"I contacted them yesterday for Mold Remediation services. I would recommend reaching out to this company for this type of service. I spoke to the owner and he was kind enough to talk me through my problem over the phone. He was completely honest up front and told me how to solve this issue on my own without spending any money. The other 2 companies I called for this service wanted to charge me a large amount upfront and I would have ended up wasting a lot of money if I hadn’t spoke to the owner of Illinois Mold Eradicator. It’s hard to find honest people now a days, I would highly recommend anyone to use this company as their first choice!"
"Brian with Southside mold and testing is one of the best companies I have ever experienced. Discovering mold in your home for us was very unsettling and scary. From the first phone call with Brian to the mold remedy completion, we received service excellence and piece of mind. Brian is very talented, knowledgeable and professional. He explained in detail the what, how and why about the project in its entirety. Even with the price being great, I am still not one to hire service without having at least two or three professional quotes and opinions but this Company and Brian made it apparent to look no further. Thank you Southside Mold and testing and THANK YOU BRIAN!!"
"I had a water heater leak that contaminated a 4x5 room with mold. RMS came over and thoroughly explained what they can do to fix it. They were punctual and also informative while they worked which made my wife comfortable with their work. The mold is gone and my family is safe. I would hire them again if ever needed."
"This company is hands down one of the best company’s we’ve ever worked with. Selling our house, mold was discovered and Patrick and his crew handled it with ease. From the initial phone call to the projects, end, we felt extremely confident working with Patrick. He was knowledgeable and thoroughly explained the step by step process. The day of remediation, his crew was prompt and left the work area extremely clean. The company’s’ 5 year transferrable warranty is piece of mind and not standard in the industry. We highly recommend Mold Removal Solutions!"

"Kevin did a great job. He came out quick (same day Saturday), completed a thorough assessment, provided excellent advice (not only mold, but other house maintenance issues) and offered a competitive price. I would refer Kevin to anyone."
"GCPRO were the most professional and technology-equipped of all the estimators who came to look at this project. They had laser measures, tools for reading how wet the drywall was, infrared cameras to look at the water saturation... It was impressive! They also were very competitive in pricing. I chose them for those reasons and because they were start-to-finish, handling the remediation and removal efforts all the way through to reconstruction and finishing efforts. The technology carried through those efforts as well, with 3D scanning to measure space and material requirements. The two carpenters who worked on putting everything back together (and actually beyond what was originally there, Janusz and Yaroslav, were extremely professional, polite, detail-oriented and neat. I am astounded by the quality of their craftsmanship. I cannot recommend GCPRO enough!"
Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts
Mold grows quickly. It typically begins to grow on drywall about 24 hours after exposure to moisture or humidity. Drywall is a porous material, which makes it particularly hospitable to mold growth.
While mold growth begins after just a day or so, it can take a few weeks before the evidence becomes visible. Mold spores will typically appear on the drywall surface within three weeks of growth starting.
Yes, outside leaks can easily cause damage to your home if you don’t have waterproofing measures in place. Regularly check your property for signs of a leak, ensure your home’s landscaping is at least at a 5% slope, your basement windows are sealed, and you have an aligned gutter system to catch rainwater.
Dog vomit slime mold is not toxic to humans, plants or pets. However, it can act as an allergen to people with allergies. Dog vomit slime mold is considered more of a cosmetic nuisance. However, it is beneficial to its ecosystem as it helps break down organic matter, releasing nutrients for plants.
Underfloor insulation alone will not cause moisture and mold, but improper installation can. Although the purpose is to seal any drafts, your subfloor still needs ventilation. If you seal the area too tightly and prevent all airflow, this can cause moisture to get trapped. This moisture eventually leads to mold and—if your floors are wood—rotting.
Telling the difference between poisonous and nonpoisonous mushrooms is difficult even for trained mushroom experts and biologists! However, nature provides some red flags for poisonous mushrooms. Assume that any mushroom with a red cap or stem is poisonous. You should also assume mushrooms with white gills, rings, skirts, or a sack-like base are poisonous.
