[What's in a remediation proposal](https://sbgenvironmental.com/mold-remediation/#proposal) ### How much does a mold inspection cost in NYC?

We tell you the price before we book, and quotes are free. [Ask for a quote](https://sbgenvironmental.com/request-inspection/) ### Do I need mold testing if I can already see mold? Often not. Visible mold needs to be removed and its moisture source fixed whatever kind it is, and the EPA says sampling is usually unnecessary when growth is visible. Air testing is most useful when you smell mold but can't see it, when you need evidence for a landlord, buyer or insurer, or to confirm a cleanup worked. [About air quality testing](https://sbgenvironmental.com/air-quality-testing/) ### Is mold removal the same as mold remediation or mold abatement? People use all three words for the same job. Remediation is the full process, not just scrubbing the surface: sealing off the area, filtering the air, removing what can't be saved, cleaning and drying what's left, and checking the work before anything is closed up. ### I rent in NYC and have mold in my apartment. Is my landlord responsible? In buildings with three or more apartments, NYC Local Law 55 requires the owner to investigate and fix mold and the moisture that causes it, using safe work practices. If your landlord doesn't act, you can report it to 311, and HPD may inspect and issue a violation. A report from a licensed assessor gives you a written record of what's there.
