Attic Mold Removal In Byron, MI
Your attic needs to 'breathe'. Sounds a little funny but it's true! There should be air coming in and air going out, passively controlled by ventilation. While there are different types of ventilation, they need to be installed correctly and working appropriately for the amount of space you have. In this 'before' photo you can see that the insulation is pushed all the way up against the wood sheathing (the underside of your roof) and there are no baffles in place. This is preventing air from flowing upwards and through the soffits (a type of intake ventilation) into the attic and out which can lead to moisture, which WILL lead to mold. In our 'after' photo, you can see that the insulation is pulled back the slightest bit and a baffle (imagine a snorkel) is placed to allow airflow, it creates a snorkel, or chute for air to come in. We treated the mold and the underlying cause so it doesn't return!

Attic catwalk in Dexter, MI
Our homeowners found their home a bit on the chilly side during this past winter season. During our inspection of the attic we found only 2” of insulation. Our homeowner wanted to use for storage also. We built a catwalk in the attic to allow for ample amount of insulation and a area for storage.
