What MoldFixer is
MoldFixer is a free service that connects San Diego County property owners and renters with local mold remediation, mold inspection and water damage specialists. We are not a licensed contractor and we do not carry out inspection or remediation work ourselves.
All work is performed by independent contractors. They set their own prices, contract with you directly and are paid directly by you. MoldFixer does not warrant or guarantee the work of any contractor. Before work begins you are encouraged to verify the contractor's California licence, bond and workers' compensation status at cslb.ca.gov.

General information only
Everything on this website is general information about mold, moisture and water damage in San Diego County buildings. Every property is different. Nothing here substitutes for an inspection of your specific property by a qualified person.
Not medical advice
Our pages describe what public health bodies associate with dampness and indoor mold exposure. That is background information, not a diagnosis and not medical advice. If you or someone in your household has symptoms, see a physician. We do not diagnose illness, we do not interpret medical tests, and we are sceptical of anyone in this industry who offers to.
Not legal advice
Our pages reference California provisions including Health and Safety Code section 17920.3, Civil Code sections 1941.1 and 1941.7, the Davis-Stirling Common Interest Development Act and real estate disclosure obligations. These references are general orientation, they may be summarised or simplified, and the law changes. For advice about your situation, consult an attorney or a tenants' rights organisation.
Not insurance advice
Coverage descriptions on this site are general patterns in California homeowners policies. Your own policy, endorsements and state of facts control. We document losses technically; we do not negotiate claims, and in California representing an insured in a claim for a fee requires a public adjuster licence.
Prices are indicative ranges, not quotes
Every figure on this site is an indicative range for San Diego County. These are published because vague pricing wastes everyone's time — not because they are offers, estimates or guarantees. No price on this site is binding on anyone. Your actual price is set by the contractor you hire, in a written estimate, after they have seen the property. Costs vary with the extent of the growth, the materials affected, the category of water involved, access, and whether structural drying is needed.
No guarantee of outcome
We describe methods and standards, including the IICRC S520 standard for professional mold remediation. Following a standard is not a guarantee of a particular result, and mold will recur in any building where the moisture source is not corrected.
Accuracy
We try to keep this site accurate and current and we update it. If you find something wrong or out of date, email [email protected] and we will correct it.
