The process

The mold after roof leak process in Mills River, NC

Inspect

Attic space, roof decking, and ceiling drywall are checked to trace the full extent of water travel from the leak.

Contain

The attic access or ceiling opening is sealed under negative air pressure before any colonized material is disturbed.

Remove

Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged and removed through the containment barrier.

Dry

The attic and ceiling cavity undergo thorough drying, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly over time.
