Mold Pro Chicago

A mold inspection and remediation are two different jobs that shouldn't be done by the same company. An inspector's job is to find mold and tell you what's there. A remediation contractor's job is to remove it. When one company does both, they have a reason to find more mold than actually exists, since more mold means a bigger job and higher fees. That's a conflict of interest. In Chicago, where homes average over 70% humidity and get plenty of rain each year, mold issues are real enough without inflated recommendations.

That's why it makes sense to call Mold Pro Chicago for an inspection first - to get an honest assessment of what you're dealing with. A standalone inspection typically costs between $200 and $600 in this region and gives you facts to work with. Once you know what you've got, you can hire a separate remediation contractor if needed. Before you book anything, verify that any contractor you hire holds IICRC S520 certification and carries general liability insurance, since Illinois doesn't require a specific mold remediation license.
