📍 Serving Chicago, North Shore, West & Southwest Suburbs
Chicago & Immediate Area
Chicago properties experience high humidity, older foundation seepage, flat roof drainage, and ventilation imbalances — especially in attics, multi-units, and historic brick structures. We help homebuyers, sellers, landlords, and property managers identify mold safely with clear documentation for next steps.
North Shore Region (Separate Division)
Mr. Mold Inspector of North Shore Chicago
The North Shore has unique moisture patterns — older attic build-outs, tight insulation envelopes, basement seepage from lake climate, and hidden mold behind plaster or paneling. This area is serviced by our dedicated North Shore division, trained specifically in identifying attic humidity, ice-dam roof mold, and foundation-driven moisture. Visit Mr Mold Inspector North Shore Chicago for more info.
