“Wow! Me and my husband were blown away with Pure Air. Randy was VERY knowledgeable, kind, and hard working. He really cared about our situation and it showed! Highly recommend this company for anyone with even a suspicion of mold.”
“Jack came out and immediately found the mold we had been suspecting for awhile. My husband was suffering from brain fog and headaches. My son had been to the ER multiple times last year because of breathing issues. Since getting the mold removed my son and husband’s issues have disappeared. I was shocked at the difference in the air sampling from before and after.”
“Scott Kennemer came to our home and sat down and explained the entire process to us. Next Ry and Dee came out and explained everything they would be doing for the day. Our situation is a 100% better — the pulmonary doctor is amazed at how much better my husband can breathe. I can’t say enough good things about this company and the employees!”
“Pure Air of Alabama came to the rescue. Ri the tech did an awesome job — I slept in my room after treatment for the first time in 2 weeks. Mold gone, breathing good, no musty smell anymore. I would use Pure Air again and again.”
“Great company! I reported a possible mold problem around 11:00 in the morning and had the room cleaned before 7:00 that night. I know that is not always going to be possible, but we had a problem that needed attention asap and they made it happen.”
“From the 1st phone call to the final visit, everything could not have gone any smoother. A gentleman came to my house for a site visit — he was transparent and made me feel comfortable with the process. Dee was very friendly and professional. I highly recommend this company!”
Black mold feeds on anything with cellulose: drywall paper, ceiling tiles, carpet backing, wood framing. It shows up after water has been sitting somewhere it shouldn’t. In Birmingham that usually means a slow roof leak after one of our heavy spring storms, standing water in a crawl space, or humidity nobody caught behind a bathroom wall. If you’re seeing dark greenish-black patches and smelling something musty and earthy, get it looked at. The health side matters too. Exposure can cause ongoing sinus issues, coughing, headaches, and that strange fatigue that lifts the moment you leave the house. Whatever you do, don’t try to scrub it off yourself. Disturbing black mold kicks spores into the air and spreads the problem into rooms that were fine an hour ago.
We start with testing, not guessing. Air and surface samples go to an independent lab that identifies the exact species and concentration. Once we know what’s in your home, we bring in Pure Air Alabama’s patented VaPURE technology. It’s a dry-fog sterilant that reaches the places traditional remediation can’t: inside wall cavities, under flooring, behind baseboards, anywhere moisture has been hiding. The active ingredient is on the EPA’s Safer Chemical Ingredients List, so your family and pets can usually come back the same day. There’s no chemical smell afterward, and you’re not trading one health problem for another. We follow up with a second coat that bonds to surfaces and helps stop regrowth. Most of the time, we avoid the tear-out and rebuild that traditional mold jobs require.
Traditional black mold remediation gets expensive quickly. The old-school approach means full containment, hazmat gear, cutting out walls and floors, hauling everything off as contaminated waste, and then rebuilding the house afterward. You can easily spend tens of thousands of dollars and wait weeks to get your home back. Our process destroys the mold without most of that demolition, which brings the price down considerably. Every job is different, so we inspect, test, and give you a clear upfront quote before any work starts. No hidden fees, no surprise add-ons, no selling you work you don’t actually need.
Black mold scares people, and some companies use that fear to push expensive demolition you don’t need. Others will spray something on the surface and call it done. We do neither. Independent lab testing tells us what’s really there, VaPURE handles the mold throughout the property, and a second round of post-treatment lab testing confirms it worked. We guarantee indoor mold levels will be lower than outdoor levels when we’re finished, or we come back and retreat at no cost. We’re local to Birmingham, we answer the phone, and we show up when we say we will.
If you’re worried about black mold in your home, you don’t have to sit with it another day. Call Pure Air Alabama at (866) 928-5551 and we’ll come out, test what’s actually there, and give you straight answers. Same-day service is usually available.
