Smith & Smith Home Inspections

When you suspect mold in your home, you need two separate things: an inspection to identify the problem, and remediation to fix it. Here's why it matters - a company that does both has a financial incentive to find mold and recommend expensive fixes, which creates a conflict of interest. Industry standards exist precisely to keep these roles separate. That's where Smith & Smith Home Inspections comes in. They provide the objective assessment you need without that built-in bias pushing you toward costly solutions.

Murfreesboro's humid climate (averaging 72% relative humidity and 47 inches of rain annually) makes mold a real concern for many homeowners, especially in older homes like the median property built in 2000. A mold inspection typically costs $200-$600 in this region and gives you the facts you need to make your own decisions about next steps. Before you hire anyone for remediation work, verify they hold the proper Tennessee S-Mold Contractor License if the project exceeds $25,000 - you can check this at search.cloud.commerce.tn.gov. Ask Smith & Smith Home Inspections upfront whether they perform any remediation work themselves, and get that answer in writing.
