Crawl Space Brothers

A high review count tells you that a business has satisfied customers, but it doesn't tell you everything. You'll want to know whether the company performing your mold inspection also does the remediation work. Crawl Space Brothers is listed as a mold inspector in Asheville, and this matters because inspectors who also perform remediation have a built-in conflict of interest - they benefit financially from finding problems that require their services. North Carolina doesn't require a specific mold remediation license, so verify that any contractor you hire holds a general contractor's license from the NCLBGC and carries appropriate insurance.

Asheville's humid climate (averaging 73% relative humidity) and older housing stock make mold a real concern for many homeowners. A standalone mold inspection typically costs between $200 and $600 in this region. Before you call anyone, decide whether you want an independent inspector to assess your crawl space first, or if you'd prefer a single contractor to handle both inspection and any necessary work. Either way, get that insurance verification in writing before signing any agreement.
