Is Mold Hiding in Your Attic?

3/17/2017 (Permalink)

In our experience, 95% of all mold problems in attics go completely unnoticed for a long time because most people seldom spend any time in their attic.

The attic mold might be discovered during a home inspection or by the homeowner who is not even selling their home but notices it one day after going into the attic for the first time in many months or even years.

That’s why it’s so important to be proactive. You have to check your attic for mold periodically, then fix the problem in the early stages when it’s far easier and lighter on your wallet. But the good news is that the type or color of the mold you have is pretty much irrelevant. Why? Because all visible mold regardless of the color, type, species etc should be approached in the same manner.

The approach is simple: if you see visible mold, it should be removed.
