Sego Inspections Inc

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs that shouldn't be done by the same company. During an inspection, a professional identifies whether mold exists, where it's located, and what's causing it. Remediation is the actual removal and treatment. When one company does both, they have a financial incentive to recommend expensive fixes whether you truly need them or not. That's why industry standards say these services should stay separate - so you get honest findings, not a sales pitch.

Bloomington's climate - with its humidity and rainfall - creates conditions where mold can take hold, especially in homes like the median one built in 1981. Sego Inspections Inc can give you an objective assessment of what's happening in your house. A standalone mold inspection typically costs between $200 and $600 in this region. If remediation becomes necessary, you'll want to hire a separate contractor. Before you book anyone for the job, verify they hold IICRC S520 certification and current general liability insurance, since Illinois doesn't require a specific mold remediation license.
