The process

The roof leak mold removal and cleanup process in Calamus, IA

Inspect

Attic roof decking, insulation, and ceiling drywall are inspected to map the full path of the water intrusion.

Contain

The attic access is sealed under negative air pressure before any colonized materials are disturbed.

Remove

Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged and removed via containment.

Dry

The attic space and ceiling cavity are dried completely, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly.
