Reviews

What Des Plaines, IL Clients Say About Our Mold Inspection

★★★★★
The thermal imaging during our Des Plaines inspection found moisture behind a wall that looked completely dry to the eye. Turned out there was a slow roof leak feeding a significant mold colony in the wall cavity. The written report from Cheap Mold Removal was exactly what our real estate attorney needed.
Sandra L.
Homebuyer, Des Plaines
★★★★★
Post-remediation clearance inspection after a contractor told us the mold was "all taken care of." Cheap Mold Removal's independent air sampling showed spore counts were still elevated in one zone. That report protected us from accepting work that wasn't complete.
James P.
Landlord, Des Plaines, IL
★★★★★
Our school district required a certified air quality inspection after a water intrusion event. Cheap Mold Removal produced the exact type of report our district's health officer required — zone-by-zone air sample data, moisture readings, and inspector certifications included. Inspection was completed quickly and the report was ready before our board meeting deadline.

FAQ

What Des Plaines Clients Ask Before Booking

A Mold Inspection is the broader process: a certified inspector physically assesses the property using thermal imaging, moisture meters, and visual inspection to identify risk areas, then collects air and/or surface samples for lab analysis. The resulting written report covers findings across the whole property. Mold testing refers specifically to the sampling and lab analysis component. A Mold Inspection includes testing as part of a comprehensive assessment.
The on-site inspection typically takes 60–90 minutes for a standard residential property in Des Plaines. Larger homes, multi-family properties, or commercial spaces take longer proportionally. Air sample results from the accredited lab typically return within 24–48 hours, after which your written report is compiled and delivered.
Our written inspection report gives you the data: species identified, concentration relative to outdoor baseline, and locations of moisture and visible growth. We translate findings into plain-language recommendations. For health-related concerns, we recommend sharing the report with your primary care physician alongside our findings.
Pre-purchase mold inspections in Des Plaines have saved our clients significant money. We've found undisclosed crawl space mold, wall cavity infestations masked by fresh paint, and HVAC systems with Aspergillus growth — all in properties where the standard home inspection found nothing actionable.
Our Des Plaines inspectors arrive with a FLIR thermal imaging camera, calibrated pin and pinless moisture meters, relative humidity/temperature probe, spore trap cassette air sampling pump with cassettes, surface sampling swabs and tape lifts if warranted, borescope camera for cavity inspection, and personal protective equipment. Every piece of equipment is calibrated and documented.
