Saint George Attic Mold Damage

When mold growth occurs in the attic of your Saint George home, the damage can seem overwhelming. Damage in an attic can come from the exterior of the home near the roof and siding, or from the interior of the home from ventilation systems, attic hatches, piping etc. Both causes of damage can reap tremendous repairs. If your attic sustains damage from a leaking roof or cracked siding, mold can grow rapidly in the small, warm, moist area that has little to no ventilation. This mold growth can go unseen for an extended period of time since the attic area isn’t frequented often. When left untreated and in favorable circumstances, the mold will spread rapidly. When mold damage occurs from an inside location, oftentimes the attic is not the only victim. If moisture is brought through a bathroom or kitchen ventilation system to the attic, the ducts and any area on the way to the attic is at risk of developing damaging mold over time. If a pipe that runs through the attic is leaking, the water will also run along the pipe, through walls and into other rooms, leaving a long trail of mold damage along the trail. Mold damage is not something to be taken lightly. It can permanently damage wood and drywall while leaving residents sick from the airborne pores.
