Our process
Our mold after roof leak process in Grand Terrace, CA

Contain
We seal off the ceiling or attic access point before disturbing any mold-affected material.

Mold After Roof Leak in Grand Terrace, CA: common questions
How do I know if a ceiling stain has mold behind it?
A musty smell, a stain that keeps growing, or soft spongy drywall are signs mold may have developed behind a roof leak stain.
Can I wait until the roof is repaired to deal with mold?
It's better to have the moisture assessed as soon as you notice it. Waiting gives mold more time to spread through insulation and framing.

It depends on your policy and the cause of the leak. We document the damage thoroughly, which helps if you file a claim.

Yes, we inspect the attic space, insulation, and roof decking since that's usually where roof leak moisture starts before it reaches the ceiling.
