Attic Mould
Mould growth and mould
infestation in the attic of one's home or other buildings is a very
likely mould problem because of the deferred or undone maintenance of
roofs by most property owners. Besides being a fertile place for mould growth, attic mould is extra
dangerous because mould growth in the attic can spread into and inside [hidden] the ceilings and walls
below.
Questions
About Attic Mould
[Nov.

Q.
I need some advice, I am buying a home in Michigan and I had a home
inspection done yesterday. The inspector noted some mould growing on the
rafters and plywood. I assume this is from replacing the leaky roof 6 or 7
months ago. Should I be concerned about the mould and can it be cleaned up
and killed easy enough? Or should I buy another house to limit the danger
of buying a problem house? What are your thoughts?
A.
You should be very concerned about attic mould because it can spread into
and inside the ceilings and walls beneath the attic. Your first step is to
have the attic area [and probably the entire home inspected for mould and
tested for mould by a
Certified Mould Inspector. If you are
not willing to pay for your own, independent, complete testing of the attic
and home, you might consider buying another home. But whatever home,
you buy, it would be good to have the entire home thoroughly examined and
tested for mould problems because buying a mould hell can be disastrous for
both your family's health and finances. In regard to your question
about how easy it will be to kill and to remove the mould in the home you
are trying to buy, get estimates from several mould remediation companies,
including your Certified Mould Inspector. If you want to consider removing
the mould yourself, please visit:
Mould Remediation.
