Confirm the exact property location and scheduling with Kerwin.","sources":[{"label":"Service-area directory","url":"https://www.kerwininspections.com/service-areas/"}]},{"id":"visible-mold","question":"Do visible mold concerns always require sampling?","answer":"No. EPA says sampling is unnecessary in most cases when mold growth is visible. Sampling should have a defined purpose. There are no federal mold or mold-spore limits against which a sample establishes compliance, and a result is not a blanket health or mold-free certificate.","sources":[{"label":"EPA: Mold Testing or Sampling","url":"https://www.epa.gov/mold/mold-testing-or-sampling"},{"label":"When mold testing may not be needed","url":"https://www.kerwininspections.com/learning-center/when-mold-testing-may-not-be-needed/"}]},{"id":"scope","question":"Are testing, insurance forms and shared condo areas included automatically?","answer":"No inclusion should be assumed from a starting price. Confirm the inspection purpose, requested reports and separate testing scope. Condo prices use the unit's interior/living area; balconies, terraces, storage, shared amenities, building-wide work and access costs require separate scope confirmation. The $75 private amenity selections do not represent HOA shared-pool or shared-parking inspections.","sources":[{"label":"Scope and approved quote rules","url":"https://www.kerwininspections.com/pricing/"},{"label":"Full home versus four-point inspections","url":"https://www.kerwininspections.com/learning-center/four-point-vs-full-home-inspection/"}]},{"id":"request","question":"What information is required to request an inspection?","answer":"Name, phone number and email address are required.

Mold sampling is not automatically a test for all indoor-air pollutants.","sources":[{"label":"Indoor-air-quality service scope","url":"https://www.kerwininspections.com/services/indoor-air-quality/"}]},{"id":"credentials","question":"How should I verify the inspector's credentials?","answer":"Ask who will perform the work and verify that person's relevant current credentials with the appropriate official authority.
