Attic mold
removal.Fix the cause, not just the stain.

Most folks never go in their attic, so attic mold grows for years before anyone notices, often during a home sale. It is almost always a ventilation or roof-leak problem. We remove the mold and fix what caused it.

The usual cause

Bad airflow, or a quiet leak.

Attic mold comes down to moisture, and in an attic that moisture has two common sources. The first is poor ventilation: warm, damp air from the house rises into a stuffy attic and condenses on the cold roof decking. The second is a roof or flashing leak you have not spotted yet. Sometimes it is bathroom or dryer vents dumping moist air into the attic instead of outside.

We remove the mold from the decking and framing, treat the wood, and then fix the real problem, whether that means correcting ventilation, sealing a leak, or re-routing a vent. Otherwise it just grows back on freshly cleaned wood.

Straight answers

Common questions

How did I get mold in my attic?
Almost always trapped moisture: weak ventilation, a roof or flashing leak, or vents dumping humid air into the attic instead of outdoors. We find which one it is.
Does attic mold affect the rest of the house?
It can. Air moves, and spores travel. It also scares off buyers fast during a home sale. It is worth handling before it spreads or costs you a deal.
Will you fix the ventilation too?
Yes. Removing the mold without fixing the airflow or leak just buys you a year. We solve the cause so it does not return.
No pressure, no scare tactics
