ServiceMaster Cleaning and Restoration by RBD holds a 4.7-star rating across 66 Google reviews in Yakima. Before you hire them or any mold inspector, understand that Yakima's dry climate (averaging just 8 inches of rain yearly) doesn't mean you're immune to mold problems, especially in older homes like the median house built in 1971. A standalone mold inspection typically costs $200-$600 in this region, so get quotes from multiple inspectors to compare pricing and services.

Here's the key thing to watch for: if the same company both inspects for mold and performs the remediation work, they have a financial incentive to find problems, which creates a conflict of interest. Instead, consider hiring an independent inspector first, then getting separate bids from remediation contractors if needed. Before signing any contract in Yakima, verify that any remediation contractor holds a valid contractor registration with Washington State's Department of Labor and Industries by checking lni.wa.gov.
