HOMTEC Inspections

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs. An inspector identifies where mold exists and what's causing it, while a remediation company removes it. When the same company does both, there's a built-in conflict of interest - they profit from finding problems and selling you the solution. That's why industry standards keep these services separate. In Toledo, where older homes and humid conditions create ideal environments for mold growth, having an independent inspector protects you. HOMTEC Inspections keeps that independence, giving you honest findings without a financial stake in the remediation work that follows.

When you're ready to hire an inspector in Toledo, expect to pay $200-$600 for a standalone mold inspection. Before you sign anything with HOMTEC Inspections or any inspector, ask whether they perform remediation work. If they say yes, find someone else. Also verify they carry general liability and pollution liability coverage - Ohio doesn't require a statewide mold remediation license, so insurance is your safeguard that you're working with someone accountable.
