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.

It's not often that I come across a company that truly exceeds my expectations--but this team certainly did. I contacted them on very short notice to evaluate a commercial property with a water leak, and they responded quickly without compromising the quality of their service. From the moment they arrived, I was genuinely impressed by their professionalism, knowledge, and commitment to helping me understand the situation. What stood out the most was how thoroughly they explained everything. They walked me through the restoration process step by step, outlined exactly what to expect, and even identified the likely source of the leak while explaining how the problem may have developed. They didn't just inspect the property--they took the time to educate me, answer my questions, and make sure I felt confident about the next steps. In my profession, I know how important it is to have reliable, trustworthy vendors that I can confidently recommend to my clients. This is definitely a company I will keep in my network and refer without hesitation. Thank you for your prompt response, outstanding customer service, and genuine dedication to doing the job right. You turned what could have been a very stressful situation into one that felt manageable and under control. I highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a restoration company.

He found some issues that needed attention and some things that might ultimately need work. However, after I had moved into the unit, I had a handyman do some work on replacing the dishwasher drain. While the handyman was here, he volunteered to look at some of my appliances. When he opened the washing machine, he found dark black mold on the rubber inside the machine. I brought this to Shawn's attention, and he wrote, "In regards to the washing machine and dryer. We simply test for proper operation to ensure that the water lines and drain lines work for the washing machine. Since these are considered personal appliances these aren't covered by the inspectors SOPs." (I assume he meant Standard Operating Procedures). I had to pay over $600 to have the rubber lining replaced. Needless to say, Shawn did not offer to reimburse me for that expenses.

Chicagoland Home Inspectors

If I were a contractor, I would look to get an endorsement from this company. Frank Dattalo was great on-site. The follow-up call with Charles Bellefontaine was very insightful. The combination of the two... 1) saved us additional time and money, 2) gave us confidence to not second guess walking away (we thought we had found a home that we would live in for decades), and 3) was a learning opportunity as we continue house hunting. I would highly recommend Chicagoland Home Inspectors, especially if you are purchasing a home that is 100+ years old. Even more so if the home is for sale by owner. They provide the information that you need to hear before making such a substantial commitment. You may be disappointed but purchasing a 100 year old home without this type of thorough inspection is akin to closing your eyes and taking a leap of faith that the seller wants what's best for you and your family. For context, the home was built in the early 1900s, three-stories, brick, original hardwood floors. The seller presented the home as being fully renovated with a new roof, electric wiring, plumbing, HVAC retrofit, etc. Frank called days a head of the inspection to ask some questions and discuss what services were needed. He removed one of the services, and the extra cost, because it wasn't needed. Frank arrived early and was already scanning the roof (via drone) when I arrived. He was more than happy to answer any questions that I had and he made a point to show me areas of major concern in-person. When I pointed things out Frank was more than happy to take a look and answer my questions. On the follow-up call, Charles took the time to further explain the findings, provide input on priorities and talked us through estimating tools. He also provided a different perspective and opinions. Talking with both Frank and Charles was incredibly valuable. Charles was surprised that our realtor recommended Chicagoland Home Inspectors and was quick to tell us that's a great sign that our realtor has our best interests in mind. If your realtor tries to steer you clear of this firm, definitely inquire why. You have to live with the consequences, not your realtor. Some Inspection Findings: - Licensed contractors didn't perform work properly - Major systems (which are new) were functioning but had potential issues that could shorten lifespan/void warranties - Source of moisture intrusion hadn't been identified/repaired - Attempts to clean up mold - Potential safety hazards Other Details: Inspectors are only required to check one electric outlet per room, this firm checks all of the outlets. They found the one that was incorrectly wired and posed a safety risk. When they tested the water pressure they made sure to turn on multiple faucets not just one at a time, identified a pressure issue. One thing to note, make sure the seller or broker has everything prepared. Any water valves that are shutoff equate to a sink that cannot be inspected. All appliances and systems need to be fully operational to be inspected.
