Healthy Homes Make For Healthy Families

Let’s face it, we all want a healthy home and know that a healthy home environment makes for healthy families. There are so many issues in a home that have the potential to affect our health, we just can’t get all the information on our own. In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that a home’s Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) can be some of the most polluted air we breathe.

Building Biologists

The GreenWorks team is comprised of a broad array of environmental professionals experienced in a wide variety of environmental services. Our Building Biologists are uniquely qualified to assess and correct compromised environments. In fact, we live at the cutting edge of where the home environment collides with the natural environment

Frequently Asked Questions

Are There Any Special Considerations When Dealing with Mold in a Remodeled Homes?

Remodeled homes often wind up concealing a lot of the clues we look for when we assess for mold making the issues often difficult to find. Take for instance an older 1940's home recently renovated where the attic was converted to a master bedroom (now we can't see the underside of the roof) and the rear porch was enclosed (has an inaccessible crawl space and enclosed cathedral ceiling with failing ridge vent). More time and some invasive investigating / sampling is often necessary.

I’m Selling My House and the Buyer’s Test Came Back Positive. What Should I Do?

Who did the test? If one of those over the counter tests were used, they recommend that you need a mold professional to interpret the results. Any mold pro should be able to tell you about the molds detected and the water trigger, but you might need to do an additional control test to see if your molds are beyond Normal Fungal Ecology and pose a health risk.

Should I Have My Home Inspected for Mold Before I Put It up for Sale?

It’s always a good idea to be well informed going into your home’s sale. Having an inspection done yourself is a good way to pinpoint potential issues and be prepared for buyers concerns.

How Do I Get an Estimate for Mold Removal Services?

Just give us a call and we can help with the numbers. Of course, its best to have a formal mold assessment / inspection done first delineating mold impacts. But if it appears to be a small issue, we can usually figure it out pretty quickly. There's no fee to prepare a quote if you own your home. For Home Buyers, we have a small fee that we credit back when you engage us.

Should I Get a Mold Inspection When Buying a House?

Most deffinitely. But a basic mold inspection really isn't adequate. When you consider the house has been preped for sale with fresh paint, repairs and a top-to-bottom cleansing, you will need an expert who knows how to find "hidden molds" that often go undetected by basic mold inpsections.

What People Are Saying About Us

Sheryl Fallon

I contacted GreenWorks asking if they performed asbestos removal. My e-mail was responded to promptly letting me know that they do not perform that service, but also giving me the names and phone numbers of 3 local companies that do perform that service. If they respond so quickly to non-customers, I can only imagine how they treat their customers. Thanks Tracy B!

I can't recommend Greenworks enough! I'm in the process of selling my home, and the buyers had a mold inspection done that resulted in a remediation...

I have had the pleasure to work with Greenworks Environmental since 2022. The knowledgeable employees with Greenworks Environment helped me to get the answers that I desperately needed regarding my house and my health. For years, there was water and mold damage behind my walls that I was not aware of.

From the time we purchased the home, my family began to experience sicknesses that confused doctors. After years of searching for the right company to investigate my home, I finally found Greenworks! Greenworks Environmental completed a whole house assessment where we spent hours looking at every little detail of my home and identified the areas of concerns. Over time, with engaged collaboration and specific mold testing approaches, Greenworks identified several areas of remediation recommendations.

During the numerous remediation projects, Greenworks kept me informed, educated me and provided refences for resources for me to research to start to heal our health. They were diligent and incredibly professional and clean and provided exceptional documentation and photos needed for insurance and legal purposes.

I had talked with many companies before Greenworks, and many downplayed my concerns. If I have not found Greenworks, I would still be searching for answers. The entire project lasted about 2 years, and my family has finally started to feel better by addressing the health impacts of prolonged mold exposure. This process is overwhelming, scary, and expensive, but Greenworks was incredibly supportive and reassuring to me from start to finish!

The service and support that Greenworks Environment has saved and changed my life. I am beyond grateful for the expertise that Greenworks Environment embodies and I would highly recommend this company if you have any concerns with your home!

GreenWorks LLC is a company I highly recommend. Victor provided excellent service, answering all of my questions (and then some!) with great expertise. He is very understanding of how mold sickness affects both the person struggling with it and the effect it can have on family dynamics as a result. His availability and desire to spend the necessary time with us ensured a smooth and efficient experience. He identified details that others overlooked, demonstrating his keen attention to detail and comprehensive understanding of the relationship between indoor air quality and environmental conditions. I highly recommend Victor and the Greenworks, LLC team to anyone looking for reliable and knowledgeable professionals!

Greenworks put in our drainage system about 10 years ago so I called them because we were getting liquid into our basement. They quickly scheduled an appointment to investigate. Later on that evening a terrible odor started and I called our plumber who came and said it was the sewerage line coming into basement.

The next day I called Greenworks and they cancelled the investigation appointment and told me how to clean (disinfect/deodorize) the basement. Thank god for Greenworks and especially Tracy who I was dealing with on the phone.

I highly recommend Greenworksllc.

Greenworks offers professional service with open honest discussion. I’m waiting for the final report however I received a phone call with the initial results. Very customer friendly

Pasquale Storino

Victor and the team at GreenWorks are great. After having work done outside our home we were left with a strong chemical odor we were assured would go away after a few days. After a few days passed we were told it could be 3 weeks so I decided to contact GreenWorks to come investigate especially having a baby. We are still working through issues at home by GreenWorks could not have been more responsive and helpful.
