and they were willing to pay for the mold testing if we were able to find a good company. I asked around and a few people recommended ET&T. I gave them a call and explained our situation. They reassured me that they would definitely be able to determine if it was mold growing and also told us that they knew a few reputable mold removal companies who could take care of fixing the mold damage if the tests came back positive. We were in a rush so they were able to send a testing specialist out that same day. 48 hours later the test results came back, positive. They gave us the number of a mold remediation company who was able to get rid of all the mold so that we could proceed with the home purchase. We just moved into the home and I feel so much better knowing that our dream home is mold free!

    The owner, Evan was so nice and immediately said that I needed a bigger company to help me out and…read moresaid he would share with me multiple referrals and people that he really thought could help me and do a better job. I really appreciate the honesty and I think that says a lot about him and his company and I highly recommend him as I think anyone who turns business away and sends it to someone else is someone you can likely trust. Thank you, Evan

    Hamilton testing helped me with my home inspection. I was contacted by Evan who helped me get set…read moreup and was very clear to me on their services and prices. Since Evan went on vacation I was connected with Zach. Zach was super awesome and thorough, he got in contact with me and gave me the details about the inspection and helped coordinate with both agents on timing. I really appreciated Zach going above and beyond by coordinating off business hours and keeping me in the loop. For the inspection, Zach was very clear on his communication on arrival time and also confirmed with me the test samples he would be collecting on site. He explained to me details about asbestos and enhanced my knowledge. He also gave me a run down of the turnaround time for the report on test sample results. When I got the report, Zach was able to clearly walk me thru the results and offered me additional resources to reference. Thank you Zach and the Hamilton testing team! You guys are rockstars and provided me with excellent service! Highly recommend them as they are professionals who bring lots of value by giving you a peace of mind from their expertise.

    Let me start this review by saying you really don't want to ever have to call these guys. That…read moresaid, accidents happen, like maybe you're fooling around near the side of your house and you gently tap the "inspector's test valve" for your sprinkler system. Suddenly all heck breaks loose and you've now got several walls full of water. After realizing exactly what I had done (the fire alarm helped me understand), I called around all the big name companies that do this sort of water damage repair. The quotes I got were ridiculously HIGH. I decided to go local and gave Moe and his team (read: family) a call. Not only could they fit me into their schedule quickly, but they are also a one stop shop, meaning, when they leave your house, it looks just like it did before you broke your sprinkler pipe. Most of those big name companies require you to get someone else to do the drywall/painting part. All the Mold Safe guys that worked on the job were not only related to each other, they were also great workers and great people. They kept everything clean and showed up when they said they would. They kept me in the loop as to what was being done and explained anything I asked questions about. They dried the walls, cut out and replaced the wet drywall and added the matching orange peel texture when they did the final painting. Color matched, perfect finish. And when Ted was finished fixing the hole in the stucco left by the sprinkler system guy (yeah, it has to be a certified professional who fixes anything to do with your sprinkler system, not just any plumber), he went around my house with the left over spackle and fixed several other stucco dings in my house. Above and beyond. Like I said at the beginning, you really don't want to ever have to call these guys, but if you do find yourself in this sort of a situation, don't risk the mold, just call Moe. There's a reason they have dozens and dozens of 5 star reviews here. Highly recommended.

Chase came by the same day to assess the damage and had an estimate ready the very next day. I found the estimate and statement of work to be very professional and reasonable, and accepted it right away. Ted came and performed the work in multiple stages within the same week - demolition and clean-out, drywall replacement, and painting. He was thorough and searched for and treated mold in the carpet, along the walls, and even in the ceiling. Ted was very respectful to us and responsible, and was very knowledgeable. I felt peace of mind that our home would be in good shape thanks to Ted's quality of work. Micah also came with Ted one of the days and was also respectful, skillful and efficient. Gianna from the office was also very responsive and helpful. My wife told me she was impressed with how thorough Ted was. For example, he created a plastic wall to seal off the work area and prevented the rest of the bedroom from getting contaminated and dirty. We will definitely use Mold Safe Solutions for any future incidents that may come up and recommend them highly.
