About this company

Green Guard Mold Remediation operates out of Plainfield, NJ, and serves Union County communities including Clark, Cranford, Westfield, Scotch Plains, and both North and South Plainfield. They handle mold testing, remediation, water damage restoration, fire damage, and flood damage. They do both testing and remediation in-house, which means the same company diagnosing your mold problem is also quoting the fix.

Their testing toolkit includes thermal imaging cameras for finding hidden moisture behind walls, moisture meters, air sampling, and surface sampling. They send samples to a lab for analysis. On the remediation side, they advertise eco-friendly, non-toxic products and offer a 2-year guarantee on their work. Several reviewers describe crews sealing off work areas and cleaning up thoroughly after removal.

The company appears relatively new, with its website copyright dated 2024 and the earliest Google review from September 2024. Despite that short track record, they have accumulated 62 reviews at a perfect 5.0-star rating, which is unusual volume and consistency for a company this young.

A 5.0-star rating across 62 reviews is rare on Google. It suggests strong execution, but the absence of any negative feedback also means there is no public record of how the company handles problems when things go wrong.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Eric is the most frequently named technician, appearing in roughly a third of all reviews. Reviewers consistently credit him with clear explanations, fast response, and thorough work on attic mold, bathroom mold, and thermal imaging inspections. Adam draws praise for shower mold removal and finding hidden mold behind walls. Abie stood out to one reviewer for explaining mold causes and texting product recommendations after the job. Mike handled a basement remediation that earned strong praise. Avraham is noted for air quality testing. Across the board, reviewers highlight punctuality, clean work areas, and willingness to explain the process step by step.

What low reviews reveal

0 found across 62 total reviews at 5.0★. No one-star reviews exist in the last 18 months. With 62 reviews at a 5.0-star rating, there is no negative feedback to analyze.

Pattern worth noting

The review profile raises a few soft flags. Nearly all reviewers have very low review counts (1-3 reviews), and few are Google Local Guides. Many reviews were posted in clusters on the same date. None of this proves anything is wrong, but combined with a perfect 5.0 rating across 62 reviews for a company that started getting reviews in late 2024, it is worth noting. The reviews themselves are generally specific enough to sound like real experiences, naming staff, describing locations in the home, and referencing particular services.

Named staff

Eric (technician/inspector — praised repeatedly for mold removal, inspections, thermal imaging, clear communication, and fast response). Adam (technician — praised for shower mold removal, finding hidden mold, and kitchen cabinet mold removal). Abie (technician — praised for explaining mold causes and following up with product recommendations). Mike (technician — praised for basement mold removal). Avraham (technician — praised for air quality testing).

Bottom line

If you hire Green Guard, ask for Eric or Adam by name since they appear most often in positive reviews. Get an independent mold test before agreeing to remediation work, given the conflict of interest. Ask what specifically the 2-year guarantee covers and whether it transfers if you sell the property.

Keep in mind

  • They do both testing and remediation, which is a conflict of interest. The company that finds the mold is also the one quoting you for removal. Consider getting an independent test from a separate inspector to confirm the scope of work before signing a remediation contract.
  • The company is young, with reviews starting in late 2024. A 2-year guarantee is only useful if the company is still around in 2 years. Ask about what backs the guarantee.
  • A perfect 5.0-star rating across 62 reviews is statistically unusual. It does not necessarily mean anything is wrong, but it means you have no public examples of how they handle dissatisfied customers.
  • Their service area covers multiple towns across Union County. Confirm they can reach your location within the timeframe they promise, especially for emergency calls.
  • The website lists fire damage and flood damage as services, but reviews focus almost entirely on mold. Ask about their actual experience with non-mold restoration work.
