Do you think you may have mold after a severe storm?

7/8/2021 (Permalink)

It’s been raining a lot in Decatur these past few weeks. Those are some ideal conditions where mold can spread quickly since it requires moisture and high temperatures to spread throughout our homes. If you can see something resembling mold…it is probably mold.

Prevention and maintenance are key to keep your attic mold-free. Call a professional roofing company to inspect your roof and check for leaks. A small leak over a long period of time can cause extensive damage to your home. 

Inspect your attic regularly and make sure vents are not blocked by boxes, crates, critters, or insulation. If your HVAC system is in your attic, check to see if there are any leaks or excessive moisture around the unit (pay close attention to the condensate pan and drain line.) Make sure ducts from the kitchen or bathrooms run to the exterior of your home and not just the attic.
