Radon & Mold Professionals

Local Home Inspectors generally serve all of Collier and Lee Counties, some home inspectors travel from all over the state of Florida to perform inspections here.  We have never understood the need to hire a home inspector from Tampa or Miami to do an inspection in Southwest Florida when so many qualified and experienced Home Inspectors live in the Fort Myers and Naples area.

Will your Cape Coral home inspection cover the HVAC system, the roof, plumbing and electrical systems? Does the Cape Coral home inspector have errors and omissions insurance and provide a warranty with the residential or commercial inspection? Property inspections vary in scope from inspector to inspector in Cape Coral.  Your home inspector should hire a Certified Indoor Environmentalist for any mold inspection/testing concerns.  The mold inspector involved with any home inspection should have MOLD errors and omissions insurance as well as liability insurance

Homes with Chinese (reactive) drywall have been identified in the Cape Coral area.  Chinese Drywall problems are an environmental issue, consumers would be wise to hire an inspector with Errors & Omissions insurance for their assessment.  An Industrial Hygienist or a Certified Indoor Environmentalist can get E&O for Chinese Drywall inspections.  Home Inspector E&O does NOT cover Chinese Dywall inspections or mold assessment.

Radon & Mold Professionals has more insured board Certified Indoor Environmentalists (CIE) on staff than any other company in Southwest Florida.  office: (239) 498-4619

For home inspections in Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Estero, Bonita Springs and Naples, homebuyers should consider these local experienced professionals.   (all Florida home inspectors will be required to have a State license from the FL DBPR effective July 1, 2010)

Your Lee County, Cape Coral Home Inspection should be performed by a certified member of one of the national home inspector associations.  Your Cape Coral Mold Inspection or Mold Test should be performed by a mold specialist, AmIAQC Certified Indoor Environmentalist or a Certified Industrial Hygienist is qualified to determine if a home has a mold problem and determine what should be done to correct the problem.

Mold inspection / testing tips for the consumer - click here

Mold Inspections are often performed at the same time as the home inspection.  Consumers are best advised to hire a mold professional for mold assessment.  An  AmIAQC board Certified Indoor Environmentalist (CIE) is best qualified to determine if a home has a "mold problem".

Mold tests or sampling are used to determine the extent of a mold problem and are often "used by home inspectors to get preliminary information on whether a mold problem may exist and further investigation is warranted".
