We recently moved in to a new home and there is a really odd smell in one cabinet.
Could it be mold?
I called Moldex and at the appointment we ruled out mold due to the smell. I didn't purchase additional treatment but was advised of various cleaning methods.
Reliable, professional and helpful.

If you think you might have mold, don't waste your time with the other companies. Unlike the others,  Daryl actually takes the time to diagnose the problem scientifically (takes samples to a lab for testing) before he diagnoses the problem. Another company wanted to charge us over 3k to fog the house. It sounded fishy and so it was Daryl to the rescue. He also gives a lifetime guarantee on his work under the philosophy that if you treat mold properly, it won't come back. This guy is the real deal and we recommend without any hesitation whatsoever.

Daryl is exceptional. He removed/treated the mold in our sunken wet bar area as well as replaced/repaired the shelves/walls   He was professional, forthright and clearly talented. We appreciated that he does it all from remediation to final restoration. No need to get others involved. Daryl said up front he would complete the work in one week and in fact he did.  Thank you for the good quality work Daryl.

these guys helped us out today and didn't charge us. They were the first ones to inspect the home we were interested in and in return for them checking it out today they are just asking to be called in the future for any home inspections. They saved us from making a horrible purchase and we will definitely use them in the future and refer them to others.  it was really cool how they work with us and understood our situation.

LONG overdue review!
We bought a house back in December of 2019, which was vacant for about 2 years prior to us purchasing the home. After a few months, we noticed a bunch of little gnats/flies in the corner cabinet near the sink. I knew they were there because of moisture and there was a bit of a funky smell. We called Daryl and he came over to assess the situation. When it got into things, it was nasty... sludge under the corner cabinet. He took samples of the mold and sent them out to a lab. It was confirmed as mold and he provided us with a quote and solution to resolve the matter. Daryl was professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Some of the cabinets were needing to be replaced and Daryl researched to find the manufacturer. Since Covid had just entered the scene, he was not able to connect with the manufacturer. Instead, Daryl rebuilt the cabinets from scratch and did a great job. He also helped me with some other little cosmetic things in the kitchen, which he didn't have to do (he didn't even charge me for it). I would absolutely recommend Daryl, especially if you have or think you have mold. Don't mess with that stuff. Leave it to the pro's, and Daryl is a pro!

I had my bathroom renovated years ago and when they tiled my shower they used grout instead of caulk where the fiberglass shower pan meets the wall tile. Well, the grout has eroded over the years and I had started to notice water getting in there. I'm no mold expert, I'm no tile expert, so my mind is thinking water leaking behind the tile and under the shower pan is probably a hotbed for mold. Found Moldex on Yelp and saw the great reviews so I called. We scheduled a Saturday morning appointment which they usually don't do but because they're professionals they said they would. Morning came and he was on time and super professional, checked everything and asked me questions, after that he told me I had nothing to worry about and I can rest easy.

I would highly recommend them because they aren't out to just take money, they care about what they do and you know you're going to get professionals that do professional work.

We have used Darryl a few times at our house. Once when we were buying and we saw that the previous owners had a flood in the home, he came through and did a full home inspection and found a few areas that were not correctly replaced. His team did a fantastic job remediating the areas to where you would never know anything had ever happened. We've also had him out when we've had a few previous scares of mold. Each time Darryl is thorough, honest, professional and  goes above and beyond to walk us through everything he is seeing. To give an example, yesterday we had him come out and look at a small leak we found and he was honest in that we would be able to fix it ourselves and walked us through the steps we should take. Would highly recommend using this company!

Wow - I just had the oddest call with this business. I wanted to get a straight answer on pricing because I am concerned I am being exposed to mold in either my office or my home. Instead, the person I spoke to was completely arguing with everything I had to say and then told me I worked for a competitor and to never call them again.

I placed a call today in hopes of utilizing The Mold Experts services but unfortunately they do not travel here to Litchfield Park.  I do want to review them for their quality customer service.  I received a call back within an hour of my initial call and message.  After being informed they do not report to this side of town, the gentleman not only provided a referral to who could help me but offered his input on my job as well.  Would definitely recommend getting a quote from The Mold Experts.

Jeff came to my home to test for mold by taking air samples. A total of 6 including outside samples. $1800 dollars for the testing and lab result report. This is highway robbery.  

