AWA Environmental

Baytown's humid subtropical climate - with average humidity around 80% and substantial rainfall - creates ideal conditions for mold growth, especially in older homes. The median house here was built in 1980, meaning many properties have the age and moisture exposure that invite mold problems. When you suspect mold in your Baytown home, getting a professional inspection is a smart first step, typically costing $200-$600 in this region. AWA Environmental offers mold inspection services, but before you call, you should know that inspectors who also perform remediation work face an inherent conflict of interest under industry standards - they have financial incentive to find problems that require their own remediation services.

To protect yourself, hire a mold inspector who only inspects and doesn't do remediation work. If AWA Environmental does both services, consider getting your inspection from someone independent instead. Should you decide to work with any mold remediation contractor in Texas, verify they hold a current Texas Mold Remediation Contractor License from the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR). You can check their license status at tdlr.texas.gov before signing any contract - this simple step takes minutes and protects your investment.
