BLACK MOLD INSPECTION: HYANNIS, MA

The customer called PowerBees to report mold in her attic. She was concerned about her allergies being affected by the mold, and wanted to receive a proposal for mold remediation.

A certified mold inspector examined her home and found Black Mold and White Mold in her attic on the plywood sheathing and joists. The mold was heaviest on the side of the house that bordered upon marsh land. It is believed the mold was a result of improper ventilation. The soffit vents were covered with insulation and the ridge vent was partially covered with roofing materials. PowerBees recommended setting up a Managed Air Flow Environment, the use of HEPA Air Scrubbers and HEPA vacuums, antimicrobial treatments and encapsulation as part of the Mold Remediation process.