I will blame myself for being so desperate and stupid to have agreed to this but after the fact realized what an idiot I was and that I was surely taken advantage of. The guy is a fast talking used car kind of sales person.  And he will talk your ears off until you can no longer hear. And he claims he is a professor at GW, Ph.D., retired from HUD or whatever federal agency he said he worked for etc. Which are all fiction. He fabricates and really knows 0 about accurate mold testing, how to interpret results, the detrimental effects on people who are genetically susceptible to mold illness (about 25 percent of population),  and plays the role of mold expert.  

I just had my entire home inspected, inside and outside, humidity levels taken, dampness detection, 6 samples for mold testing, and written report of lab results- by a different company. For $299!!

I still can not believe I was that stupid to spend $1800 and that this guy the mold expert can take advantage of unknowing victims.

Wow. I bet this review will not be posted because Jeff writes the reviews and at the very least screens them and deletes the negatives.

We hired Moldex to help with mold in a guest bedroom caused by a roof leak, and we are so happy with the results! The owner does the work himself and he is a real expert when it comes to mold and construction work. He knew A LOT about mold and was able to answer all our questions. I was worried that the drywall and paint that was repaired would look different from the rest of the room but it is seamless, you can't even tell where the repair work was done. I thought the price was very fair, I had received quotes from 1 other company and Moldex was cheaper in price. Owner was friendly and very responsive with questions and concerns. We are very happy with the work, thank you Daryl!

Our faucet broke and got mold underneath our kitchen sink and dishwasher..  Daryl Did a great job!  was prompt, best quote (we tried 4 companies), looks better than even before the faucet damage.  Please note he is very busy-  so we had to wait about a week for him to be able to do the repairs (he did come day after we called for a quote and to take samples).  He tested air quality inside the house so we felt comforted knowing mold hadn't gotten into our air.  Will use him again (although fingers crossed we wont have another issue) and recommend.

Unfortunately for us, we have had mold twice since moving into our hone. Darryl was recommended to me by an old high school friend last year. When he came to do the work I was beyond impressed! After remediation the black mold he PERFECTLY fixed the drywall and texture. He took the paint to get matched and it was spot on. You would never know that area was not the original wall. This year we called him again after we found bugs in the bathroom. He swabbed in the walls and it came back with mold. Darn it! Just as expected his workmanship is phenomenal. He is brilliant when it comes to anything contractor related. I picked his brain about so many home projects and he was a wealth of knowledge. The drywall is all done now and just waiting on our new tub to be installed before the final air test. He was willing to pull out our old tub while the counters were out so we could update it. He is clean and tidy in everything he does. Don't hire other people who make you find your own drywall person afterwards and stop when they clean the mold. Darryl is the whole deal!

Had a recent plumbing leak.  After being told by another company they would have to cut open walls and do all sorts of reconstruction, I called Daryl for for a second opinion.

Daryl was very patient in understanding my situation, explaining what to look for, how to actively dry out the wet area, and prevent any potential mold issues.

Thank you Daryl!! I will refer you to my family & friends!!  It's great to have an honest expert who will give me peace of mind on what the best thing to do is.

We feel so fortunate to have found Daryl. I had been having health issues that were pretty debilitating for several months. After numerous Dr. visits couldn't determine the underlying cause we suspected something may be wrong with the house. We called Daryl and he was able to determine the issue and help with a successful remediation of the problem. On top of helping to make our house healthy again, he provided a ton of information to help ensure we are able to keep it that way. I can't recommend him more and we are so grateful to him for all of his help! If you suspect you may have mold (which isn't always apparent without proper testing) do yourself a favor and give him a call.

I recently used Daryl to test a home where mold was suspected that my client's were considering purchasing.  Daryl's quick turn-around time, independent lab results and
his knowledge of mold and it's remediation helped them make an informed decision.

We are so happy with our remediation. We suspected we had mold somewhere after some allergies in the house. Daryl came out the day after I called and did walk through and took 4 samples. He found mold is places we didn't suspect (kitchen and a guest bathroom) and suggested the air ducts be cleaned. His bid for the remediation was very reasonable (and lower than any other estimate we got (we checked just out of diligence)) and included the rebuild. He completed the project in 4 days. He has a guaranteed bid, so even though our issue was larger than he estimated, the cost remained the same, which was a relief to us. We would recommend him to anyone in need of a test or remediation--and if you are buying a home, we'd suggest him as part of the inspection!

