Bill Chafee from OneCall2 is a trustworthy and proficient mold inspector and remover. There are several reasons why I can vouch for his expertise. During the three appointments I had with him, he was always punctual and greeted me with a smile. He was attentive and articulate in answering all of my questions.
In contrast, another mold inspector with whom I had worked, Shegun from Pure-r Space, had determined that there was wet mold under my hall bath. However, his report and photographs were missing, which raised my suspicions. I approached Bill Chafee, who conducted his own inspection using thermal imaging and visual examination. His report revealed that there was no mold in the area, contradicting Shegun's claims. Bill Chafee even allowed me to view the area for myself and provided me with professional photographs of his findings.
Furthermore, Bill Chafee discovered that the mold removal process conducted by Pure-r Space in my kitchen violated IICRC S500 Guidelines. He pointed out that a proper mold remediation procedure would have included a contained area with a clean zone, the use of HEPA filtration, aspiration of contaminated walls and fogging with an anti-microbial solution, and proper disposal of hazardous waste. The improper treatment of mold in my kitchen by Pure-r Space may have worsened my breathing problems.
I regret not hiring OneCall2 for mold removal instead of Pure-r Space. I am grateful to Bill Chafee for inspecting my home and finding that the hall bath did not require treatment. I now realize the significance of hiring licensed, certified, and insured contractors. Bill Chafee's current qualifications are California Gen B 987118, IICRC 150594, and certifications in water, odor, and microbial remediation, lead (state), and Masters Goldmorr remedial products. I highly recommend Bill Chafee of OneCall2 for all your mold inspection and removal needs.
