Mold Infestation in a Chicago Heights Attic

When a slight water leak seeps from the roof to the sheathing in an attic in Chicago Heights, the result can be as shown in this Before Photo. The black mold colonies are feeding on the untreated attic lumber. The mold spores from these fungi can circulate through the attic void and eventually be picked up by the HVAC system. Now there is the potential for mold propagation in the living quarters of this home. Our SERVPRO technicians can block the attic with poly sheeting and then use a dry-ice blasting to remove the mold from the cellulose surfaces. A placed HEPA filtered air scrubber can then capture the airborne spores and particulates. We can spray an antifungal agent in the treated area, inspect the air ducts, and leave behind another satisfied customer. Did we mention that we have experienced contractors on our team then can also repair the roof leak? Well, we do. So contact SERVPRO of Chicago Heights / Crete / Beecher for roof repairs, mold remediation, and water or fire damage restoration services.
