Attic Mold removal in Lincroft, NJ

Challenge

A homeowner in Lincroft, NJ had an extensive amount of mold growing in the attic. The relative humidity in the attic has to reach above 75% before mold can grow on wood and/or insulation. Mold in the attic causes dry rot and structural damage to the wood. Also mold creates airborne pathogens which affect people's health and the indoor air quality of the house. It’s extremely important for the homeowner to take immediate action when mold is present.

Solution

Looking at the homeowners attics roof decking or sheathing we see mold spreading across the wood and in some cases in the insulation itself. Our team uses Mold-X2 Stain Remover that removes mold stains in 20 seconds and is a highly effective cleaner for contaminated building surfaces such as wood and masonry. It’s important to remember while Mold X-2 stain remover eliminates mold, it does not prevent it from growing back unless moisture is controlled. Next our team uses Mold X-2 Botanical to fog the attic to help prevent mold from growing on the building materials. The Mold X-2 stain remover has an odor and we use the Mold X-2 Botanical that has an all-natural thyme based formula that’s also helps minimize the odor.

After spraying and fogging the attic our team now works on eliminating the humidity and moisture causing the mold to grow in the attic.
