About this company
Mold Busters Greenville is a locally owned, family-run mold remediation company in Greenville, South Carolina. Benjamin Redd owns and operates the business and handles most inspections and treatments himself. The company serves both residential and commercial properties across the Greenville-Spartanburg upstate region.
The standout here is their dry fog process. They use a patented two-step system: InstaPURE dry fog to destroy mold, followed by EverPURE antimicrobial treatment that provides 90-plus days of surface protection. This approach often skips demolition entirely, which matters when you are comparing quotes. One reviewer reported getting four quotes from $6,000 to $16,000 for the same job, and Mold Busters came in well below the highest. The dry fog fills entire spaces including attics, crawlspaces, and air ducts. After treatment, they run lab tests to confirm mold levels dropped.
Benjamin Redd holds a NORMI membership and a Micro certification as a mold remediation contractor. The company offers virtual and in-person inspections, air quality testing with branded MoldREPORT results, and post-treatment verification through third-party lab work. They also offer same-day or next-day scheduling in many cases.
A perfect 5.0 stars across 71 Google reviews is unusual for any service company. Every single review in the dataset is five stars, spanning from 2021 through mid-2026. Multiple reviewers specifically call out that Benjamin told them they did not have a mold problem or that the issue was minor, which suggests he is not inflating scopes to sell remediation work.

Review consensus
Benjamin Redd dominates the reviews. Reviewers consistently highlight three things: honest assessments where he tells customers they do not have a problem (Cress, Ramona Bowers), competitive pricing compared to other quotes (todd nelson, Lisa Briganti), and his willingness to explain the process and results in detail (Kristen Arena, Letty Poppleton, Deb Kady). Office staff Mara and Sarah get a specific mention from SD Massey for easy scheduling. Multiple reviewers note same-day or next-day response times. Repeat customers and local realtors appear in the review base, suggesting ongoing relationships rather than one-time transactions.
0 found across 71 total reviews at 5.0★. No negative reviews exist in the last 18 months. Across all 71 reviews, every single one is five stars. There is no complaint data to analyze.
The owner-operator model is the defining pattern here. Benjamin Redd personally handles inspections, treatments, follow-up calls to review lab results, and even returns for re-treatment if needed. This is not a company with field technicians and a separate sales team. The consistency of the review experience traces directly to one person doing most of the work. The risk is the same as the strength: if Benjamin is unavailable, there is no obvious backup with the same track record.
Benjamin Redd (owner, technician -- positive across nearly every review). Kirsten (office contact -- positive, mentioned by Vickie G.). Mara (office staff -- positive, mentioned by SD Massey). Sarah (office staff -- positive, mentioned by SD Massey).
Ask for Benjamin directly and confirm he will handle your inspection and treatment. Get a separate mold test from an independent lab if you want to verify the scope of work before signing a remediation contract. The dry fog method is a real differentiator for jobs where demolition would be expensive or disruptive, but make sure you understand what it does and does not address regarding the moisture source.
Keep in mind
- Mold Busters does both testing and remediation, which creates a conflict of interest. The company that tells you whether you have mold is the same company that sells you the treatment. Consider getting an independent test to confirm findings before committing to remediation.
- The dry fog method works differently from traditional tear-out remediation. It destroys mold on contact but does not remove the dead mold or address the moisture source that caused it. Ask what happens if the underlying moisture problem is not fixed.
- The 90-day surface protection from EverPURE is a time-limited barrier, not a permanent fix. Ask what happens after 90 days and whether retreatment is needed.
- All 71 reviews are five stars with zero negatives, which is statistically uncommon. There is no negative review data to assess how the company handles complaints.
- The service area lists 11 cities across the upstate from Easley to Spartanburg. Confirm scheduling availability for your specific location.
