Every inspection is photo-documented ($200–$600, credited toward remediation we perform [VERIFY policy]): moisture mapping, extent, cause, and pictures of all of it, reviewed with you before any scope is priced. Most inspections schedule within two business days; active water jumps the line.
What we check
- Moisture readings across suspect surfaces and the rooms around them
- Relative humidity by area — the climate's fingerprints indoors
- Visible growth photographed and measured against the EPA's ~10 sq ft threshold
- HVAC, ducts, attics, and cavities where symptoms point
- The water path — roof, plumbing, exterior — because cause decides the fix
What you get
A photo set of your actual building, the readings, and a written itemized scope — portable to any contractor or adjuster. In this climate the range between "clean the bathroom corner yourself" and "room-scale remediation" is wide, and the readings are what place your building honestly. If the answer is a DIY afternoon, that's the report you get; if it's a real project, you'll see exactly why in the photos before you see the number.
How the inspection prices mold removal
Every line of a mold removal scope traces to something the inspection measured: square footage of growth sets the removal labor, materials involved set what comes out versus what cleans, cavity readings set how far past the visible stain the containment reaches, and the cause sets the moisture-repair line. That's why we won't quote mold removal over the phone — not because we're precious about process, but because a number without measurements is either padded to cover surprises or primed to grow after the work starts. Measured first, priced once, honored as written.
Common questions about booking
How fast can you get here?
Most inspections book within two business days; active water jumps the line same-day or next-day [VERIFY commitment].
Is the fee really credited back?
Toward remediation we perform, yes [VERIFY policy] — so the evidence step costs nothing extra for those who needed it.
Should I clean before you arrive?
Please don't — disturbed growth spreads spores and erases evidence. Leave it as found; ventilate the rest of the house.
Can my landlord or tenant get the report too?
The report is yours to share — and it's written to hold up in exactly those conversations.
