The process
The roof leak mold removal and cleanup process in Long Grove, IA
Inspect
The inspection starts in the attic to trace the full path of water through roof decking, insulation, and ceiling drywall.
Contain
Containment with negative air seals the attic access or ceiling opening before any colonized material is disturbed.
Remove
Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are safely bagged and removed from the containment area.
Dry
The attic space and ceiling cavity are dried completely, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly.
Verify
Final moisture readings confirm dryness, and remaining framing receives treatment before the job is closed.
