Mold Dog Knows

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs, and it's important they stay that way. An inspector's job is to find mold and tell you what's there. A remediation company's job is to fix it. When the same business does both, there's a built-in incentive to recommend more work than you actually need. That's why the industry standard keeps these roles separate. In Fort Worth, where humidity averages 63% and rain totals 36 inches a year, mold can be a real concern in older homes. Mold Dog Knows operates as an inspection service, so you get an honest assessment without that conflict of interest.

Once you have a clear inspection report, you'll be in a stronger position to evaluate remediation bids. A typical mold inspection in this region costs between $200 and $600, which is a worthwhile investment for peace of mind. Before you hire any remediation contractor to act on those findings, verify that 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. That's your safeguard.
