About Chicago Mold Specialists: Chicago's Trusted Mold Remediation Experts
Our History & Mission
Founded in 2008, Chicago Mold Specialists began with a clear purpose: to protect Chicago residents and businesses from the health hazards and property damage caused by mold contamination. What started as a small family operation has grown into one of the city's most respected environmental remediation companies, while maintaining our core values of integrity, expertise, and exceptional customer service.
Our mission remains unchanged: to provide the most thorough, effective, and science-based mold remediation services in the Chicago metropolitan area, delivered with transparency, honesty, and a genuine commitment to our clients' wellbeing.
Chicago-Focused Expertise
Chicago Mold Specialists was established by Michael Rodriguez, a former construction professional who recognized the unique mold challenges faced by Chicago property owners. Our city's distinct seasonal climate changes, proximity to Lake Michigan, and diverse building inventory—from historic greystones to modern high-rises—create specific mold vulnerabilities that require specialized knowledge.
Our team has developed targeted solutions for Chicago's most common mold scenarios:
- Basement mold issues in historic buildings
- Ventilation challenges in vintage apartment buildings
- Mold problems in Chicago's iconic bungalows
- Humidity control in lakefront properties
- Seasonal moisture management for Chicago's extreme temperature fluctuations
This Chicago-specific expertise allows us to identify and address mold problems more effectively than national chains or general contractors who lack our intimate knowledge of local building characteristics.
Our Certified Team
Chicago Mold Specialists employs only the most qualified professionals in the industry. Our remediation technicians hold advanced certifications from respected organizations including:
- Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC)
- National Organization of Remediators and Mold Inspectors (NORMI)
- Indoor Air Quality Association (IAQA)
- American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC)
Our leadership team includes certified industrial hygienists, environmental health specialists, and building scientists who continuously evaluate and improve our remediation protocols based on the latest research and industry best practices.
Our Comprehensive Approach
What distinguishes Chicago Mold Specialists is our holistic approach to mold remediation. We recognize that effective mold removal requires more than simply cleaning visible growth—it demands thorough inspection, accurate testing, proper containment, complete remediation, and preventative measures to address underlying moisture issues.
Every project follows our proven five-step process:
- Comprehensive inspection and assessment
- Scientific testing and documentation
- Customized remediation planning
- Professional mold removal and treatment
- Preventative implementation and verification testing
This systematic approach ensures we deliver not just temporary relief but permanent solutions to mold problems throughout Chicago's homes and businesses.
