Our process
Our mold after roof leak process in Walworth, WI

Contain
We seal off the ceiling or attic access point before disturbing any mold-affected material.
Remove
Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are removed and bagged for disposal.

How do I know if a ceiling stain has mold behind it?
A musty smell, a stain that keeps growing, or soft spongy drywall are signs mold may have developed behind a roof leak stain.

It's better to have the moisture assessed as soon as you notice it. Waiting gives mold more time to spread through insulation and framing.
