Mold
 

All parties involved with mold need to have and show proof of  proper insurance prior to being licensed. This would include but is not limited to Workers Comp, Auto, General Liability, Errors and Omission and Pollution Liability insurance.

From an ethical standpoint the company doing the inspection should not do the remediation . The remediation company should not be involved in any way with the inspection or clearence company.

Mold inspection or remediation companies should not be allowed to sell any type of equipment to the consumer other than their service. Selling of filters, air fresheners,

Overall cost per job will increase due to required courses, licensing, insurance, paper work, record keeping and testing etc. that is needed.
