The roof leak mold removal and cleanup process in North Riverside, IL

Contain

The attic access is sealed with containment under negative air pressure before any colonized material is disturbed.

Remove

Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged and removed through the containment barrier.

Dry

The attic and ceiling cavity undergo thorough drying, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly.
