The attic, roof decking, and ceiling drywall in the South Hamilton home are inspected to trace the full path of the roof leak moisture.
Contain
The attic access or ceiling opening is sealed under negative air pressure before any colonized material is disturbed.
Remove
Saturated insulation and mold-colonized drywall or decking are bagged and removed through the containment area.
Dry

Good to know
Mold After Roof Leak in Lynn, MA: common questions
How can I tell if a ceiling stain has mold behind it?
Signs include a persistent musty smell, a stain that continues to grow, or drywall that feels soft to the touch.
Can mold remediation wait until after the roof is fixed?
It is better to have the moisture assessed promptly. Waiting allows mold more time to spread through insulation and framing.
Is mold from a roof leak covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on the specific insurance policy and the cause of the leak. The damage is documented with photos and readings to support any claim.
Do I need to leave my Lynn home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Lynn home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Is the attic inspected for mold?
Yes. The attic, insulation, and roof decking are inspected first, as this is where roof leak moisture accumulates before reaching the ceiling.
Is insulation replaced?
Saturated and colonized insulation is removed and disposed of during remediation. Reinsulation is typically coordinated with the roof repair.
