The process

The mold after roof leak process in Des Peres, MO

Inspect

The attic, roof decking, and ceiling drywall are inspected to trace the full path of water intrusion.

Contain

The attic access or ceiling opening is sealed with containment and negative air pressure before any colonized material is disturbed.

Remove

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

Dry

The attic space and ceiling cavity are dried completely, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly.

Verify

Moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, and remaining framing is treated before the job is complete.

Good to know

Mold After Roof Leak in Des Peres, MO: common questions

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

A musty smell, a stain that continues to grow, or soft drywall are indicators that growth may have started behind the ceiling.

Can remediation wait until the roof is repaired?

Have the moisture assessed promptly. Waiting allows growth more time to spread through insulation and framing.

Is mold from a roof leak covered by insurance?

Coverage depends on the specific insurance 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 Des Peres home.

Do you inspect the attic for mold?

Yes. The attic, insulation, and roof decking are inspected first, as that is where roof leak moisture accumulates.
