Attic Mold Removal In Fairfield County CT

Your Fairfield County CT attic can be the ideal environment for major mold growth. Conditions like excessive heat, high humidity, or roof leaks can provide enough water to cause and sustain mold growth. Attics tend to suffer from ventilation and insulation problems. These problems can obstruct air circulation and encourage moisture buildup.

Mastertech’s attic mold removal professionals in Connecticut can identify if your attic has a mold problem and develop a safe and effective attic mold removal solution. Once your attic is clean and safe, we’ll make recommendations for preventing mold from returning in the future.

What Causes Attic Mold In Fairfield County CT?

Aside from the obvious roof leak, moisture buildup in the attic can be inconspicuous and easily overlooked. As hot air rises in your Fairfield County CT home, it collects in your attic. If an attic is not properly ventilated, it can be very vulnerable to excessive moisture buildup. Warm air in the attic can lead to condensation and elevated humidity.

Conditions that promote attic mold growth:

• Condensation
• Poor ventilation
• Excessive heat
• High humidity – over 55%
• Unaddressed roof leaks
• Fans and ventilation that empty into the attic rather than outside

Can Attic Mold Make My Family Sick?

It is very possible. Mold effects each person differently. Mold symptoms range from mild allergic reactions to severe upper respiratory problems. It all depends on the individual, the species of mold, the length of exposure, and several other factors.

In addition to potential health problems, living in a home with mold is simply unsafe due to the underlying water problems. Where there is mold, there is a water source. Mold and water damage can eat away at your building materials and seriously compromise the structural integrity of your home. That is why an attic mold removal plan will ALWAYS include moisture control tactics to prevent future problems.

A thorough attic mold inspection in Connecticut, completed by a professional, will determine if you have mold, how bad it is, what caused it, and how to properly fix the problem.

Visual Assessment – During a visual walk-thru, your inspector will look for conditions that could be causing and sustaining fugal activity. You will have access to all digital documentation from our inspector for your records.

Moisture Mapping – Your inspector will carefully map out the damp or wet areas of your attic to determine moisture migration patterns and get to the bottom of where the water starts and stops.

Moisture Meters – Your mold inspector will use moisture meters to read the moisture content of your attic building materials. Moisture locked within porous building materials easily go unnoticed for a long time.

Thermal Imaging – Your mold inspector will be taking advantage of the temperature difference between wet and dry materials. Thermal imaging will allow your inspector to clearly identify all wet areas. This will allow for a more thorough understanding of the mold growth pattern.

Attic Mold Testing – Surface and/or air quality tests will provide scientific data that will confirm or deny the presence of mold and how much mold is present. If mold is confirmed in your attic, the test results will help your inspector figure out the most appropriate course of action to resolve the mold issue.

Report of Findings – Your Mastertech inspector will develop a detailed, easy-to-read report that outlines what the inspector did, what he/she found, and what to do next. If deemed necessary, your inspector will present you with a detailed scope of work for a safe and effective attic mold removal.
