About Mr Mold Inspector
Independent Mold Inspection & Testing — No Remediation, No Conflicts
Mr Mold Inspector is an independent mold inspection and testing company serving homeowners, buyers, sellers, landlords, and property managers throughout Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. We specialize in unbiased mold inspections focused on identifying moisture-related problems, determining when mold testing is appropriate, and delivering clear, documented results you can trust.
We provide inspection and testing only. We do not perform mold remediation or removal. This eliminates conflicts of interest and ensures every inspection is based on facts — not sales pressure.
Who We Are
Inspections at Mr Mold Inspector are performed by Frank Masoud, a licensed and certified inspector with extensive hands-on experience inspecting residential and multi-unit properties across Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. Frank has completed over 5,000 inspections, focusing on identifying moisture intrusion, hidden mold conditions, and indoor air quality concerns using evidence-based inspection methods. His approach is practical and unbiased — mold is evaluated as a building condition driven by moisture, not fear — and findings are documented clearly so clients can make informed decisions without sales pressure.
