In the state of Virginia there are very few licensed mold Inspectors who only provide mold inspection without offering costly remediation. The requirements for licensure include meeting a variety of standards, passing exams, passing a criminal background check, paying a licensing fee, maintaining a minimum of one million dollars of liability insurance, meeting CEU standards, and educational requirements. Field experience requirements are a criterion for being eligible to apply to become a licensed mold inspector. Along with these, the education minimum includes college courses in the fields of science, chemistry, biology, microbiology, building sciences, or engineering.

What does that mean and why does that matter? Working with a licensed mold inspector can help ensure that the person you hire to do mold testing for you is qualified to do the work.

While other mold inspectors in Virginia may be certified, that doesn’t ensure they have the qualifications for the highest standard of work. Mold Inspection certifications can be acquired by completing a 6-12 hour training course online.

Most mold remediation companies that offer mold inspections and testing in Virginia send out an uncertified hourly worker to perform inspections and testing to gather information for a potential future mold remediation project. Be wary of any company that provides mold inspections and mold remediation services. This is a conflict of interest.

Virginia does not require that mold inspectors and testers are licensed. Even so, I have met the standards to become a Licensed Mold Inspector. I’ve done this to provide my customers with confidence in my professional mold inspection and testing services in Virginia. The education and licensing standards I’ve met hold me to a standard that exceeds what is required in Virginia. In doing so, my goal is to remain at the tip of the spear for customer-based mold inspection services.
