We unfortunately had a leaking roof that wasn't properly repaired as promised by the previous seller. While fixing our master closet, we discovered mold. After reaching out to several companies, we chose Moldman because they offered the best pricing, had great reviews, and came highly recommended by my best friend, who had used them for a similar issue. They responded quickly, provided an estimate, and gave us a fair price. The team was professional, communicative, and did excellent work. They sealed off the area, removed the damaged drywall, and treated the mold thoroughly. They later returned to install new drywall and insulation, and they primed the area to prepare it for painting. We're extremely happy with their work, and we were finally able to restore our master closet. read more

Benny did an amazing job removing mold in my 2 bathrooms! The walls look brand-new. He went above and beyond by making a suggestion in one of my bathrooms and making it happen! You should hire them! read more

Had some shower mold and was wondering if it was extreme enough for a job like moldman- I spoke to Greg over the phone- we had used their services before and had a great experience- Greg had me send some pictures of the trouble areas- he assured me it just typical shower mold and gave me a quote but also sent some instructions on how I could address the issue myself- you can't beat their honesty and on top of that, do really nice work when the job calls for it- will always use and recommend them! read more

Found what I thought was mold behind the baseboards in my bathroom as I was doing some renovations. Had some huge concerns that there was a lot more mold under the floors or behind the dry wall so I called moldman. They were able to schedule someone to come out the next day. David and Conner came out and they were very honest and thorough in their inspection. They checked out the affected area and ensured me there was only mold in a small area where I could easily cut out the damaged dry wall. They didn't try to sell me on anything I didn't need or trick me into thinking it was a big issue that would require a lot of work Hoping I don't run into any other mold issues but if I do I'll absolutely be reaching out to Moldman again. Would absolutely recommend Moldman to anyone read more

not very trust worthy or reliable in my experience. I reached out to the sales guy david to return a call about an appointment. No answer. left a message but never called back. Very unprofessional demeanor and i appreciate them telling me nobody in my building would be safe but after doing some research i could of used vinegar then whiped the wall down with bleach. read more

I had some visible mold and areas with water damage and overall a great experience working with Miguel, Raul and the rest of the team. If you need someone to open up walls, deal with mold, and close it up, they'll do a great job. The work was on-time and Miguel was clear about checking in and setting/re-setting expectations. Whenever I called, someone answered quickly. They sent over an estimator promptly who was able to assess the situation and the scope of work needed. This matched what we ended up paying. The team recognized that we'd need our HVAC temporarily disabled so they found and coordinated a specialist coming in to do that work and just included it in the bill. The work was professional, the workers arrived on-time, and the work was great. I had another remediation company come and they told me Moldman's quote was much more competitive than they could offer. The improvements I wish for are relatively minor. We didn't know the source of the leak, so we had to find and schedule a plumber to come in. The other issue is cosmetic. The paint used once the walls were filled back in is not a match to our prior walls, so it is clear that work was done. I didn't realize this until after the work was complete, so I wished they'd asked me to supply paint to provide a more exact match. read more

I Invited Ralph to my house for a problem investigation and estimate. Ralph arrived on time and provided me a solution to the problem in the professional manner AT NO CHARGE! I had a great experience talking to Ralph and would recommend him to anyone else. read more

I called Moldman after we had some water leak into the common hallways of my condo building during recent storms. I was concerned that we might have mildew build up and risk of mold, but the sales rep relieved us of any concerns. During the estimation process he analyzed the walls and ceilings for moisture and found that none existed and we did not need to do any work. It isn't often that a contractor will tell you that his services are not needed, but Moldman did and I'm quite grateful for their honesty and professionalism. I would not hesitate to contact them again if I experienced any water management issues in the future. *knocks on wood* read more

He was great! Very responsive and professional. He was able to determine the issue, even though it wasn't actually mold related. He certainly went above and beyond. I would absolutely recommend. read more

We had a phenomenal experience with Moldman from start to finish. I have some health issues that made the remediation process pretty high stakes for me. Ralph was thoughtful in his assessment of our space and remediation protocol. Due to my health condition, there are certain chemicals that I can't tolerate, and Ralph sent me the ingredients in the products they use so that I could discuss with my doctor. He is also simply a kind human being. I would highly recommend using Moldman, should there be a need. They are compassionate and fair. Thanks for everything! read more

Miguel was extremely responsive to my service request to assess possible mold growth in my attic. He completed a full assessment and provided me with what needed to be done to correct the issue. He was honest to say that this wasn't something that a mold specialist should fix and the assessment was completed at no charge to me. He also took detailed pictures of the issue so I can use them to get the problem corrected. He was on time to the appointment. Great communication and service overall! read more

Miguel came right over (was in the area) and did an inspection of our bathrooms/showers. He reassured us that we did not have mold and that we just needed a good cleaning of vents. Appreciated the honesty and prompt service. If mold does become an issue, Moldman will be the service we call and recommend friends. read more

