"Mr
Gezik came to my home to inspect for mold. We have an older home that
has a basement with a storm door egress. He was honest, and I felt very
comfortable with his assesment. He took the time to inspect, and inform
me of mold, and it's growing habits. I am very pleased to say the
least! How refreshing to find someone who is honest and straight
forward with you and not trying to rip you off!. I would recommend this
company, very highly in fact. I looked on BBB has an A+ rating! I got
lucky and my concerns were put to ease that we do not have a mold
problem...but, I certainly will use his buisness in the future if I
ever do...or know someone who has a problem with mold or is concerned!
Thank you so much!!!" - Jennifer M., Channahon, IL.
"When I found out how bad my asbestos problem was, I panicked. I was
ready to hire the first company at whatever cost. The first bid came my
way, my jaw dropped! Calls to other places were not much better. Great
Environmental was the last call I made, it should have been my first! I
talked to John, and a few days later he was at my house evaluating my
situation. He was very thorough with his inspection, and gave me a
quote. Great Environmental saved me a lot of money, and did an AWESOME
job! Even after the job was completed, John was available to answer the
few remaining questions I had. I would recommend Great Environmental to
anyone and everyone."- Twanzilla
“We have used Great Environmental's ozone services several times to
ensure mold removal in properties we have listed for sale as well as
under contract to sell. John's results consistently meet required
testing standards. In addition, with every project, he goes that extra
step and ensures excellence in his results. He is prompt, wonderful to
work with, competitively priced and obtails successful results!!” -Bill
TeVogt,
"The response to my question was the same day. They were very
knowledgeable, friendly and honest with me and left me with peace of
mind. I would recommend them to everyone and have no problem with
calling them in the future if needed as I fully trust all that they have
told me thus far." - J. R. Waukegan, IL
“Based on BBB files, Great Environmental, Inc has a BBB Rating of A+ on a scale from A+ to F.”(Better Business Bureau)
"Of all the contractors I talked to, Great Environmental was the best by
far. Very professional throughout the entire process. John explained
everything that needed to be done on the front end, and I had no
“surprises”. They did what they said they would do, and everything
looked great upon completion. For the service they provided and the
hassle-free experience, I got a great deal! Highly recommended!"- Evgeni
"After our basement flooded, we pulled out the carpet and found some old
asbestos-containing floor tile underneath. I chose Great Environmental
to remove these old tiles, because they provided the most clear
explanation of the work needed to be done and associated cost. They came
up to Wilmette from Joliet just a few days after my request and did a
fantastic job. I would definitely use these guys again." - Chip C.
Wilmette, IL
"John was very professional and my initial appointment was prompt. He
was very thorough in detailing what work would be done and I felt his
prices were competitive. When he submitted his proposal he suggested
that I might consider getting the tile tested before I commit to any
work. We followed his advice and found out the tile was asbestos free or
negative. His honestly saved me a lot of money which I was able to
apply towards my basement project. I wish everyone was as honest and
knowledgeable as John. Highly recommended!!" - John T. LaGrange Park,
IL
"Very personable, very professional, quick service."
- Mr. S. Aurora, IL
"John Gezik (of Great Environmental) is very personable and great to
work with. He communicates well and is responsive to questions and phone
calls about the work. We worked into an agreeable timetable for the
task of removing siding from our house on the second floor. His workers
arrived on time on the scheduled start date and work was completed ahead
of schedule. The work was done well and the clean-up of the yard/garden
and other areas around the house was superb. Great Environmental used
creative thinking in how to get the work done on our house that enabled
them to come in with the lowest bid of the 4 companies we took bids
from. They earned their VERY GOOD rating." - Don G. Glen Ellyn, IL
"On July 19th I had asbestos tiles removed from my kitchen floor. They
were found when I was preparing to get new vinyl flooring. I was very
pleased with the communication, knowledge, cleanliness and timeliness of
everyone that I dealt with from the company. I called 3 other companies
and left a message and none of them called back. I was very excited
when I got to talk to John in person!! I would highly recommend them!!" -
Laura B. Joliet, IL
"Extremely professional and prompt service. The company was very willing
to provide service which accommodated our schedule. The owner is
knowledgeable and took time to answer several questions. Would highly
recommend Great Environmental to others." - Margaret O. Chicago, IL
“Absolutely Awesome!!!! I was moving back to Illinois to live with my
mom. I planned on turning her basement into a mini apt for myself. The
basement had the old 9x9 tiles which I knew had asbestos in so they
needed to be removed. I found Great Environmental in the phone book and
talked with John. He took the time to explain everything to me. We
emailed back and for and since I was out of state he came to the house
to inspect the area and ended up meeting practically the entire family.
They were very impressed and it seemed like they were talking to an old
friend, HIRED!. I came home once they started the project and it was
gone with great perfection and professionalism. I took before and after
pics and what a transformation. CALL TODAY!” (Google Reviews)
“Quick, Thorough & Helpful Having a 125 year old house comes with
"charm" and over a decade of home building repairs, including asbestos
wrapped steam pipes. John provided an estimate and explained the
procedure in great detail. He and his team were responsive and stayed in
communication during the entire process. The work site was prepared
according to requirements and left pristine. Highly recommend Great
Environmental.” –Dawne (Google Reviews)
“I highly recommend John and Great Environmental. I was concerned about
having a healthy environment in my home, and was worried that any mold
or fungus may be making me sick. I discovered that the service that John
at Great Environmental does is NON-TOXIC. I felt very comfortable with
John and even trusted him enough to leave my home for a weekend while I
was away on business for him to come in.
The results are in...NO MOLD any where in my home!! I believe that if
anyone wants to make sure their home is safe to live in, you need to
call John right away to get on his calendar”. -Trish Kroner
“John is great at what he does! He is very knowledgeable in the field
of enviromental safety!” Rick G., Realtor, Coldwell Banker Honig-Bell
“John provides the highest quality service of all the remediation companies out there.” -Gary Monfeli, The Home Inspection Man
“I hired John Gezik, President of Great Environmental to handle mold
remediation in our basement. Following home inspections, and after
reviewing two other company's proposals, I was very surprised at the
high cost associated with mold removal. Having two younger children at
home, I was also concerned with the use of chemicals that the other
companies were using to eliminate mold from our basement. However, Great
Environmental, offered a chemical free alternative that was
substantially less then its competitors.
John was my main point of contract throughout the process. John returned
my calls and emails promptly, and thoroughly discussed the whole
process with me in great detail. John and his crew showed up on time
each day and completed the work two days sooner than what his
competitors were offering. During the whole process, John's crew were
very professional and courteous. After the work was completed, the
basement was SPOTLESS! I was thoroughly impressed throughout all phases
of the project. If you are considering mold remediation in your home, I
would highly recommend Great Environmental.” -Craig B.
“Having a house built in 1959, I'm always concerned about the "Health of
my Home". I couldn't imagine living through the Winter breathing the
stale air & allowing the mold to continue breeding.
Your totally 'GREEN' process is 100% environmentally friendly and doesn't utilize any chemicals.
Thank you for totally eliminating the pet odors, killing the mold in my
attic and making suggestions for overall home health improvement.
You made the process so easy and now I have the peace of mind I didn't believe was even possible!” -Michael H.
“After having our basement infested with asbestos fibers by a careless
HVAC contractor, John was there to collect samples for analysis and
offered us a quote for a cleanup. His quote was very competitive, and
even if we chose to buy equipment and clean up the area ourselves, John
was there for us throughout all this, we called him several times, and
he always offered free and valuable advice. John is very knowledgeable
on the subject and honest. We will hire him to remove some mold in the
attic.” Marius D.
“I'm honored to have been part of John's success over the last year. He
has done a fabulous job, transforming his small company into the
thriving business that is today. John's technical skills and expertise
have put him in a class by himself. His focus on solving customer
problems is second to none. The value he delivers is unmatched. He has
become the "Trusted Advisor" of the industry!” -Chris Condon, Associate,
ASA- Alliance for Strategic Advantage
“John Gezik provides an unmatchable passion for his industry. His
excitement is evident when quality results are produced. I, as I’m sure
many others, trust John that when he says he can improve a living
environment, he delivers. John’s years of professional experience and
expertise in the asbestos removal and clean air/mold remediation
industries make me proud to say that we are professional colleagues.”

