Significant presence of MOLD in a home or office can be a major challenge health wise and financially.

If removal warrants hiring a professional MOLD REMEDIATION CONTRACTOR the following are words of wisdom to be a wise and informed consumer. 

• Insist on receiving a HARD COPY of the contractor’s CERTIFICATION proving they are trained to follow the standards and guidelines of this industry.

• Insist on receiving HARD COPY of the contractor’s GENERAL PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY INSURANCE.

• Ask that you be named specifically as an “ALSO INSURED” on their insurance policy.

• Ask for a  HARD COPY of this Certificate of Insurance directly from their insurance company and not just a copy from their office.

• The contractor’s COVERAGE should be ADEQUATE enough to cover the cost of your home or affected area of the commercial property.

• The most prudent and conscientious mold remediators also carry POLLUTION INSURANCE specific to remediation/removal.

• Due diligence BEFORE HIRING a contractor can ultimately save a consumer unwanted stress, regrets and liability later.
