The honest answer is that it depends on the specifics. Compare the written scope first, then the price. The answer can shift with the Rochester market, so check locally.
Is Mold Testing cheaper in smaller cities?
Often, but not always. Smaller markets can carry a travel or availability premium that offsets a lower local rate, so it is worth checking a nearby city before assuming the lowest published figure applies to you. It is worth testing that against a couple of quotes in Rochester.
How many quotes should I get for mold testing?
Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. Local providers in Rochester can confirm how that applies to your area.
