The process
The mold after roof leak process in St. Louis, 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.
