Pacific Home Inspections

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two very different services, and it's important they come from separate companies. An inspector's job is to identify and document mold problems objectively. A remediation company's job is to fix them and profit from the work. When the same business does both, there's a natural incentive to find more mold or recommend costlier solutions than necessary. That conflict of interest is why industry standards keep these services separate. Pacific Home Inspections handles the inspection side in Everett, giving you an unbiased assessment without a financial stake in what gets repaired.

Everett's climate - with 81% relative humidity and significant rainfall - creates conditions where mold can develop, especially in older homes like the median house built in 1980. A standalone mold inspection typically costs $200-$600 in this region and gives you the facts you need to make smart decisions. Once you have that report, you can get quotes from licensed remediation contractors independently. Before you hire Pacific Home Inspections or any inspector, verify their credentials through Washington State's Department of Labor and Industries at lni.wa.gov, and ask whether they perform any remediation work themselves.
