JMR Property Inspections

A mold inspection in Springfield typically costs between $200 and $600, depending on your home's size and how accessible problem areas are. Older homes, like many built around 1951 when Springfield's housing stock was established, can sometimes run higher since inspectors need extra time to evaluate foundations and crawl spaces. When you're comparing quotes, ask whether the inspector also does mold remediation work - if they do both, that creates a conflict of interest, since they'd profit from finding more mold to remove.

JMR Property Inspections offers mold inspection services to Springfield homeowners. Before you hire them or any inspector, verify that they hold IICRC S520 certification, which is the industry standard for this work. Also confirm they're registered as a home improvement contractor with Massachusetts' Office of Consumer Affairs, since that registration protects you as a consumer. Ask specifically whether they perform both inspection and remediation, or inspection only - you'll want an inspector whose only job is to give you honest findings.
