Attic Mold Removal in Greensboro, NC

Attic mold is almost always caused by a roof leak or bad ventilation. You often see it as dark stains on the underside of the roof sheathing. Cleaning it without fixing the airflow just means it will come back.

Common causes we find

Most attic mold in the Triad comes from one of these.

  • Blocked or missing soffit vents
  • Bathroom fans that dump into the attic instead of outside
  • Small roof leaks around vents or flashing

Our process

We inspect the whole attic, document the source, treat all affected wood with an EPA registered antimicrobial, and either sand or fog based on how deep the mold went. We can also coordinate roof and ventilation repairs.

Frequently asked questions

Why did mold grow in my attic?

Almost always it is trapped moisture. Common causes are blocked soffit vents, a bath fan dumping into the attic, or a slow roof leak around a vent or flashing.

Should I replace all the plywood?

Usually no. If the wood is still structurally sound we treat, sand or fog, and seal it. Full replacement is only needed if the wood is soft or delaminating.

Will insurance pay for attic mold?

If it is from a sudden covered event like a storm-damaged roof, often yes. Long-term ventilation issues are usually excluded.

Can I finish the attic after this?

Only after the ventilation is fixed and the wood is fully dry for at least a week of monitoring. Otherwise you seal the moisture in.
