The process

The mold after roof leak process in Kingston, IL

Inspect

The attic, roof decking and ceiling drywall are checked to trace how far the water actually traveled.

Contain

The attic hatch or ceiling opening is sealed under negative air before colonized material is disturbed.

Remove

Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged and carried out through the containment.

Dry

The attic and the ceiling cavity are dried out fully, since wet insulation gives up moisture slowly.

Verify

Readings confirm the space is dry, and the remaining framing is treated before the job closes out.

Good to know

Mold After Roof Leak in Kingston, IL: common questions

How do I know if a ceiling stain has mold behind it?

A musty smell, a stain that keeps growing, or drywall that feels soft are the signs growth has started behind the ceiling.

Can we wait until the roof is repaired to deal with mold?

Have the moisture assessed as soon as you see it. Waiting gives growth more time to move through insulation and framing.

Does insurance cover mold from a roof leak?

It depends on the policy and the cause of the leak. The damage is documented with photos and readings to support a claim.

How do you keep the mold from coming back after mold after roof leak?

The moisture source is fixed first, not just the mold, then the structure is dried and rechecked. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Kingston home.

Do you go into the attic to check for mold?

Yes. The attic, insulation and roof decking are inspected first, since that is where roof leak moisture sits before it reaches the ceiling.

Will you replace my insulation?

Saturated and colonized insulation is removed and disposed of as part of remediation. Reinsulating is usually scheduled alongside the roof repair.

Do I need to leave my Kingston home during the work?

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Kingston home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.

Do you serve Kingston?

Yes. Local contractors cover all of Kingston, including Colvin Park, Herbert, Kirkland, and the rest of the Kingston area. The line is answered around the clock, and a visit is often set the same day you call.
