What makes it cost more
- More samples. Each extra room or area tested adds a lab fee.
- Bigger homes and homes with both a basement and a crawl space take longer.
- Hard-to-reach areas like tight crawl spaces and attics.
- Rush lab results, which some labs charge extra for.
How to avoid paying for tests you do not need
- If you can see the mold and know the cause, you may not need lab tests at all. The Washington State Department of Health says sampling is usually not needed when you can see or smell mold.
- Ask the inspector how many samples they recommend and why.
- Check whether the lab fee and the written report are included in the quoted price.
- Be wary of a "free" inspection from a company that sells removal. It is paid for by the removal job it recommends.
What about mold removal costs?
Removal is quoted per job and depends on the size of the area, where it is and what must be replaced. See mold removal in Spokane for what drives the price, and get an inspection first so every removal quote is for the same job.

Common questions
How much does a mold inspection cost in Spokane?
Most Spokane mold inspections with lab testing cost about $300 to $600. Published local prices we checked in October 2026 start at around $425 for a standard inspection with one indoor air sample, an outdoor comparison sample and lab fees, with each extra sample about $100, so a typical three-sample job is about $525. A visual inspection without lab samples costs less. Always ask whether the lab fee and the written report are included.
Does homeowners insurance cover mold removal?
Sometimes. Many policies cover mold caused by a sudden covered event, such as a burst pipe, but exclude mold from slow leaks, flooding or poor upkeep. Check your policy or ask your insurer before work starts, and keep photos and the inspection report.