Daryl was wonderful. i really had a nice experience. He tested for mold for a reasonable fee, sent it to the lab and i had an issue and then he resolved it. He's a detail oriented guy who will be concerned with doing a great job for you.  I have a lot of sensitivities to environmental issues and Daryl answered every question and worked with me. Now i have much cleaner air in the house. Wonderful experience.

I gave Daryl a call for some suspected mold in our new house and he was incredibly helpful. Some of the issues I brought up he was able to quickly give me simple solutions so I could take care of it on my own and he was quick to let me know what issues I should be concerned about. His rates were very reasonable too. My husband and I are going to wait to see if we're able to take care of it on our own or need reinforcements. If we do need assistance we'll definitely be calling Daryl back!

I called Daryl on a Saturday afternoon worried about potential mold in my home. He gave me a mountain of incredibly helpful advice and offered multiple home remedies for me to try before I had to spend any money for him to come out. I'm so grateful for the peace of mind and help he provided and if the issue does not resolve with the home remedies - he will be my first call.

Daryl inspected an unit for my client who was in escrow on a property. He saved her tons on time, money, and much more by informing her, based on his expertise, of pervasive mold throughout the home. He was professional, knowledgable, and I will definitely be recommending him to all my future clients.

Great experience! They helped me handle a mold issue caused by my HOA and were so knowledgeable that they actually helped me to get the HOA to pay for the fix much faster than I could have on my own. Availability was awesome, even weekends, and the remediation was flawless, even above and beyond. I'd absolutely recommend.

Don't waste your time calling this company.  The person who answered the phone (Darrel) was VERY rude!  He asked if I was a telemarketer!!  As a customer service suggestion Darrel- answer the phone by saying, Moldex The Mold Experts this is Darrel how may I help you?  Then the customer would know who they were calling and not have to ask you your name!  Ultimately I hung up the phone and will call another water restoration/ mold expert company - who I AM SURE will value my business.

Daryl was very professional.  He was great to work with.  He did an amazing job.  The exterior of the cabinets are so nice, we cannot tell anything was ever done.  The interior now looks like new.  He arrived and completed the work on time.  Daryl was very pleasant to work with.  If I ever encounter mold again, Daryl will be my first call.

I have not had services yet but based on how much time was spent on the phone with me, this will definitely be who I go through. I called to get information and I was given so much information even telling me if I'm getting other quotes, what I should be asking for. Daryl even told me if I wanted to save some money, maybe I could get away from the house for a little to see if my husbands symptoms improve before spending the money on mold testing.

Daryl with Moldex just completed a mold remediation in our master closet. I am so happy that we contacted him for our mold issue. He arrived on time, often early, every time he was scheduled to come out. He was professional yet personable. He is an expert but he explained everything so we understood. Also, he is amazing at repairing drywall. No one wants to deal with mold but if you think you might have it, call Moldex.

I highly recommend Daryl/Moldex!  We had a suspected mold issue in a condo we were trying to sell.  Daryl was on it quickly and efficiently and explained to us what was going on with the wall and why.  He fixed the problem so well we couldn't even tell the drywall had been removed and replaced.  Then he went well above and beyond by explaining to the landscapers what needed to be done to keep the water away from the building in the future.  Thanks Daryl!

Very professional, transparent with zero confusion and will go above and beyond to make sure your home is restored better than its original condition before you had mold. There was water damage from a sewer line in my home and unfortunately it damaged the drywall behind cabinets in the kitchen. In less than a week Darryl was able to replace drywall, ensure water damage would not return, and reinstall brand new cabinets. He also went above and beyond to make sure the stove was leveled which had nothing to do with the project! I highly recommend his services and company. Mold is no joke to mess around with and the process was seamless from start to finish.

Moldex is highly recommended for any mold remediation/restoration.  Immediate response to our inquiry online yielded a same-day visit from Daryl, who thoroughly explained their process and procedures, along with initial costs.   From there, we had an air quality sample done and our lab work came back quickly on the mold sample.  We used their services to clean and repair the affected area, and it actually came in under the projected cost, not to mention looking fantastic!  Definitely a fan and while I hope we'll never need Daryl's services again, I'll enthusiastically recommend him to anyone.

We contacted Daryl initially to help us identify/address a source of a moldy smell in our home.  He had extraordinary reviews, so we provide this one just to present our different experience.

