Over the years we’ve been in business, we’ve found that many property owners aren’t educated about mold. We believe that’s why so many people suffer extensive damages and health effects; therefore, we feel it’s important to take the time to provide you with important information about mold and its dangers. On our website, you’ll find valuable information, but if you still have questions after browsing our site, you can always contact us directly and we’ll be more than happy to assist you.

Is Mold Common in Chicago?

Yes, mold is extremely common in Chicago. Each year, countless property owners experience the devastation that indoor mold growth can cause. Why is it mold so common in the Windy City? – Because it thrives in moist locations. Chicago sits on the shores of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River runs through the city. Add to that the fact that humidity levels can be high and large amounts of precipitation usually fall each year and Chicago is the ideal location for mold growth.

Where does Mold Grow in Chicago?

Mold is a fungus and it feeds on fibrous materials. Fibrous materials refer to anything that contains fibers, which includes virtually everything in your home or business. With that said, mold can grow on practically any surface, but some of the most common places we see mold growth include:
• Walls
• Ceilings
• Floors
• Basements
• Attics
• Foundations
• Insulation
• Underneath wallpaper
• Behind appliances
• Around plumbing fixtures
• Bathrooms
• Kitchens
• Laundry rooms
• HVAC vents
Essentially, any place where moisture is present in your Chicago property, mold can grow.

Why is Mold Dangerous?

In nature, mold usually isn’t dangerous; in fact, it’s helpful. That’s because it breaks down dead and decaying organic matter, such as plants and animals. However, it’s these properties of mold that make it dangerous indoors. When mold starts growing inside, it can cause extensive property damage. It cracks walls, peels paint, rots wood, and corrodes metal. As it continues to feed and spread, it can damage the entire structural integrity of your property, and could eventually cause walls, ceilings, and floors to collapse. Indoor mold growth can also be hazardous to your health. It reproduces by releasing spores into the air, and depending on the variety (there are more than 30 known types of mold), these spores can be toxic. Exposure to toxic mold spores can cause a number of adverse reactions, including:
• Chronic respiratory problems
• Wheezing
• Coughing
• Sore throat
• Itchy, watery eyes
• Irritated skin
• Headaches
• Nosebleeds
• Fatigue
It’s because mold can cause such extensive property damage and adverse health effects that it is considered so dangerous.

Signs of Indoor Mold Growth

How can you tell if mold is growing in your Chicago property? The following signs are indicative of a problem:
• Cold-like symptoms
• A musty odor
• Visible black spots on walls, ceilings, floors, and various other surfaces
• Peeling wallpaper
• Bubbling walls
• Warped wood
If you notice any of these signs, it’s essential that you contact a reputable mold removal company in Chicago ASAP!

Why Professional Mold Removal is Important

Often, the presence of mold can be difficult to detect. In the beginning stages of mold growth, you may not notice any of the above-mentioned signs; usually, you won’t notice anything that would make you suspect a problem until it has already grown to a severe level. A professional Chicago mold removal expert will be able to perform testing to confirm the presence of mold in your home or business. At All Star Mold Removal, we collect air and surface samples, and have those samples lab-tested. Based on the results of those tests, we can determine whether or not mold is present, and if so, what type and the extent of the damage. Based on our findings, we’ll determine the best methods to use to remediate your property. If mold does exist, our highly trained technicians will use our proven strategies and the most advanced tools to ensure that your property is fully restored to safety. We will detect and correct the source of moisture that has led to mold growth, thoroughly cleanse all affected areas, use air scrubbers to remove airborne mold particles, and perform post-remediation testing to ensure that your property has been restored to safe levels.

How Much does Mold Removal in Chicago Cost?

It’s difficult to determine how much mold removal will cost without performing an in-person assessment. That’s because there are so many factors that affect the cost of the process, including the extent of the damage, the size of the area affected, and what type of strategies need to be used. The team at All Star Mold Removal will be happy to provide you with an in-person assessment and estimate. Just give us a call and we’ll send our technicians to your property right away!