Report Summary
There was progressive inactivation efficacy with increasing exposure
times to our treatment. For dry bacteria there was at least a one log
unit (or >90%) reduction evidenced for all treatment times. For
bacteria in a wet environment, there was at least a one log unit (or
>90%) reduction observed after 60 min. or more of treatment. The
8 hour treatment was extremely effective for all bacteria in a dry or
wet environment. There was no surviving bacteria of any type detected
after the 8 hr. treatment in dry or wet environments with reductions
ranging from > 7.74 to >8.94 log-units in the wet
environment. The was no surviving Stachybotrys chartarum detected in a
wet environment after the 30 and 60 min. treatments with a >4.45
log unit reduction observed.
The test of Bacillus
atrophaeus, which is used as a surrogate for Bacillus
anthracis (anthrax), showed a 99.996, 99.98, 99.59, and 99.13%
reduction on various office supplies inoculated with the bacteria.
The test of E. coli
given an eight hour treatment yielded a greater than 99.997% reduction
on dry surface and a reduction of greater than 99.9999998% on wet
surface.

Villanova University
Food Service
Problem:
Uncontrollable odors and bacteria in food service preparation.
Solution:
"We have experienced mold problems in many of our refrigerators on
campus, including off odors for years, not being able to eliminate the
problem. The manufacturer claimed to be able to eliminate our problems
with one treatment. They came on site and in two hours, solved our
problems in one of our boxes.
I think this is a product and service
ahead of its time and very much needed. Operators are not aware of the
effectiveness. You are on the cusp of a major breakthrough, in my
opinion. I would recommend...their breakthrough product."

Problem:
Complaints at the County Health Department from employees suffering
from respiratory illnesses. An independent laboratory confirmed high
levels of bacteria present.
The manufacturer of our patent-pending
process was called in to perform a treatment for air purification and
bacteria removal. High levels of toxic contaminants were found prior to
treatment.
