Your inspector shouldn't
profit from your problems.
The Problem
If the same company that finds mold also sells the fix, you're not getting an inspection. You're getting a sales pitch.
The Solution
I'm a nurse turned investigator. I do inspections — just inspections. Mold. Asbestos. Air quality. I don't profit from what I find.
Something feels off.
The musty smell that won't go away.
The headaches that started last spring.
The sniffles your kid can't seem to shake.
You've cleaned. You've aired it out. You've Googled your symptoms at 2am. You've wondered if you're
imagining it.
Sound familiar?

You're not imagining it.
Mold grows where you can't see it — behind walls, under floors, inside HVAC systems. And the companies that find it often have a $10,000 reason to make it sound worse than it is.
That's not a diagnosis. That's a sales pitch.
Here's the part no one talks about.
Most mold inspectors also run remediation companies. Same owner. Same truck. Hover over each point to see why it matters:
Inspection + Remediation
- Find mold, get paid to fix it Average remediation job: $3,000 - $25,000
- No mold? Explain that to the boss Their salary depends on finding problems
- Same business card, just flip it over Inspection company = Remediation company
- Diagnosis = sales pitch Every "finding" is a potential $10K+ upsell
Inspection Only
- Find mold, hand you a report That's it. Nothing to sell you.
- No mold? Hand you that report too Good news is still good news here
- Can't do remediation. Legally separate. Independent by design, not by accident
- Diagnosis = just a diagnosis You hire someone else to fix it
Would you trust a mechanic who only got paid if they found something wrong?
A surgeon who made commission on every operation?
A barber who charged you $15,000 after measuring your hair?
Didn't think so.
"I don't do remediation. I can't."
"I find mold. Then I hand you a report. Then I leave."
"My accountant calls it 'incompetent capitalism.' I call it sleep at night."
I'm Derrick.
I was an ER nurse for over ten years.
I learned to assess problems quickly, communicate clearly, and never sugarcoat bad news.
"Your leg is broken." "That's going to need stitches." "You probably shouldn't have tried to jump that."
I got tired of watching patients come in with mystery symptoms — while their homes went completely uninvestigated.
So I pivoted.
Now I find what others miss. And I can't sell you the fix, which means I have no reason to find problems that aren't there.
Your problem is my obsession.
Your solution is someone else's job.
"I've been told my bedside manner is excellent for someone who crawls under houses."
Here's exactly what happens.
Book
Visit my booking page. Enter your address and square footage.
You'll see the exact price — including any add-ons you want — before you commit.
No surprises. No sales pitch. No waiting for a callback.
Pick a time that works for you, and you're done.
Investigate
I come to your property with forensic-grade equipment.
Air samples. Surface samples. Moisture mapping. Thermal imaging. Visual inspection of every
space I can access.
Nothing gets missed. Nothing gets assumed.
Know
You get a documented report with lab-verified results.
Not opinions. Not guesses. Data you can trust, explained in plain English.
Then you decide what happens next. If you need remediation, I'll refer you to specialists I
don't work for and don't get paid by.
"Here's my secret process: I show up. I look at everything. I tell you the truth."
Revolutionary, I know.
What I actually do.
Mold Inspection & Testing
I find it. I measure it. I tell you exactly what it is. Then I leave — because I don't sell the fix.
Air samples. Surface samples. Lab-verified results. Full documentation you can use with any remediation company.
Property Inspection
For home buyers who want someone checking their investment who isn't trying to sell them the fix.
Thorough visual inspection. Moisture mapping. Thermal imaging. Honest assessment — nothing more, nothing less.
VA Home Inspection
I'm a veteran. I know VA loan requirements. I know what the VA looks for.
Inspection focused on VA-specific requirements. No wasted time on things that don't matter for your loan.
Air Quality Testing
Lab-certified. Documented. No guessing.
Indoor air sampling. Lab analysis. Clear report with actionable data — not opinions.
Your neighbor.
Not some out-of-state franchise.
My kids go to school with yours. I served this state in the National Guard. I worked Oklahoma hospitals during COVID. This is home.
This state raised me. The least I can do is tell you the truth about your house.
Why trust someone without a bunch of reviews?
That's a fair question. Here's my answer:
I don't have 500 reviews yet. I'm building this business from scratch.
Here's what that means for you:
- ZERO Incentive to find problems that don't exist
My reputation depends on getting this right.
- ZERO Legacy to protect
I'm not covering for past mistakes or defending a brand.
- ZERO Remediation contracts
I can't profit from your fear.
My entire future depends on telling you the truth.
That's not a marketing line. That's math.Common Questions
Answers you actually need — not marketing copy.
You likely need a mold inspection if you smell musty odors, see visible stains or discoloration, have unexplained allergy symptoms that worsen at home, or are buying a house in Oklahoma. Professional inspections find hidden mold behind walls and in HVAC systems that you can't see.

Read more →TrueSight charges $400 for most residential inspections in the OKC metro. That includes a thorough visual assessment, moisture meter readings, thermal imaging, and a detailed written report. Lab testing is optional and adds $50-150 per sample if needed.
I publish my prices because I can't upsell you later. There's no remediation to sell.
See full pricing →Free inspections come from companies that sell remediation. Their business model depends on finding problems — real or exaggerated. An independent paid inspection comes from someone who can't sell you the fix, has no financial stake in the outcome, and gives you an unbiased assessment.
That's why Oklahoma law requires separation between inspection and remediation.
Read more →A typical home inspection takes 1-2 hours. Larger homes or properties with multiple problem areas may take up to 3 hours. I check walls, ceilings, HVAC systems, crawlspaces, and anywhere moisture could be hiding.
Your report comes within 24-48 hours. Lab results (if samples are taken) arrive in 2-3 business days.
Read more →You get a detailed report explaining exactly what I found — in plain English, not technical jargon. If remediation is needed, I give you a list of contractors I don't work for and don't get paid by. Then I leave. That's it.
I'm the diagnosis. Someone else is the treatment. That separation is the whole point.
Read more →A conflict of interest happens when a mold inspector also sells remediation services. They profit from finding problems — which means they have incentive to find problems even when they don't exist, or exaggerate small issues into expensive projects.
I don't do remediation. I can't. My only job is to tell you what's actually there.
Read more →My promise to you.
I will never recommend remediation that I can perform.
I will never accept referral fees from companies who do.
I will never have a financial stake in finding problems that don't exist.
I will never tell you something is wrong when it isn't.
My only job is the truth. That's it.
"Here's what I want you to understand..."
You're not signing anything.
You're asking for the truth.
That's all this is. One inspection. One honest answer. And then you decide what to do with it — not me.
