Key Inspection Services, LLC

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different services, and here's why it matters: an inspector identifies the problem, while a remediator fixes it. When the same company does both, they have a financial incentive to recommend expensive remediation work, even if it's not necessary. That's why industry standards say these should be separate. Key Inspection Services, LLC operates as a mold inspector in Everett, which means they're positioned to give you an unbiased assessment of what's actually happening in your home.

Everett's damp climate (averaging 81% relative humidity and 36 inches of rain yearly) makes mold a real concern, especially in older homes like many built around 1980. A standalone mold inspection typically costs between $200 and $600 in this region. If Key Inspection Services, LLC does find mold, you'll want to hire a separate remediation contractor - and make sure they hold a valid contractor registration with Washington State's Department of Labor and Industries.