He was immediately reachable, very prompt with arranging a home visit, and always very confident in his assertions.  While his speed in identifying our problem and readiness to discuss his (possibly excellent) credentials repeatedly would be a positive to many, we felt that he reached his conclusions a bit TOO quickly and mentioned his background and all his competitors' inadequacies TOO frequently.  Possibly just a clash of personalities, but...

We weren't feeling confident in the diagnosis and remediation he proposed and looked for another opinion just to do our due diligence (but we are certainly NOT experts).  We subsequently learned of a few red flags:  
(1)  MoldEx does their own specimen collection (not the actual testing, though) which other contractors believe is a conflict of interest (i.e., there's an incentive to find a problem and to prove that the work has resolved it).
(2)  A more thorough inspection revealed an entirely different source for our moldy smell which would NOT have been addressed had we gone with the MoldEx remediation plan.

During this process (before we found what is likely the right source), we contacted Daryl to ask a few follow-up questions, planning to hire him.  I must have given him the (totally incorrect) impression that other contractors were standing by to do the work for us, because his brief response was that he was busy and must pass on our job.  I'm sure the people providing you with this information will be more than happy to take care of you, he replied.  We took this to mean that he was offended by our potentially getting other opinions.  We felt rather put off and left a fairly scathing review.  Next day he called to inquire about it (I appreciated that).  I explained what our concerns were and that we did not, in fact, have any other options available to us.  I revisited my questions with him; he told me he'd talk if I took down the review (I was unimpressed with that).  He called the next day when I hadn't, then tracked down my spouse's work number and left a message there.  We were left with a fairly sour taste.

My wife and I have trusted Moldex (Daryl) on successfully remediating our last home of mold, as well as reliably testing our recent rental house's HVAC system as well. Moldex does not take advantage of its customers, and they will give you honest and unbiased feedback on what they see, without a scare tactic. It's important to work with people you trust. We highly recommend Moldex for the greater Scottsdale Phoenix area.

My husband and I used Daryl/Moldex for our mold remediation and couldn't be happier that we did. Not only was he very fair with the pricing, but he was a wealth of knowledge on the subject of mold and best ways to remediate it. The testing offered by Moldex is less expensive than many of the other companies and all around he is great to work with. I highly recommend using them if mold is a concern at all, even if you just want your home tested for it.

Daryl is the real deal.  He is very knowledgeable and came out yesterday to take samples and start the assessment process.  I am very inexperienced in this area but he fast-tracked me on what I needed to know as a landlord. I already referred him to someone in my neighborhood.

We noticed mold in our garage. Called Darryl, who was prompt at responding by phone or text. He explained that the mold was because our roof was leaking, which further inspection from a roofing company proved him correct. He also explained that our house was custom made and required special materials. We got the lab results and an estimate in a timely manner. Unfortunately, when we contacted the insurance company, they sent out a different mold company for the repairs, so this comment is not evaluating his repair work. However, the company we got from the insurance has proven to be very lacking in communication from the start and borderline incompetent, not even realizing the special circumstances around our custom made house until they started tearing things apart, even though Darryl noticed within ten minutes of getting here. So comparing two mold companies back to back, I can say Moldex is way superior, and wish the insurance company had chosen him.

Daryl with Moldex did a fantastic job.  Our under-sink R/O system leaked for quite some time without us noticing.  By the time we did, water had damaged all the cabinets under the sink and nearby, and mold had started to grow behind our dishwasher.  Daryl was able to save much of the structure other contractors wanted to tear out.  He remediated the mold, saved the cabinet faces, and rebuilt the cabinets better than new.  Daryl is super friendly and trustworthy.

I called Moldex to inquire about an estimate to check our attic. Great customer service! They explained to me my situation and told me I have nothing to worry about. Its refreshing to have a company be so honest saving me time and worry :) I will definitely call them back if I need mold experts in the future.

Daryl visited a house I rent out where a termite contractor suspected a mold problem. He was able to make an initial visit almost immediately. He determined the issue had nothing to do with mold and was able to explain what was going on. He didn't charge me anything for the visit since it was on his way to another call anyway. Rather than take advantage of the situation he was completely straight with me. On top of it, no bill was above and beyond the call of duty. I have no doubt he treats all his customers fairly and wouldn't hesitate to call him in the future.

We just moved into an older home that had some pretty extensive mold damage. We called Moldex to come out and remove the mold and repair damage.  They did an amazing job. They were completely professional and their drywall work was perfect. I can't even tell that there was ever a problem. Great Job!
