Mold on the roof sheathing and rafters is usually a result of poor ventilation, improperly venting fans, insufficient insulation, or a combination of these factors. Attic mold is commonly discovered during a home inspection or renovation.
If you suspect you have attic mold — or you don’t have any visual signs but may suffer from allergy-like symptoms that can’t be explained — you can opt to hire a certified mold inspector. This expert will conduct scientific air sampling, collecting samples that will be analyzed in a lab. In the case of attic mold, visual signs of mold are likely the only way to determine if there is an issue since Cladosporium, the most common type of mold found in attics, is odorless.
It’s important to tackle a mold problem as early as possible. Certain mold spores — especially those with an elevated concentration — have been found to cause health problems such as a runny or blocked nose, watery or red eyes, a dry cough, skin rashes, a sore throat, sinusitis, wheezing, asthma, and/or pneumonia.
If you can see the mold, regardless of its type, we encourage you to contact us directly, and we’ll be happy to come out and inspect the area — free of charge.

If mold is visible, the inspection process is not necessarily a long one. We can come to your home (free of charge), look at the area in question, and determine the next steps for mold removal. All of this can take place within a day or two, and we can schedule mold removal for the following day or within the next week, depending on our work load.
