Guys Who Clean

A mold inspection and mold remediation are two different jobs, and here's why that distinction matters: an inspector's job is to find the problem objectively, while a remediation company's job is to fix it. When the same business does both, they have a financial incentive to recommend expensive work, even if it isn't necessary. That's a conflict of interest. In Champaign, where homes built around 1985 can develop moisture issues over time, getting an independent inspection first protects you. A standalone mold inspection typically costs $200-$600 in this region and gives you unbiased information before you decide on any repairs.

If you're considering Guys Who Clean for a mold inspection in Champaign, verify their credentials independently. Illinois doesn't require a specific mold remediation license, so look for IICRC S520 certification and current general liability insurance - these show they take the work seriously. Before you sign anything, ask whether they perform both inspections and remediation, and if they do, clarify that you want an inspection-only report with no recommendation for their own repair services.
