Journey Inspections

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs that shouldn't be done by the same company. An inspector's job is to find mold and report what they discover, while a remediation contractor fixes the problem. When one company does both, they have a financial reason to recommend expensive fixes, even when they might not be necessary. That's why industry standards say these services should stay separate. In Colorado Springs, where homes often date back to the 1980s and moisture can be an issue, getting an independent inspection first makes sense before you decide on any fixes.

Journey Inspections handles the inspection side, giving you an unbiased look at whether mold is actually present in your home. Once you have that report, you can shop around for a remediation contractor separately and get competitive bids. If you do need remediation work, make sure any contractor you hire carries both general liability and pollution liability insurance, and ask to verify their IICRC certification before you sign anything.
