The process

The roof leak mold removal and cleanup process in Truckee, CA

Inspect

Attic roof decking, insulation, and ceiling drywall are inspected in Tahoe City homes to map the full path of the leak.

Contain

The attic access point is sealed with containment and negative air pressure before any affected materials are disturbed.

Remove

Colonized insulation and drywall are safely removed and disposed of from the contained work area.

Dry

The attic space and ceiling cavity are dried completely, as insulation can retain moisture long after the surface appears dry.

Verify

Final moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, and remaining wood framing is treated before the job is completed.

What indicates mold behind a ceiling stain?
