How it works
A Documented Process, First Look to Verified Result.
- 01 Free On-Site Assessment A certified technician inspects the affected areas, traces the moisture source, and documents the scope. You get a written plan and price before anything starts.
- 02 Containment The work zone is sealed under negative air pressure with HEPA filtration so spores don't migrate to clean areas of the building.
- 03 Removal & Treatment Contaminated porous materials are removed; structural surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and treated with antimicrobials.
- 04 Drying & Source Correction Industrial dehumidification brings materials back to safe moisture levels, and the leak or condensation source that caused the growth is corrected.
- 05 Clearance Testing Independent air sampling confirms spore levels are back to normal before containment comes down. That's when the job is done.

Attic mold can be harmful to your health, and to the structure of your property.
What you may not know is that the degree of danger with attic mold to your health is not only dependent on the type of mold present, but to a greater degree, the people that come in contact with. There are so many variables when it comes to the toxicity of mold, that no matter the mold type, it should always be deemed harmful from the get go.
When it comes to us humans, our immune systems and our bio-makeup are all different, one person that may be affected by allergy to one type of mold, may have no reaction to another, and a second person in the house may react completely the opposite, and so on and so forth. Add to that the status of each person’s immune system, and you have a chaotic situation that may be hard to unwind. If a member of a household, or an employee has a compromised immune system due to illness, or chronic conditions, they may be far more susceptible to the affects of present mold. Bottom line, to properly test for mold issues, you should also test each person for their mold sensitivities…we all know that’s not feasible in most cases, and the costs of doing so would escalate the overall attic mold removal costs, most clients take the stance that any mold is bad mold, and that the health of all involved is not worth the risk, and go ahead and undertake a mold removal project knowing that once done properly, there is little need to worry.
No Matter the Type, Source or Location of Your Mold Most Experts Agree it Should be Removed, That Includes the Removal of Attic Mold
“Any visible mold should be removed, no matter what its color or species,” says Tiina Reponen, PhD, professor of environmental health at the University of Cincinnati. “In a healthy building, you don’t have visible mold.”
Attic Mold Removal and Your Health | Chronic Illness Concerns
When it comes to chronic illness, mold removal isn’t really an option, it’s mandated. We hear it all the time, doctors telling patients that they have to mitigate all mold issues or their immune systems will be inundated with spores to the point it won’t be able to respond to the illness(es) at hand. Additionally, the presence of mold can start a cascading effect that could take a seeming well well person and expose their immune system to enough mold spore duress that any lurking illness that was being kept at bay can now take advantage of a weakened immune status and create a chronic condition by it’s mere presence.
The CDC’s Perspective on Mold Testing and Removal
“Generally, it is not necessary to identify the species of mold growing in a residence, and CDC does not recommend routine sampling for molds. Current evidence indicates that allergies are the type of diseases most often associated with molds. Since the susceptibility of individuals can vary greatly either because of the amount or type of mold, sampling and culturing are not reliable in determining your health risk. If you are susceptible to mold and mold is seen or smelled, there is a potential health risk; therefore, no matter what type of mold is present, you should arrange for its removal. Furthermore, reliable sampling for mold can be expensive, and standards for judging what is and what is not an acceptable or tolerable quantity of mold have not been established.”
The EPA’s Perspective on Mold Testing and Removal
Is sampling for mold needed? In most cases, if visible mold growth is present, sampling is unnecessary. Since no EPA or other federal limits have been set for mold or mold spores, sampling cannot be used to check a building’s compliance with federal mold standards. Surface sampling may be useful to determine if an area has been adequately cleaned or remediated.

Common questions
Before You Call, the Honest Answers.
How quickly can someone come out to Portsmouth?
For emergency water-and-mold situations we respond around the clock. Standard mold assessments in Portsmouth are typically scheduled same or next day.
Do I need mold testing before removal?
Not always. If growth is visible, remediation is the answer regardless of species. Testing makes sense when you can smell mold but can't find it, during a real-estate transaction, or when a doctor wants to know what someone is being exposed to at home.
Is the mold in my basement dangerous?
It depends on the type and the exposure. Certain molds can cause respiratory irritation, particularly for people with asthma or allergies. What we can say for sure is that mold in a fieldstone-foundation basement will keep spreading until the moisture is controlled — which is why assessment comes first.
Will it come back after remediation?
Not if the moisture source is corrected — that's part of our scope, not an extra. Mold needs water; remove the water and verified-clean surfaces stay clean. Clearance testing at the end documents the starting point.
Does homeowners insurance cover mold removal?
Policies vary. Mold resulting from a sudden covered event — a burst pipe, for example — is often covered; slow seepage usually is not. We document the moisture source and scope in writing, which is what your adjuster needs either way.
