"Is this business even open any more? I've tried calling several times and the phone rings twice and then there is silence. There is an option to contact them on their website, but when I leave my info and click submit, nothing happens. Can anyone recommend another service similar to this one? The mold smell is coming out of my hvac ducts again. I'm in the Joliet area ."

"I called to have some mold testing done on a couple of spots on our walls after finding damage from a roof leak in our home. Brett and his team did a fantastic job. They not only took wall board samples to test in the lab, but suggested air quality testing in several rooms. The wall boards had came back negative, but the air tests pointed us to an old humidifier panel being the source of my issue as I had developed an irritating cough in the months prior to calling LaFrance Environmental. I suggest you call and don’t put it off another day. Thank you Brett. I can breathe easy again. "

"Overall was good for what the service is. The technician was a postal worker and home inspector. So mold test company appears to be brokers. Their pricing was competitive from other quotes I received but I honestly think it was pricey for time spent and what they do. But like I said the price was pretty standard from the companies I called, in my opinion. But the technician was attentive and knowledgeable, and friendly."

"A couple months late with this review but JT was great and he’ll be my first call if I ever have any mold issues again. I had a bunch of vintage items that I didn’t realize had mold and when I tried to clean them, I made it worse. I got rid of them but was worried mold had spread in the air. JT did a walk through & recommended air testing. He gave lots of explanation about mold, treatments, etc so I thoroughly understood my situation and air test results in context. No sales pressure, just a straightforward, knowledgeable guy. Collected the outside air sample (the baseline for comparison) during a polar vortex and hustled to make the last Fedex pickup on Friday night so test results would come back ASAP. Has an independent lab do the analysis of air samples and report, which is good practice. Plus, we are getting bonus mileage out of the air purifiers we got now that it’s allergy season. Good guy, good communication, good job!"

"I recently had Bernhardt Restoration handle mold remediation in my home, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, the experience was outstanding. The remediation specialists who came out were true professionals—they arrived on time, worked efficiently, and demonstrated a level of craftsmanship that is rare to find these days. Their workmanship was meticulous, and it gave me complete peace of mind knowing the job was done right. Beyond just solving the problem, they showed respect for my home and my time, which made the entire process seamless. I will absolutely use Bernhardt Restoration again in the future and have no hesitation recommending them to anyone in need of mold remediation or bathroom restoration work. They are reliable, professional, and deliver results of the highest quality."

"I highly recommend this company. Very professional, friendly, honest and responsive. They answered all of my questions and were happy to share their environmental knowledge beyond the scope of work I hired them for. The work performed, even though it required removing part of the drywall in order to treat the mold, was done quickly and without leaving any mess behind. These are good people delivering good service. I hope I won't need to have a reason to hire this company in the future,, but if I will have a mold issue in my house again, I will call these guys back."

FAQs for mold & toxic material test projects in West Chicago, IL

Some companies offer a no‑cost phone or video consultation that screens for red flags. If the discussion points to a real issue, the pro will recommend a paid on‑site inspection. The complimentary call clarifies whether you need full testing, but it isn’t a substitute for samples, lab work, or a written report. Always confirm what the free service covers before you schedule.

A standard inspection, which includes basic air and surface samples, takes an average of two hours. If the pro needs to probe hidden spaces, such as wall cavities or ductwork, plan on up to six hours. Extra time allows the inspector to reach tight areas, collect additional samples, and document findings. Lab analysis is a separate process and often adds several business days to the overall timeframe before you receive the full report.

Mold thrives where moisture lingers and air flow is poor. Common hotspots include bathroom walls, kitchen backsplashes, window sills, HVAC vents, fireplaces, crawl spaces, and enclosed attics. Check these areas regularly—especially after leaks or high‑humidity weather—to catch growth early and avoid costly repairs.

Unchecked mold can knock 20% to 37% off a home’s market value because buyers worry about hidden damage and health risks. Even after remediation, visible staining or a history of major moisture issues can still lower offers and prolong the time on the market. Addressing mold quickly protects both your property’s structural integrity and its resale appeal.
