Great Environmental, Inc.

About us

Great Environmental has been helping homeowners and small business owners with their environmental and air quality concerns since 2005. Through our 20+ years in business, we get calls all the time from people who suspect there is “something going on” in their home or business that is making people sick. We would go out and do a standard airborne mold test, and there were dozens of instances where the results came back as normal. Our customers were left paying for a test instead of getting some answers. In these cases, all we were able to tell them is what WASN'T causing their symptoms… until now! Introducing our IAQ Home Survey: - Monitors for 500+ airborne chemicals AND hidden mold growth with a SINGLE AIR SAMPLE! - One test covers up to 2,000 sq. ft. - Identifies chemical pollutants that could make you sick - Predicts sources of the chemicals, whether from the home or its contents Get the peace of mind you are looking for, not just mold test results and no solutions!!

Excellent! It is a Family owned business. Matt is very personable and explained everything with the whole process. I needed someone right away, and he genuinely seemed like he wanted to help. He fit us in his schedule immediately, even right before Memorial weekend. We got results very quickly, within 2-3 days and we were able to move along closing on our house. I would definitely recommend them as well as the testing for your home.

I don't know what I would have done without John. I am battling the renovation of a 1950s house. With it comes many issues. John has stepped in and stepped up, to help ease my worries and put a plan into place to make the house safe and in tip-top shape. What I really appreciate is that he's not an alarmist. He will give you his honest, professional assessment, even if it means he walks away not making a single dime. But he also listened to my concerns and helped me put a plan in place. They did an extraordinary job, and followed up with appropriate and necessary testing. Could not have found a better person and team for the job! Thank you Great Environmental! Thank you John!! Thank you to his fabulous crew. I'm eternally grateful!!

Is this business even open any more? I've tried calling several times and the phone rings twice and then there is silence. There is an option to contact them on their website, but when I leave my info and click submit, nothing happens. Can anyone recommend another service similar to this one? The mold smell is coming out of my hvac ducts again. I'm in the Joliet area .

Everything was done professionally, left for 21/2 hours. I came back to clean return ducts. Did not realize that the other vents did not contain abestos. I remembered all vents, return or otherwise being counted.

Recently bought a house with mold in the crawl space. John went above and beyond to get us into our house as soon as possible. Even worked on a Saturday to get us into our new home. Would highly recommend him and his company to everyone with mold issues. Thanks John and crew!!!

John came out to inspect our old house for asbestos. We thought there might be something there and indeed John found it. He offered a number of solutions, and rather than selling a service just to sell, he spent time to educate and strategics about the best treatment option. We haven't committed to full removal but are grateful for John's expertise and patient outline of options.

John pointed out that mold spores are always present in all homes. The problem arises at what level and more specifically what type of spores are present. After visual inspection and a number of questions he asked of me, he did not seem overly concerned about my situation. He gave me the option to proceed with the testing for my own peace of mind. I opted to proceed. The results turned out a low mold count. I appreciate Johns honest and candid assessment. I recommend his services.

I called John and asked if he could do some immediate testing. He was able to accommodate accordingly and perform the tests in a timely fashion with the promise of results by the next week. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

The owner John was very easy to work with. He always returned my calls promptly and communicated clearly along the way. We got the best price from him out of all the service providers who gave us quotes. And he delivered a nice job, and his team cleaned up after themselves. I'd gladly have him do work for us again.

John inspected our attic and thoroughly explained the type of mold and the best options to handle it. Unlike many alarmists in this field, John's customer service and knowledge was abundant and helped us take the best course of action for our family.
