Western States Home Inspections

Western States Home Inspections holds a 5-star rating across 403 Google reviews, which stands out for San Tan Valley homeowners dealing with the region's unique climate challenges. With an average relative humidity of just 35% and only 8 inches of annual rainfall, mold problems are less common here than in wetter areas, yet the median home age of 2006 means many properties are old enough to have underlying moisture issues that inspectors should catch. That consistent rating suggests the company has earned trust in your community, though you'll want to verify their specific experience with the older homes that dominate your area.

Before you hire, know that Western States Home Inspections is listed as a mold inspector. However, industry standards flag a potential conflict of interest when inspectors also perform remediation work - they may have financial incentive to recommend more extensive (and expensive) fixes than necessary. Arizona requires any mold remediation contractor to hold a valid ROC (Registrar of Contractors) license. Check azroc.gov directly to verify their current license status before signing any agreement. A standalone mold inspection in San Tan Valley typically costs $200 to $600, so get that estimate upfront.
