At the risk of opening up a can of worms here, can those that do mold inspections tell me what purpose (other than making money) do the mold tests serve? I can see a clearance test after remediation of a problem but I can't see the point of testing if you see mold or the need of testing if you don't see mold. Please enlighten me.
Please guys (Jerry P. and others that have already voiced their opinion) leave room for some honest answers here before condemning the very idea. I really am interested in the mindset behind those who test. I have met several inspectors that do mold and don't think that all of them are greedy SOB's just trying to get money from their customers. It is apparent from the poll results that at least some of the inspectors that frequent this board do mold and I am truly interested in the reasons.
