Home Inspection:  Collier & Lee Counties,
  • Home Inspector should carry General Liability Insurance.   
  • Home Inspectors performing mold assessment should have "mold specific" Errors and Omissions Insurance.      (a requirement in the new Florida Law) 


Mold:  

  • Never decide if home has a mold problem based soley on just lab analysis.
  • Mold Report should include, scope of work, documentation of suspect conditions, source with photos and Infrared photos also recommendations based on accepted industry standards.

Licensed and Insured
One very important aspect of the new law the consumer should understand is that Mold Inspectors and Home Inspectors are two different professions, with separate licenses and regulations.
Florida Real Estate Slump
FLflag Good Luck

Over the last 12 months we have noticed familiar names disappearing from real estate rosters, home inspector lists.  About 140 home inspectors and thousands of Real Estate Agents have moved on to other things in Collier and Lee Counties. 

 

 We have been working a lot, our best year in fact, so we really haven't paid much attention.   We recently received an email from Closer Look Inspections that surprised us.  We wish Robert and the thousands of others affected by the recent real estate slump the best of luck in future endeavors.

Doug Wall, John Cosgrove, Janet Wall

 

"Good Morning,

    Unfortunately, this is a sad announcement.  After 10 years, I am shutting down Closer Look permanently.  Due to the current Real Estate Market, I an unable to provide for my family with the home inspection, wind certification business. 

    I want to Thank you all for using my services, & it has been my sincere honor working with each & every one of you.  I have the utmost respect for the way you all conduct yourselves in this profession.  I have learned quite a bit from each of you & have tried to conduct myself in a manner to compliment the professionalism that each of you provide to your clients.  I know that they are the most important person to you .."

Sincerely,

    Robert

Lab report only?
femtotech  
 
    You should know this is used to determine if you need a mold inspection not remediation.
 
 
 

Pro Lab website states:

"The Z5 Sampling Cassette is a cost effective, first-line mold screening tool that efficiently and reliably collects mold."

"... used by home inspectors to get preliminary information on whether a mold problem may exist and further investigation is warranted."

"PRO-LAB/SSPTM Inc. is not able to make and does not make a determination as to the environmental soundness, safety or health of a property from only the samples sent to their laboratory for analysis."
__________________________________________________________
 
Mold report should identify source and make recommendations for remediation based on "accepted industry standards" not best guess.
Infrared Thermal Imaging Camera
moisture 1 Mold Inspections
Performing a mold inspection without an infrared camera is a mistake.
Sooner or later something will be missed. You just can not see everything that is wet with the naked eye.
Cameras are expensive, the professional mold inspector will have an infrared camera.
Mold needs moisture to grow, (food & water).
