Attic Mold Removal

Besides your basement, your attic is probably the second most susceptible area in your home when it comes to mold. You don’t have to be a genius to understand why this is. Just like your basement, it provides the spores with everything they need to flourish. This includes heat, humidity, and more food than they could ever want in the form of your wood sheathing or features. Add to this that few people go into their attic other than to put away the Christmas decorations, and one quickly begins to see that we have a recipe for mold nirvana.
​
That Smell
Whilst one can get a faint scent of mold at the best of times, when it comes to attic mold, it can knock your socks off. The traits are amplified due to the lack of airflow and high humidity levels. In serious cases, this smell can penetrate other parts of your home. To ensure you nip the problem in the bud before anything happens, we would suggest you trust your nose and give us a call the moment you smell anything funky in your attic. The quicker you act, the quicker we can get it sorted.

Three Main Causes
Just like all the factors that come together to help the mold thrive, we have identified 3 main culprits when it comes to the source of mold growth in your attic. Firstly we have noticed, and this is a general theme, that 99% of attics are poorly ventilated. This situation is exacerbated due to any dryer vents or bathroom fans that are not exhausted correctly. Whilst these two reasons are common, the number one culprit when it comes to sources in attics is leaky roofs and general roofing issues. Fortunately for you, we have a set of solutions that can handle all of them and so much more.

Black Mold
Have you noticed that a black discoloration on your wooden beams or sheathing has started to develop? This could be a sign of black mold, and please believe us when we say that this is not something to be messed around with. We are sure you are well informed when it comes to the dangers of this mold species, and the only thing you have to do when you think you might have an issue is to give us a call immediately. Our experts will be on the case right away to ensure it no longer poses a threat to you and your loved ones.

Ventilation
Whilst we are by no means saying that ventilation is going to keep your attic completely mold-free, in our many years of experience, we have discovered that it is one of the easiest aspects you can correct, and will have a massive impact. We have a design and solution for any type of sized attic. This will guarantee that your attic stands the best chance when it comes to mold spores and all the troubles that accompany them. To find out a little bit more all you have to do is give us a call right away.
