"Working with Advantaclean on mold remediation project was a nice experience. We noticed mold in patches in our bathroom, Advantaclean they worked on this mold remediation project and the end result, mold free bathroom. After they completed their work also did post test and result came negative. The crew worked on this project are very professional and they did the job nicely. I would highly recommend using them for any mold remediation needs. Thanks to JT, Kaitlyn, Ian and the crew who worked on this project."

"I had Brett come to our home to test for mold because I’ve had an ongoing illness that Drs can never diagnose. He was so caring & did the testing within days of talking to him the 1st time. After the testing, he explained everything in detail and provided a list of things to improve the air quality in the home. I have never dealt with any type of contractor that was as thorough and really had our best interest at heart. He was honest, upfront with cost and I felt like I could totally trust him and his recommendations. If you are in need of mold or air quality testing, call Brett. You will be completely satisfied with his knowledge and care to make your home “healthy” again."

"The Works Air Care and Restoration cleaned out our air ducts and sprayed mildecide to prevent mold growing in our air system. They also fixed our chimney and installed a cap so no unwanted critters could make their way into the house. They were very kind, courteous and quick."

"Our condominium was affected by a long standing leakage, which did not become apparent until after what, we surmised, may have taken several months in the making: As the result of a defect in our 30 year old decaying pipe system. After completing the necessary drying-out process of the flood--followed by an adverse mold analysis report and the warehousing of all our personal belongings--, our personal claims-adjuster referred us to Mr. Tawakali of Chicago Mold Service, Restoration and Construction Services, in order to execute the required demolishing, dismantling and remediation. From the first contact, Mr. Tawakali gave us essentially a master class of what was involved in fully addressing the remediation issues as detailed in the mold analysis report: Four out of six interior areas had tested positive for "black mold" at moisture levels of 95%; 84%; 74% and 46% --versus 29% in the exterior--, when only 17% was acceptable for interior habitation. The kitchen sink was ground zero of the leak, which seeped and permeated through-out floors and walls. The result was the development of an extensive amount of active black mold spores in walls, floors as well as in the air. It took two concentrated efforts in cleaning to address the problem, the first of which took five days for dismantling cabinets, walls and floors in a radius of 5600 cubic feet. After a follow-up test, the second effort took an additional 3 days, because black mold spores were still detectable, and further cleaning had to be undertaken to clean and extract the air out of the apartment until it tested zero spores of the black mold: in all interior areas of concern such as rooms as well as closets. Thanks to the diligence and seriousness of Mr. Tawakaliâ s staff at the end-results were impeccably professional. We concur with our well-listed, independent mold-technician, who complimented them for their superb caliber of execution, and so we strongly recommend Chicago Mold Service."

"Very good and he also advised me that some dry wall had mold on it and he removed that free of charge. I would recommend this person to anyone that needs his service. I also like the fact that it is family owned and he is training his boys to follow him and learn the trade."

FAQs for mold & toxic material test projects in Cortland, 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.
