Cosmic Property Inspections, LLC

When you suspect mold in your home, you need two separate services: an inspection to identify the problem, and remediation to fix it. A mold inspector's job is to find mold, document it, and tell you what needs to happen next. A remediation company's job is to remove it and charge you for the work. When the same company does both, there's a built-in incentive to recommend expensive solutions you might not actually need. That's why industry standards keep these services separate. In Springfield, where homes built around 1951 sit in a humid climate with significant rainfall, mold problems aren't uncommon. Cosmic Property Inspections, LLC focuses on the inspection side, which means they're looking out for your interests, not their bottom line.

If you're ready to get an inspection, Cosmic Property Inspections, LLC can give you a clear picture of what's happening in your home. A standalone mold inspection in this region typically costs between $200 and $600, depending on the scope. Before you call anyone, verify that any remediation contractor you eventually hire holds IICRC S520 certification and is registered with Massachusetts' Office of Consumer Affairs, since the state doesn't have a specific mold remediation license.
