We were about to finish our basement and wanted it checked first given the age of the house. The inspection found a small moisture issue near the foundation we wouldn't have noticed, and we got it handled before it became a bigger problem.

Rated 5 by La Quinta-area neighbors
Great communication from the first call. They tested the air, handled the removal, and rechecked the space before signing off.
The mold cleanup itself was great. The only hiccup was a reschedule due to weather.
