Every component of attic mold addressed: the visible growth, the substrate, and the cause.
🔍
Attic Mold Assessment & Ventilation Survey
Assessment covers sheathing moisture content readings, growth extent mapping, identification of all exhaust fans terminating inside the attic, vent count versus square footage comparison, and ridge vent assessment. Written findings before scope proposal.
🔨
Roof Deck Sheathing Mold Treatment
Loose surface mold removed by HEPA vacuuming and wire brush. EPA fungicide applied followed by penetrating borate solution. Sections with advanced degradation are flagged for sheathing replacement.
💨
Bathroom & Kitchen Exhaust Fan Rerouting
Improperly-terminated exhaust fans are corrected by extending ductwork through the attic to a gable, soffit, or roof cap termination point — properly insulated flexible duct or rigid metal, sealed at the fan housing and at the exterior cap. This is typically a same-day correction completed alongside the mold treatment in your Woodmere home.
🏔
Soffit Vent Addition & Ridge Vent Assessment
Additional soffit vents where NFA is insufficient. Eave bays cleared of insulation obstruction and baffled to maintain airflow pathway. Ridge vent assessed for blockage or inadequate design.
😵
Attic Insulation Removal Where Contaminated
Contaminated insulation — whether wet from roof infiltration or heavily spore-laden — is removed under containment and replaced with fresh material. Insulation removal is scoped based on assessment findings, not assumed in every job.
📄
Post-Remediation Clearance & Moisture Verification
Post-treatment sheathing moisture content re-check plus independent post-remediation air sampling from within the attic and from living spaces below confirms that treatment and ventilation correction achieved the intended outcome. Written clearance report suitable for insurance and real estate use in Woodmere, NY.
