Best for

  • Homeowners in New Brunswick, Edison, Elizabeth, or Jersey City who need mold testing and removal from the same company.
  • Buyers or sellers who need mold remediation completed on a tight closing timeline — multiple reviewers confirm fast scheduling.
  • Property owners who want eco-friendly, non-toxic mold treatments, especially in homes with children, pets, or residents with asthma.
  • Landlords and managers of multi-unit buildings in central New Jersey where mold spreads across shared walls and plumbing.
  • Anyone who found hidden mold after a leak or flood and needs moisture detection to trace the water source.

About this company

New Jersey Mold Specialist operates out of New Brunswick and covers a wide swath of northern and central New Jersey. They do both mold testing and mold remediation in-house, meaning you deal with one company from inspection through cleanup. Their website claims 15+ specialists and 25+ employees, and they offer 24/7 emergency response.

Two things stand out. First, they emphasize eco-friendly, plant-based treatments rather than harsh chemical approaches. Second, multiple reviewers mention thermal imaging and moisture detection as part of the inspection process, which goes beyond a basic visual check. They also do air sampling and surface sampling, sending results to a lab before building a remediation plan.

The company serves both residential and commercial properties, and several reviews describe mold work completed in time for real estate closings. Reviewers regularly name Eric and Adam as the primary contacts, with Eric handling inspections and moisture testing and Adam doing hands-on remediation work.

A perfect 5.0 rating across 66 Google reviews is unusual. No company is flawless, but there are genuinely zero negative reviews in the recent window. The review base skews toward the Bukharian and broader Jewish community in central New Jersey, which suggests strong word-of-mouth referrals within that network.

Service area

Headquartered in New Brunswick, NJ. Location pages exist for Jersey City, Plainfield, Hackensack, Edison, Elizabeth, Livingston, and Union. The website also lists Princeton, Newark, Paterson, Atlantic City, and Toms River as service areas. The claim of serving 25 states appears on the homepage but has no supporting detail — treat coverage outside central and northern New Jersey with skepticism.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Eric gets the most mentions — reviewers praise him for honest assessments, clear explanations, and no scare tactics. Shimi specifically noted Eric gave information without pressure. Adam draws praise for hands-on remediation work, with Ben Tsadyk crediting him for finding hidden mold from a leaking shower valve and completing the fix immediately. Boris Davydov highlighted both Eric and Adam together for being knowledgeable and honest. Multiple reviewers confirm fast scheduling, with Jonathan Shamayev getting same-week service after calling for an estimate. Giovanni Carlucci praised the team for sealing off his home during remediation to protect his ventilation system because of his asthma. Several reviewers used the company during real estate transactions and praised the speed — Loveandlies got mold removal completed in time for a closing, and Kunal Patel received a certification document for buyers.

What low reviews reveal

Pattern worth noting

The reviewer base has a notable concentration of names suggesting the Bukharian Jewish community in central New Jersey. This points to strong word-of-mouth referrals within a tight-knit community, which often reflects genuine satisfaction but also means the review pool may not represent the full range of customers. Two reviewers (Avi Ovadia and Yoni Asulin) posted identical review text about a pre-purchase mold inspection by Adam, which could indicate a template or coordinated review.

Named staff

Eric (inspector/assessor — praised repeatedly for honesty, clear explanations, moisture testing, and no-pressure approach). Adam (remediation technician/inspector — praised for hands-on work, pre-purchase inspections, and clear reports). Tyler (inspector — praised for professionalism and knowledge by Osher K). Terry (inspector — praised for finding issues quickly by SafirK). James (remediation — praised for fast, clean work by Yarelis Espinosa).

Bottom line

Ask for Eric if you want an inspection with straightforward explanations, and Adam if you need hands-on remediation. Get an independent assessment if the scope of work seems larger than expected, since this company tests and remediates under the same roof. The perfect review record is encouraging but ask for references from jobs similar to yours.

Keep in mind

  • They do both testing and remediation, which creates a conflict of interest. The company that finds the mold also profits from removing it. Ask whether you can bring in a separate assessor if you want an independent opinion.
  • The website claims service across 25 states. Their Google reviews and location pages focus entirely on New Jersey. Confirm they actually serve your area before scheduling.
  • Two reviewers refer to the company as "Green Guard" rather than New Jersey Mold Specialist. This may be a DBA, a former name, or a brand they operate under. Clarify who exactly is showing up.
  • Every single review is 5 stars. While that could reflect strong service, the absence of any dissenting voice makes it harder to gauge how the company handles problems when things go wrong.
  • The website is heavy on marketing language and light on specific credentials. Ask directly about technician certifications and what training their team holds.
