Mold Inspection
The fee structure detailed below is intended to give a general idea of what we charge.
Our fees are as varied and flexible as the conditions we encounter, so our fee structure
is not set in stone. A firm and very competitive quote for your inspection can be
obtained by calling our office and providing honest detailed information about the
property in and your specific needs and concerns.
Partial Mold Inspection
A partial mold inspection of a residential property costs $250 for the inspection
and $100.00 for each sample taken. Total fees are typically $500.00 to $800.00 depending
on the number of samples taken. This option is best for an inspection of just one
or two rooms that are suspected of having a mold problem. The mold inspection consists
of a complete in-depth visual inspection of accessible areas by an experienced inspection.
Several samples are taken, including two outdoor air sample. IAC2 certified mold
inspectors use outdoor samples to determine if indoor spore levels are typical for
the area or if they are concentrated and unusually high in your home. Our fee includes
spore analysis, the mold inspection report and remediation recommendations. If deemed
advisable (and with your permission), additional mold and spore samples may be taken
for analysis at an additional cost of $100.00 each.
Full Mold Inspection
If you know that there are several areas of visible mold growth or water intrusion
in your home and/or you or a family member is experiencing illness, you can have
a full mold test conducted on the accessible areas of your residence. The fee is
$400 for the inspection and $100.00 for each sample taken (six to ten samples will
typically be obtained for testing). The total fee is around $1,000.00, which includes
spore analysis, the lab report, mold inspection report and remediation recommendations.
Extensive Mold Inspection - Includes 11 to 20 Samples and up.
Additional samples are needed for buildings that have a more severe mold problem.
These include commercial or multi-unit properties up to 10,000 square feet, residences
where the occupants are experiencing illness from hidden molds, or situations with
legal issues requiring documentation. Typically 11 to 20 samples are taken at a
fee of $100 per sample. This fee covers all analysis, the mold inspection report
and remediation recommendations.
