SERVPRO of North Central Tazewell County, Peoria, Galesburg and Macomb

Many Bloomington homeowners make the mistake of hiring the first contractor who answers the phone for mold work, only to discover later that they lack proper credentials or insurance. Since Illinois doesn't require a specific mold remediation license, it's on you to verify that any contractor holds IICRC S520 certification and general liability insurance. SERVPRO of North Central Tazewell County, Peoria, Galesburg and Macomb is worth considering, especially given that Bloomington's climate - with 69% relative humidity and 40 inches of rain annually - creates ideal conditions for mold growth in homes.

Given that the median home in Bloomington was built in 1981, older houses are particularly vulnerable to moisture problems. Before you hire anyone, including SERVPRO of North Central Tazewell County, Peoria, Galesburg and Macomb, ask to see proof of their certifications and insurance coverage. A typical remediation project in this area runs between $1,500 and $4,650, so getting clear answers upfront will help you avoid surprises down the road.
