Spotless helped us resolve a sun room that has developed mold. Caleb was quick to come out for an inspection and estimate and the technician Sam was super helpful and thorough in both his work and answering our questions afterward.

I'm very displeased with the cleaning of the rugs. They do not look clean at all. The white rug looks like they didn't even tough it. The blue rug still has stains. $1200 for nothing. The couch cushions barely look touched as well. This is awful! I want my money back. Updated: Spoke to owner and she made it right! They came back with new chemicals and redid everything. She listened and understood my frustrations after sending her pictures. They were still not able to get everything out of the white rug but that was understandable since it was due to more wear and tear and they were not able to get all the stains out from the furniture, however it looks so much better than before and this service was what made me a spotless customer to begin with.

Owner's reply
Merna, thank you for giving us the opportunity to make this right. We sincerely apologize that the initial cleaning did not meet your expectations, but we’re glad you contacted us and shared pictures so we could understand your concerns and return to reclean everything. While some permanent wear and staining could not be completely removed, we’re happy the final results were significantly better and reminded you why you became a Spotless customer. We truly appreciate your patience, understanding, and updated review!

Fast response despite the aftermath of the 2026 june flash floods in Richmond, great service, friendly staff, quick and efficient. A large portion of the cost is equipment daily rates (air movers and dehumidifiers) these are important to drying out the basement but for those with a very robust dehumidifier that may be something to consider. A week after the equipment was pulled my dehumidifer is still slowly, slowly getting the humidity back in line, so the headstart their dehumidifers gave was a big help. The guys did a great job removing the damaged flooring, drywall, and carpet. They managed to help save our area rugs by expressing the water out of them, we were then able to get them to a cleaner who got them good as new. Invoice came in under the estimate as well, always good to see :) It would be nice if the guys were allowed to give a spitball estimate, they were a bit cagey about it until they had gathered all the photos/readings and sent it back to management for the estimate. That took what felt like a couple hours where I really had no idea how bad it was gonna hit the pocketbook. It also felt like it stopped the guy from being able to get started sooner then what might have been possible otherwise.

Owner's reply
Tom, thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review. We’re glad our team was able to respond quickly after the June 2026 flash floods in Richmond and help get your basement drying out as efficiently as possible. You’re absolutely right that professional drying equipment, including air movers and commercial dehumidifiers, makes up a large part of water mitigation costs. That equipment is critical to getting moisture under control properly, especially after a large flooding event. We’re glad it gave your home a strong head start and that your rugs were able to be saved and cleaned. We also appreciate your honest feedback about the estimate process. Our technicians are trained to gather photos, moisture readings, measurements, and documentation before pricing is finalized so we can provide the most accurate estimate possible instead of guessing on-site. That said, we understand how stressful it can be not knowing what the cost may look like right away, and we’ll use that feedback to keep improving our communication during emergency situations. Thank you again for trusting Spotless. We appreciate your business and are glad the final invoice came in under the estimate.

Spotless work, every time


Technology Spotlight: InstaScope™ instant air insights

One of the biggest frustrations with mold testing is the waiting, and the uncertainty while you wait. Traditional lab results can take days to return, and many homeowners are left thinking: What am I breathing right now? What does this mean for my home today?

That’s where InstaScope™ comes in.

InstaScope can evaluate airborne biology instantly and generate reports on-site, so you can review findings right away rather than waiting days for lab processing.

What InstaScope helps us do during a Lexington mold testing visit

Caleb, one of Spotless' team, using an Instascope mold testing and air sampling machine
  • See immediate air-quality patterns during the inspection (helpful when concerns are time-sensitive)
  • Compare areas of the home (e.g., basement vs. upstairs) to identify where the problem is most concentrated
  • Review results together on-site, so you’re not left interpreting a report alone
  • Generate documentation that can support next steps (especially useful for real estate situations)

“Instant” doesn’t mean “guesswork”

InstaScope is paired with a professional inspection and a common-sense testing plan. In some situations, we may still recommend lab analysis to answer more specific questions (like confirming certain details through a lab-processed sample).

The point is simple: you get answers sooner, and you’re included in the process so the results feel grounded instead of mysterious. It means you can ask us questions to help you interpret the data.

How mold testing works

We keep the process simple, because when you’re worried about your home, you don’t need extra complexity.

Timing depends on the method used.

With InstaScope, you can review key insights on-site during the appointment.

If lab processing is used, results often take a few days depending on lab workload and sample type.

Mold is common in the environment. What matters is context:

That’s why inspection + testing together is so valuable: it turns data into a plan.

Mold testing is especially common during:

Home buying & selling

Whether you’re the buyer looking for peace of mind or the seller trying to prevent last-minute surprises, testing can provide:

  • Clear documentation
  • A calmer negotiation process
  • More certainty about what’s happening in the home

Clearance-style testing after remediation

If mold was addressed recently, you may want confirmation that:

  • Conditions are back to normal
  • The underlying moisture issue has been handled
  • The space is ready to confidently reoccupy or close on

If you’re on a timeline, the on-site insight from InstaScope™ can be a major advantage.
