About this company
RVA Mold Remediation is a Richmond, Virginia company that focuses exclusively on mold. Unlike larger restoration outfits that treat mold as one line item among many, this is their entire business -- inspections, removal, and prevention. They offer free estimates and a 10% discount for first-time customers.
One thing that stands out is their willingness to take on difficult-access work. A recent reviewer described them handling mold on trusses inside a high cathedral ceiling with an A-frame structure, applying Kilz encapsulant -- a job other companies turned down because of the height. They also install roof exhaust fan systems in attics and crawlspaces, which addresses the ventilation problems that cause mold to return.
The company has been operating in the Richmond metro area since at least 2015, based on their earliest Google reviews. Their website is straightforward but light on specifics about equipment or certifications. What comes through instead is a no-upsell philosophy -- they emphasize only recommending work you actually need.
84 Google reviews at 4.8 stars with no complaints in the past 18 months is a strong track record. For a small, mold-focused operation, that kind of consistency over years suggests the work is being done right.
Services
Service area
Based in Richmond, Virginia. Serves a broad area across central Virginia including Henrico, Chesterfield, Hanover, Goochland, Powhatan, Louisa, Amelia, Cumberland, and Dinwiddie counties, plus cities like Petersburg, Colonial Heights, Hopewell, Mechanicsville, Midlothian, Glen Allen, Short Pump, and roughly 20 other communities. One reviewer in Wilmington, NC, mentioned them operating there, which may indicate occasional work outside the Richmond metro.
Review consensus
Fair pricing comes up repeatedly -- multiple reviewers mention costs coming in at or below estimates, with no hidden charges. Timeliness is another theme: reviewers describe quick responses, on-time arrivals, and fast turnaround. Chris is named specifically for providing clear explanations of mold issues and honest assessments. Several reviewers mention the company working with their insurance. Crawlspace and basement work gets frequent mention, and one reviewer described successful remediation of a high cathedral ceiling that other companies refused.
0 found across 84 total reviews at 4.8★. No complaints have been posted in the last 18 months across 84 total reviews at 4.8 stars. The absence of recent negatives is notable for a company with this volume of reviews.
The review timeline shows steady activity from 2015 through 2026, with a noticeable uptick in volume during late 2024 and into 2025-2026. Many of the newer reviews are from single-review accounts, which is common for home service companies but worth noting. The more established reviewers -- Local Guides like Mike Yeatts (53 reviews), Suzanne Perrin (37 reviews), and Chris Conway (13 reviews) -- are consistently positive and provide the most detailed accounts of the work performed.
Chris (technician/inspector -- positive). Named by David Rupert for providing a clear explanation of a mold issue and recommended next steps.
With no recent complaints and consistent praise for fair pricing and honest assessments, RVA Mold Remediation has a clean track record. Ask for Chris if you want someone who will walk you through the problem in detail. Because they handle both inspection and remediation, get an independent test if the scope of recommended work feels larger than expected.
Keep in mind
- They do both mold testing and mold remediation, which creates a conflict of interest. A company that finds the mold also profits from removing it. Consider getting a second opinion on any inspection results before committing to remediation work.
- The website does not mention specific certifications or trade organization memberships. If credentials matter to you, ask directly what training and certifications the crew holds.
- Their service area list covers 30+ cities and counties across central Virginia. For locations on the outer edges of that list, confirm response times and whether travel fees apply.
- The website still lists COVID-19 disinfecting as a service, which suggests it may not be updated regularly. Verify current service offerings when you call.
