The mold after roof leak process in Elizabeth, NJ
Inspect
Attic spaces, roof decking, and ceiling drywall are examined to determine the full extent of water migration.
Contain
The attic access or ceiling opening is sealed under negative air containment before any affected materials are disturbed.
Remove
Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged for removal through the sealed containment.
Dry
The attic and ceiling cavity undergo thorough drying, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly over time.
