What this listing says
Westchester County homeowners and realtors who want independent mold, radon, or water testing from a testing-only firm that does not sell remediation work.
Best for
- Homebuyers in Westchester, Dutchess, or Rockland County who need pre-purchase mold, radon, or water testing from a firm with no remediation conflict.
- Realtors looking for a testing partner who can turn around results quickly and explain findings directly to clients during transactions.
- Homeowners dealing with water damage, musty odors, or health symptoms who want an unbiased assessment before hiring a remediation company.
- Commercial property owners or landlords in the Hudson Valley who need air quality or water quality documentation.
About this company
MoldTec is a testing-only environmental firm based in Ossining, NY, run by Jeff Ramsey. They do not perform remediation, mitigation, or filtration — they test, report, and refer you to separate contractors. New York State law (Article 32) prohibits the same company from doing both mold assessment and mold remediation on the same property, and MoldTec built its business around that separation. They serve residential and commercial properties across a wide swath of the Hudson Valley and tri-state area.
What stands out is the pricing model. Every mold inspection includes indoor air quality assessment at no extra cost, and they charge a flat fee per inspection ($550 for mold, $199 for radon) rather than billing per sample or per room. They use moisture meters, infrared imaging, and send samples to third-party labs. Reports come back in about 3 business days, with rush next-day available. They also arrive in unmarked vehicles for discretion.
Jeff Ramsey holds InterNACHI certifications for mold inspection, radon testing, and water quality testing. MoldTec is a member of the Business Council of Westchester and Green Ossining, and Jeff volunteers as a water quality tester for Riverkeeper. The company serves both residential and commercial clients, and works closely with realtors during home transactions.
A 5.0 rating across 119 Google reviews is remarkable. That volume with a perfect score suggests a genuinely consistent operation, not just a handful of friends leaving reviews. Many reviewers are Local Guides and established Google users, and several are realtors who use MoldTec repeatedly for client transactions.

Review consensus
Jeff Ramsey is named in the vast majority of reviews. Reviewers consistently highlight his responsiveness (multiple mention same-day or next-day scheduling, including weekends), his willingness to explain findings in plain language, and his follow-up after inspections — even months later. Several realtors (Sandy Rooney, Jennifer Morfea, Sheronica Outlaw, Gwen Weiss) describe him as a go-to partner for real estate transactions. Gene Gass, who identifies as running a mold remediation company, rates MoldTec at the top of his list of assessors. Multiple reviewers note that Jeff provided useful referrals for plumbers and remediation contractors beyond his inspection scope. One reviewer (shraddhaa mahapatra) specifically credits Jeff with identifying that a previous company had provided a fraudulent lab report.

The review base includes a notable number of realtors and repeat referral sources, suggesting MoldTec has built a reputation within the local real estate community specifically. Several reviewers mention being referred by brokers, friends, or other contractors. At least one review (Gisella Ramirez) is written entirely in Spanish, indicating the company serves Spanish-speaking clients.
Jeff Ramsey (owner, inspector — universally positive across nearly all reviews).
MoldTec is a one-person testing operation with an unusually strong track record. Ask for Jeff directly — he is the operation. If you want a fast, explained-in-plain-English assessment before hiring a remediation company, this is a strong option in the Westchester area. Confirm scheduling and travel feasibility if your property is on the outer edges of their claimed service area.
Keep in mind
- MoldTec does not perform remediation, mitigation, or filtration. If testing reveals a problem, you will need to hire a separate contractor. Jeff provides referrals, but you should still get multiple quotes.
- Their service area spans multiple counties across three states. Confirm availability and any travel fees for locations far from their Ossining base, particularly for NJ, CT, or Long Island.
- At $550 per mold inspection, pricing is transparent but not the cheapest option. The flat fee includes air quality assessment, so compare total cost against competitors who charge per sample.
- With zero negative reviews in 18 months and a perfect 5.0 rating, there is no complaint data to evaluate. This is unusual — it means you are relying entirely on positive signals.
