"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!"

"My husband and I are writing to communicate to you a very positive interaction with Brian. His professional approach to mold remediation, which was mandatory in the conduction of the sale of our home, displayed a knowledgeable background, as he also educated my husband and myself, as to the mold clean-out process. His service was stellar!?"

"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!"

"I had an ice dam in my gutter which caused extensive damage in my home. Not only did dry wall and insulation need to be replaced, but almost all the flooring on the main floor, with the exception of the bathroom. GCPro came out the night the water starting leaking and did some initial remedial work. The next morning they were there, on time, and did extensive tear down and started the drying out process. Once all that was done, they then did all the repairs. The were always on time and treated both myself and my home with respect. They cleaned up after themselves every day as best they could considering the condition of things! They were always extremely courteous and friendly. I would use them again in a heart beat and would recommend them to anyone needing repairs or wanting remodeling done. Paula R. Palatine, IL"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

There are two types of mold symptoms in the home: visible mold and unexplained health issues. If you have allergies out-of-season, brain fog with no other obvious cause, constant congestion, and other such symptoms, you may have a mold problem. Oftentimes you can smell mold in your home, even if you can’t see it. 

Bathroom mold tends to reappear due to the persistent presence of moisture and humidity, creating the ideal conditions for its growth. Since bathrooms are inherently humid environments, without proper ventilation, moisture accumulates on surfaces, providing a continuous food source for mold spores. Mold spores are present in the air and settle on damp surfaces to start growing rapidly. Additionally, if the underlying causes of mold, such as plumbing leaks or inadequate sealing, are not addressed, mold will return even after removal. To avoid recurring issues, addressing the root cause by improving ventilation, fixing leaks, and maintaining a dry bathroom environment through regular cleaning and maintenance is essential.

Neglecting mold growth on wood can result in various issues that deteriorate its appearance and jeopardize its structural stability. The mold's ability to multiply and expand can disintegrate the fibers of the wood, weakening it further. In addition, the allergenic spores and mycotoxins released by mold can pose health hazards through inhalation or contact. Ignoring the mold's presence allows it to thrive, increasing the likelihood of spreading to other surfaces and requiring extensive and expensive measures to control in the future. Addressing mold on wood promptly is crucial to preserving its condition and safeguarding the health of those around it.

Just because you find mold in your home does not mean you need to pursue professional remediation services. You can often clean small amounts of surface mold, such as in bathrooms or on windowsills, using household products. However, extensive mold growth, persistent odors, or mold caused by water damage require professional remediation. A good rule of thumb is to hire a pro when the mold is in an area larger than 10 square feet, poses health risks, or affects the structural integrity of your home.

Standard wood stains often contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which the EPA states can irritate those exposed to their odor. Inhaling the fumes can pose health risks to humans. Prolonged exposure to VOCs from wood stains can lead to wood stain poisoning, manifesting in symptoms such as a burning sensation, blurred vision, and even collapse. Taking precautions when using these products is crucial to minimize the risk of adverse health effects.
