"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!"

"Overall was good for what the service is. The technician was a postal worker and home inspector. So mold test company appears to be brokers. Their pricing was competitive from other quotes I received but I honestly think it was pricey for time spent and what they do. But like I said the price was pretty standard from the companies I called, in my opinion. But the technician was attentive and knowledgeable, and friendly."

"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

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.

Both mildew and mold come from fungi. One of the main differences is that mildew’s texture is dry and powdery, whereas mold is fuzzy and slimy. In addition, mildew isn’t very thick, while mold looks three-dimensional. Also, mildew is typically light in color, whereas mold comes in various shades, including green and black.

If you need mold remediation, you’re probably looking at a bill of a couple thousand dollars or more. Sometimes, though, your homeowner’s insurance policy may cover some or all of the costs of the remediation. If the black mold forms because of a covered event, such as a storm that damages your roof, and causes leaking or flooding in the basement, it’s possible the policy also covers mold remediation. It never hurts to ask your insurance company if it will cover the cost of black mold remediation.

Although fiberglass dust is generally not considered toxic, inhaling excessive amounts of it can lead to health risks. Irritation to the respiratory system, eyes, and skin are common effects of fiberglass particle inhalation. While short-term exposure to the dust may only cause temporary discomfort, long-term or chronic exposure can lead to more severe respiratory problems.

Proper safety measures, such as wearing appropriate protective equipment, including masks and goggles, should be observed when handling or working with fiberglass materials to minimize health risks. It is important to note that, unlike asbestos, fiberglass is not associated with life-threatening illnesses.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.