This is the company to hire if you have any water/mold issues. Miguel came out in less than 24 hours and assessed the water intrusion in our basement. He provided his honest opinion and didn't sell us any services that weren't needed. I highly recommend Moldman. read more

We found a closet that was really moldy and immediately called Moldman to remediate the issue. They were incredibly professional from start to finish. I trusted what was told to me regarding the seriousness and treatment of the situation. They were very reasonable with pricing. They made us feel comfortable with using the company. Sure glad we found them. They came in and did exactly what they said. Just took a couple hours to fix the closet issue. No hidden costs no hidden fees, just honest answers. I highly recommend using Moldman! read more

Exceptional service! Was given an appointment right away. Their availability was convenient! Ralph was punctual, responsive, and assertive with his mold inspection.

I had some impossible to clean dark areas in between shower tiles in a rental unit. I began to suspect it was mold, so I reached out to Moldman. Ralph responded to ask for some pictures, and was able to diagnose over email. He told me how to take care of it. I did what he suggested, and it areas looked better almost immediately! All this happened within the span on 12 hours. Super fast response, great advice, and they didn't even have to come to perform the test! I will definitely use them again in the future. read more

I had a real stressful issue where I found out I had mold in our bedroom wall coming from a leak in the window frame. I was very concerned when I saw black mold. I called Moldman and Miguel came out the next day. Miguel spent w good hour with me looking at the area, in the crawlspace and attic and determined that it was from the window and was contained to that area. While having mold in your house us no fun Miguel really put me at ease and I will be using their services. Highly recommend! read more

***UPDATE*** Since sharing this, the Moldman team we're able to come out and offer their guidance, assess the space and offer a more than generous discount on their services because of the mixup. Accidents happen. And the Moldman crew certainly made up for it (and then some). read more

We've had a musty smell in our pantry for a month and got a mold detection analysis (for $350!) that told us there was some mold but nothing more. We reached out to Mold Man and Miguel asked to see the report. We sent it over and instead of pushing a pro clean or other unnecessary items on us, he said it didn't look like there was an active water problem but he would swing by and help us look for the source. Th next day he came by the house and inspected our pantry with his moisture camera and explained how everything looked dry and wouldn't push a clean on us. He gave us some tips for monitoring the humidity (and for throwing away old corn tortillas!!) and said to give it some time to see if the smell dissipates -- all for free!! Huge thanks to Miguel--he was super helpful and friendly and we will absolutely be referring him to anyone who has a mold issue! read more

Miguel came out to assess the level of mold we might have in our basement. He provided his analysis of any water damage and potential leaks causing any type of mold we might have. Quick response, honest opinion, and gave some great suggestions to remediate the issue. Highly recommend doing business with the Moldman! read more

I reached out to MoldMan after getting a quote from another company for an issue in our back room that we thought was water/mold damage. The previous company quoted us over $3,000 to fix the "issue". Ralph was super friendly and honest with us about our concerns and told us that there was no damage whatsoever. We really appreciated his honesty, punctuality, & communication over the last few days. He definitely put our minds at ease. We will 100% be referring everyone we know to MoldMan or using them ourselves if we ever need to. It's really hard to find honest companies and people these days. Thank you, Ralph! read more

I had a great experience with Moldman and would highly recommend! Since the first call, they were informative, professional, and responsive to all my inquiries.

Mold came up in our home inspection and we requested that the seller address it. We both agreed with hiring moldman after I met with them for an estimate. Ralph did the estimate and he was great. He was early and was understanding when my realtor was running late. He immediately assured me that the issue could be quickly fixed, which made me feel much more confident in continuing with the home purchase. He also recommended another company to address the ventilation issue, which initially caused the mold. read more

Moldman Chicago - attic all cleaned - Damage Restoration Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I gotta give a shout out of thanks to Ralph for coming and checking out not 1 but TWO of my properties. I truly regret I wasn't able to give him any business as one property was for sale and I was able to offer credits and he concluded the other has no active mold, but Ralph was incredibly friendly and cooperative for both consultations. Very informative and got me the price quotes in speedy fashion the same day. Will definitely hire if the need arises again! read more

