Dry Pros

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs, and it matters who does them. An inspector's job is to find mold, identify the source, and give you an honest report. A remediation company's job is to fix the problem. When the same business does both, they have a reason to find more mold and recommend bigger fixes, even if you don't need them. That's why industry standards say these should be separate. In South Fulton, where humidity runs high and rain is frequent, mold shows up regularly in older homes. You'll want an inspector who has no financial stake in what comes next.

Dry Pros is listed as a mold inspector in South Fulton. Before you hire them or any inspector, ask whether they also do remediation work. If they do, consider calling someone else for the inspection. Look for inspectors who hold IICRC S520 certification and can show you general liability and pollution liability insurance. A standalone inspection typically costs between $200 and $600 in this region. Before you sign anything, confirm in writing that the inspector will not perform any remediation work.
