Good to know
Mold After Roof Leak in O'Fallon, IL: common questions
How do I know if a ceiling stain has mold behind it?
A musty odor, a stain that keeps growing, or soft drywall are indicators that growth may have started behind the ceiling.
Can you wait until the roof is repaired to deal with mold?
A moisture assessment is recommended promptly. Waiting allows growth more time to spread through insulation and framing.
Does insurance cover mold from a roof leak?
Coverage depends on the policy and leak cause. Damage is documented with photos and readings to support any claim.
Do I need to leave my O'Fallon home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the O'Fallon home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you go into the attic to check for mold?
Yes. The attic, insulation, and roof decking are inspected first, as that is where roof leak moisture collects.
Will insulation be replaced?
Saturated and colonized insulation is removed and disposed of during remediation. Reinsulation is typically coordinated with roof repair.
