"Jason has been a pleasure to work with. He provided us with a detailed work plan on how he was going to eliminate the mold. He was very clear on what needed to be done and followed through to ensure everything was completed. He explained he would do a manual application of chemicals to the wood beams and two types of fogging to clear it up. He had air quality samples taken before and after the fogging and shared the results in a timely manner. He assured me if results did not guarantee the mold was eliminated, he would repeat all testing measures until resolved at no charge. Luckily the mold is gone. He is an honest and reliable businessman! I would highly recommend his services. He did an excellent job, is trustworthy and is reasonably priced. Howard"

David was reassuring and pleasant to work with. I would recommend his company, to anyone."

"I would be remiss if I didn't take the time to write a review for Green Home Solutions. I was in a total quandary when I spotted black mold on a baseboard in one of our bedrooms. I knew immediately that we had to have this checked out since my wife uses that room a lot when I snore. Not knowing who to call, I went on a neighborhood website and found the info for Green Home. I immediately called and was in touch with Autumn and then Jim within one hour. We set up a testing meeting and Jim was there at the exact time and was ready to go. After some pleasantries (and he is a friendly guy) he got to work checking out our entire home and that bedroom in particular. He used very high-tech equipment and pinpointed the spot with the mold. We determined that the window on that wall had rotted seals and was surely the source of water getting in. Jim left and within 2 days I had the complete report of what he found and a detailed report on the remediation. I quickly okayed the project and we had a date the next week for work to begin. Again, Jim and his assistant were right on time and set everything up to begin the remediation process. Let me add, at this point, that they set everything up to cause the least amount of mess and dust to any other part of the house. They got to work and within that day had the wall out and identified the mold and its source. They also found some mold in the attic and identified those sources as defective vents from bathrooms. Jimâ s friend Dean, a roofer, identified those problems and will be remediating those issues. After the entire process of removal was over I still had some questions and Jim came out again the next day with a new HEPA unit and helped me clean dust from the room. A week later his wife, Autumn, was out to do a final check of mold levels in the bedroom and attic. We are now in the clear (no pun intended). Being a senior citizen I deal with a lot of home repair people and Jim Blandi is one of the best, nicest and most professional company owners you will deal with. GHS gets my 100% endorsement. Jim Sims"

"I had Brett come to our home to test for mold because I’ve had an ongoing illness that Drs can never diagnose. He was so caring & did the testing within days of talking to him the 1st time. After the testing, he explained everything in detail and provided a list of things to improve the air quality in the home. I have never dealt with any type of contractor that was as thorough and really had our best interest at heart. He was honest, upfront with cost and I felt like I could totally trust him and his recommendations. If you are in need of mold or air quality testing, call Brett. You will be completely satisfied with his knowledge and care to make your home “healthy” again."

"I am extremely satisfied with the mold inspection and remediation services! The team conducted a thorough inspection of the entire property, used professional equipment to measure moisture levels, and clearly explained where the issues were located. After we agreed on the scope of work, they promptly began the remediation process: everything was done carefully, using safe products, and they provided a detailed report with before-and-after photos. The entire process was smooth, on schedule, and stress-free. I especially want to highlight their high level of professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to answer all my questions. Now the air in my home is fresh again, with no unpleasant odors. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for reliable mold specialists!"

FAQs for mold testing and remediation projects in Algonquin, IL

Some states require mold removal specialists to be licensed, while others require licensed mold testing companies to create remediation protocols that any contractor can carry out. You can use our state licensing tool to find requirements in your area. In either case, it’s imperative that you hire an experienced professional for mold removal to ensure the safety of your home and your family.

It’s possible to scrub mold off of visible surfaces yourself, but it’s not usually a good idea. Mold is not only a potential health risk, but it’s also difficult to treat in its entirety, especially because it can grow behind walls and in other hidden areas a DIYer might miss. Since mold is a serious and often pervasive issue, you should hire a professional that will remove all of the mold—including any that might be hidden—run industrial air scrubbers to remove airborne particles, and complete mold testing to ensure the underlying problem is solved.

The most effective way to remove mold includes testing affected surfaces and the air for spores, creating a protocol for removal, carrying out the steps within the protocol, running air scrubbers for the recommended amount of time, and then completing a post-remediation round of testing to confirm the issue is solved. Since this work is very involved and there are health risks if done incorrectly, you should always hire an experienced professional to handle mold removal.

The average cost for mold remediation is around $2,200, and most projects fall somewhere between $1,100 and $3,300. Your total will depend on many factors, including the surface area that is affected by mold, the extent of the issue, how much building material your professional needs to replace, whether or not testing is necessary for safety reasons, and existing indoor air quality.

Mold removal will take between one and five days in most cases, but severe mold issues can take several weeks to correct. Your timeline will depend on how much mold there is in your home, where the mold is located, and how much testing and aftercare is required. If you have mold behind your walls or you have an excessive amount of mold that requires removal and running air scrubbers for several days, you could be looking at over a week for the process to be completed.
