SERVPRO Helps Malden Homeowners with Attic Mold Removal
Molds are found everywhere and grow from microscopic spores in the air. With the right conditions, they can sprout quickly, and before you know it, you have a situation in your Malden home. If not managed quickly, roof leaks, condensation, and poor ventilation can cause mold growth. Attics readily provide the things mold needs to grow, like food, oxygen, moisture, and the right temperature. Moisture is one thing you can probably control when it comes to mold. Keeping enclosed areas dry is important in preventing mold damage.
If mold removal services in Malden homes are needed, SERVPROs response is rapid. You can have our technicians at your doorstep shortly after contacting us to evaluate your home. Mold colonies penetrate deeply into the wood, drywall, and carpets, among other surfaces and items they affect. Therefore, you need people with skills and essential equipment to deal with the issue.
How to avoid attic mold
- Check the roof for leaks
- Repair missing or loose shingles
- Inspect the chimney for loose bricks or flashing
- Proper attic ventilation
Air travels upward toward the attic as household activities like cooking, bathing and showering produce moisture that makes its way to the attic and becomes trapped. Proper roof ventilation is crucial in keeping the attic dry and mold-free.

SERVPRO helps you safely remediate mold in the attic by preparing your home for the process. We remove and discard non-salvageable material. We then use dry ice blasting for cleaning. This method is superior as it uses no chemicals, produces no odor, and creates much less of a mess as no water is used. The technique uses dry ice blasting pellets, which go directly from a solid phase to a gas phase and do not add moisture back to the cleaned surface.
