Could my Attic Create Mold Issues?

9/4/2018 (Permalink)

"Leaks in the Attic" May be Worse Than "Bats in the Attic"!

Leaky roofs and malfunctioning gutters and downspouts are leading culprits with respect to water damage and mold.  Often, such leaks take a prolong period of time to seep down through the attic and into the ceilings and walls below.  This delay in recognizing that you have a problem, coupled with a hot, moist, and humid attic, is the "perfect storm" for the growth of mold. We all like to use our attics to store our extra belongings, but mold should not be one of them!

Should you experience a problem with your roof,  gutters or downspouts, don't delay, immediately contact your local SERVPRO professionals to come and inspect your attic. Getting your attic dry and any mold remediated, will put you and your family at ease.
