Structure Tech Home Inspections

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different services, and here's why it matters: inspectors identify and document mold problems, while remediation companies fix them. When the same company does both, there's a built-in conflict of interest - they profit from finding problems and then selling you the solution. That's why industry standards keep these roles separate. Structure Tech Home Inspections in Minneapolis handles the inspection side, giving you an unbiased assessment of what's actually happening in your home.

Minneapolis homes face real moisture challenges, with the region averaging 70% relative humidity and significant annual rainfall. Older homes, especially those built around 1956 (the median age here), are particularly vulnerable to mold issues. A standalone mold inspection typically costs $200-$600 in this area and gives you clear information to make decisions. Before you hire anyone, verify they're licensed by the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry and ask whether they hold IICRC S520 certification, which shows they're trained specifically in mold assessment.
