Remediation Group

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 identify mold problems objectively, while a remediation company's job is to fix them - and that creates a conflict of interest when one business does both. You need an independent inspector to give you an honest assessment of what's actually there. In Atlanta, where humidity averages 72% and rain is frequent, mold can become a real issue, especially in older homes built around 1979 or earlier. That's why it matters to keep these roles separate.

When you're ready to hire someone, start with a standalone mold inspection (typically $200-$600 in this region) from an independent source, not from Remediation Group or any company that also does remediation work. Once you have that inspection report, you can then contact remediation contractors separately. Before you sign anything with any contractor, verify they have IICRC S520 certification along with both general liability and pollution liability insurance. Georgia doesn't require a specific mold remediation license, so those credentials are what you should be looking for.
