Mold is more than just an eyesore. It can cause serious damage to your property and even greater harm to your health if left unchecked. At First Coast Contracting, we offer professional mold inspection services in Jacksonville and nearby areas, helping homeowners identify hidden mold issues early and take action before the problem grows worse.
With over 50 years of combined experience in restoration and home repair, we understand what it takes to find mold where it hides and offer solutions that last. Whether you’re dealing with recent water damage or simply want peace of mind, our team is here to help.
Living in a humid climate like Jacksonville increases the risk of mold growth inside homes. Frequent storms, high moisture levels, and older housing in areas like Riverside, Arlington, and San Marco can all contribute to hidden mold issues. In many cases, the signs aren’t obvious—musty odors, unexplained allergies, or subtle wall discoloration can be the only clues.
Getting a mold inspection in Jacksonville isn’t just about spotting surface growth. It’s about identifying water intrusion, pinpointing hidden mold behind walls or under floors, and preventing long-term damage to your home’s structure and indoor air quality.
At First Coast Contracting, we follow a clear and detailed process for every mold inspection in Jacksonville, St. Augustine, and nearby communities. Our focus is on providing accurate assessments, honest recommendations, and professional service from start to finish.
We start with a conversation to understand your concerns. Whether you’ve had recent water damage, noticed a strong odor, or simply want a routine inspection before buying or selling a home, we tailor the inspection to your needs.
Our trained professionals conduct a thorough visual examination of the property. We look for visible signs of mold, moisture stains, and areas prone to water intrusion—like bathrooms, kitchens, attics, crawl spaces, and around windows or roofing.
Using moisture meters and infrared imaging, we locate damp areas that may be hiding mold beneath the surface. This step is critical in Jacksonville homes, especially in flood-prone areas like Atlantic Beach or Orange Park, where moisture can linger long after visible signs disappear.
If mold is suspected but not visible, we may recommend air quality testing or surface sampling. These samples are sent to certified labs to identify mold types and concentrations. This helps us determine whether a problem exists and how serious it is.
After the inspection, we provide a written report that includes findings, images, and recommendations for cleanup or further action if needed. Our goal is to give you clear, honest information so you can make informed decisions.
Choosing the right mold inspection company in Jacksonville is important. You want professionals who know the local climate, have experience working with insurance, and understand what your home needs. Here’s how we stand out:

Mold doesn’t always show itself clearly. Here are common situations where a mold inspection is a smart move:
In areas like Mandarin and Southside, where homes often deal with moisture from nearby waterways or dense tree coverage, routine inspections can prevent bigger issues down the line.
The cost of a mold inspection depends on the size of the home and whether air or surface samples are needed. Most inspections fall in the $300–$600 range. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees.
Most inspections take between 1 to 2 hours. Larger homes or properties needing lab testing may take longer. You’ll receive a written report within a few business days after the inspection.
Yes, inspections are non-invasive and safe. If mold remediation is needed afterward, we’ll discuss next steps and whether temporary relocation is recommended based on the severity.
The inspection itself usually isn’t covered, but if mold is caused by a covered event—like a burst pipe or storm damage—the remediation and related repairs may be. We can assist with insurance documentation and communication if needed.
If mold is discovered, we’ll explain the extent of the issue and offer clear options for removal and repair. You’re never pressured into immediate work—we give you the information to decide what’s right for your home and family.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
