Mold is everywhere, but elevated levels in your property can cause serious health problems. Even if the mold is non-toxic, it still needs to be removed because the mold spores will still be present. If your property has a mold problem we have the knowledge and instrumentation to find it.

"Still waiting on the lab results but the inspector was very polite,informative , honest and thorough."

At ProCare Restoration, we pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service at an unbeatable price. Our desire to quickly assist our clients and make their restoration services as painless as possible makes us one of the most reputable restoration companies in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs.

"They were prompt in showing up, but did not have enough equipment at first. They first secured the job and then slowly brought equipment from other jobs. The staff were very hardworking and experienced - no issues there. However, after sales support was lacking. For example they left their dumpster in my driveway for a week and could not schedule a pickup until and i called and called. They did not send me the paperwork after the work was done. Nor was there any follow up calls or emails to see how everything went. They are always on the hunt for the next job and there isn't time to make sure the customer is satisfied."

Toxicity and mold removals FAQs

Mold remediation can last indefinitely if you eliminate the underlying moisture problem that caused mold growth. That’s why it’s essential to repair leaks, reduce humidity, and remove water-damaged materials to prevent mold from returning to your home. Be sure to keep up with regular maintenance and inspections to help prevent future mold growth.

It's generally not recommended to stay home during mold remediation, especially if the infestation is extensive. Mold spores can become airborne during removal, posing health risks. It's best to relocate temporarily while professionals remove the mold and restore your home. Some contractors may require occupants to vacate to ensure safety and efficiency.

Mold can return after remediation if the underlying moisture problem isn't fully resolved. To prevent mold from coming back, it's essential to identify and repair the source of moisture, such as leaks, high humidity, or poor ventilation. Without addressing these issues, mold spores can find the damp environment they need to grow again. Ensuring that your home remains dry and well-ventilated is key to preventing future mold growth after remediation.

Unfortunately, exposure to mold can lead to various health effects, especially in individuals with allergies, asthma, or weakened immune systems. Common symptoms include nasal congestion, throat irritation, coughing, wheezing, eye irritation, and skin rash. Some molds produce mycotoxins, which can cause more serious health issues like respiratory infections or neurological problems. Prolonged exposure to toxic molds may even contribute to severe conditions such as lung disease. It's important to address mold problems promptly to protect your health and well-being.