We live in California but are selling a house in Illinois. After our renters moved out, the house was absolutely filthy so we came back for three weeks to fix the house up to put on the market for sale. Days before we were headed back to California we went up in the attic, just as a last-minute check to make sure everything was good. We should have gone sooner!!! Directly above the Bathroom was a stripe of mold in the attic ceiling. Yikes! I started calling mold remediation companies immediately. I called five or six different companies who all told me the same thing - they would have to schedule and come out in a week or so. But I needed someone now!! I was going home in two days!! My husband remembered an ad I saw on Google for a company that said "don't pay thousands of dollars to remove your mold" or something to that effect. So I found the ad again and called them. They had a location in the Chicagoland area and we're happy to help me right away. YAY!! When I called I told them my predicament and I told them that I only had two days left to get this taken care of. The girl who answered the phone was very kind and was very good at de-escalating my panic. She let me know that it's not a big deal, that they handle these things every day and that she's happy to help if I could send her a few pictures of the attic and out of the area affected. She said she could get it over to an estimator right away and they could get me a quote the same day. So I sent the photos right away on the email and within an hour I had a quote. Now for the most amazing part - I emailed them back to accept the quote - which was exceedingly reasonable, And I asked them if there was any way that they could come out the same day or the next day Saturday. (I had already been shot down by five or six other companies so I was ready for a big fat no.) I was HAPPILY SURPRISED when I got an email back that they could come out within an hour! What??!! Great!!!!! David came out to assess the situation and handled all the mold himself - he did an amazing job - you can't even tell it was there! He checked the entire attic and made sure that everything was taken care of before giving us a 10 year warranty certificate! I couldn't have asked for more and I highly recommend this company - the price was very very reasonable - it was in the hundreds, not thousands, and they were immediately responsive to my needs! GREAT COMPANY!! read more

We hired Miguel (from Moldman) to do a commercial mold remediation. We received a totally professional job and excellent communication throughout the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Miguel to any person or business need this type of work. He is one of those rare contractors that understands the importance of promptness and quality. Highest regard for Miguel. read more

I didn't have any work done, but I have to give a shout-out to Ralph, the estimator who inspected my situation. Other contractors had told me I had mold behind basement drywall that needed remediation. Ralph got in and got his hands dirty, and told me I was fine: what others had thought was mold was just natural discoloration and dust. A couple spots could be treated with a homemade bleach solution... there wasn't any need for a big crew knocking out all my walls. The honesty and integrity is so refreshing! He could have easily sold me on unnecessary work. If I ever have mold concerns in the future, Moldman will be my first call. read more

I had Chuck from Moldman out to assess our basement after a recent flooding. He was extremely professional and honest about our situation and gave us several options for managing our problem. He even followed up with a phone call when he figured out one of the issues we were having. I felt very comfortable working with them and would recommend them for sure to others! read more

Had the opportunity to work w/ David from Moldman on a condo flooding and corresponding mold issue in my condo unit. He took time to understand the issue, review and walk me through the report results, and interpret them to expedite my resolution path and ultimately timing to return to my home! He provided gold standard customer service which is increasingly rare these days! I would highly recommend them for any future work. Thank you guys!! read more

Following my previous review, Greg, the owner, reached out to me and expressed concern, explaining the situation. Apparently, a confluence of factors occurred, and a handful of customers were affected in this way. I was assured that measures have been taken to prevent it from happening again. He also offered to do the complete job for me in one day, at a deeply discounted price. I decided to take him up on the offer, but thought I would have to wait until spring, since the winter was upon us and the area in question was an unheated garage. Our unusually warm weather presented the possibility of doing it right away. Well, once the ceiling was opened, wetter than expected wood was revealed. The workers did what they could, but had to leave it open to dry before treating it. They even provided a heater to facilitate the process. A couple of days later, the dry-waller returned to treat the wood and repair the ceiling and wall. He did what he could, but needed to allow the mud to dry and return the next day to finish. The final result is amazing! It looks better than when I bought the house, and nicer than some areas inside the house. These guys worked for three days to be sure the job was "done right", rather than just "done fast", and didn't skimp on quality, even though it was just a garage and didn't need to look perfect. I am terribly impressed. The price quoted would have been reasonable even without the discount. I will absolutely use them again, and have already recommended them to friends. read more

Our tenant's apartment had mold growing on their closet rug and we were very concerned since it's a garden unit. Ralph came out this morning, on time and was extremely thorough and went through the entire apartment. Mold was growing since it is damp and our tenants keep their closet door shut with no air circulation. Ralph gave us tips to keep it from happening again and said we had nothing to worry about. Also, he did not charge us for the visit and we greatly appreciate that since I know they are busy with the crazy storms this part of the city had in the last three weeks. We would definitely use them again! read more

Super quick response, super efficient scheduling, thorough, and honest Thank you Moldman!

My sump-pump stopped working during a storm a few months ago. My finished basement looked like there was minimal damage, but I was concerned about possible mold. I had three estimates from various companies. Two of them estimated around $5,000 to "remediate" and to reconstruct. Moldman was my third estimate. David came over and relieved all my anxiety. After he inspected, he told me that there was nothing concerning in my basement and if I could live with the wavy floorboards, there was nothing that needed to be done. SUCH a relief!!! I'm so glad I called them, they saved me a ton of money. Unfortunately, there are lots of unscrupulous companies out there. read more

Moldman was very professional with our work. They were always on time, things were planning out well. Raul was the guy who was in-charge and he is a pleasure to work with. He has a very professional and yet friendly demeanor and answered all our questions in great detail. Never recommend anything more than you need and provide visual evidence for any work that he deem needed. Wonderful guy. read more
