Pop quiz: Do you know THE most essential thing you can look for in a quality mold remediator in Washington DC?
It’s not certification. Certification is critical, but it’s not THE most critical.
It’s not price. Naturally, you want the most value for your money. But there is something more important than cost.
And it’s not even the materials they use or the quality of work they provide.
So… what IS the #1 thing to look for in a mold remediator?
Trustworthiness. Plain and simple.
If the mold remediator is trustworthy, you don’t have to worry about whether they’re certified, using the best materials, or giving you the right price. An honest, trustworthy remediator is automatically going to do what’s in your best interests. That means he’s going to use the best materials, perform high-quality work, and give you a fair price.
That makes the million-dollar question this: How do you know if you can trust a mold remediation company?
It essentially boils down to three things:
First, take a look at the remediator’s reviews, case studies, and references. Are their customers saying good things about them? Do they have in-depth examples of how they handled jobs the right way? These are critical questions to ask.
If they have a past customer list you can contact, that’s a bonus. It means they’ve got nothing to hide and WANT you to speak with homeowners who have hired them.
Second, talk to independent mold testers in Washington DC. They are familiar with the work of remediators in the area and will give you an honest assessment of whom to hire.
Naturally, you’re going to run into the same conundrum with testers that you are with remediators: Who can you TRUST? It comes down to the same things, really: track record, reputation, and proof of quality. Fortunately, the stakes are lower in this instance since you’re simply ASKING the tester for their recommendation—not hiring them.
Third—and this is an important one—go with your gut. If you’re meeting with a remediator and you feel something is “off” about them, you’re probably right. That’s the great thing about instinct—it’s always watching your back.
Some ways to know if a mold remediator isn’t “shooting straight” include the following:
If a mold remediator is guilty of any of these, it’s a red flag that their trustworthiness is questionable.
