Gale Insulation was contracted as part of a mold remediation in 2016 to fix a faulty insulation install that was at the source of mold intrusion in our home. Fast forward to April 2019. Discovered that mold was back. Discovered that this was the case because Gale Insulation not only botched the insulation job and crushed the baffles that allow air flow, they also apparently damaged a venting fan during that insulation job. The combination of moist air entering the attic cavity with the blocked air flow from the crushed baffles contributed to ideal conditions for mold growth.
A mold remediation process costs thousands of dollars just for addressing the initial mold removal. Best practices are then to get rid of your books, your clothes, your furniture, your carpeting, your plants, etc. Whole house cleaning is upward of $2K. Ripping out your carpeting and replacing is upwards of $5K per floor. Then there is the HVAC decontamination, and mold testing that costs several hundred dollars. Finally, there is the massive medical bills for mold testing and treating CIRS (mycotoxin induced illness), which is highly specialized care, for each member of the family.
When a neighbor, who worked for the PUD, saw the unfolding of the remediation effort at our house, he reached out to us. When I told him about Gale Insulation, he commented, "No surprise there. Gale Insulation is incompetent and has been for years."
Do NOT let these people in your home.
