Certified Attic Mold Removal
for The Colony Attics — Cause Before Treatment

Two prior inspectors told us our The Colony attic had mold that needed full sheathing replacement — over $12,000 in quotes. Cheap Mold Removal measured MC% on every panel, identified 90% of the darkened panels as sapstain (MC% consistently below 14%) and only 8 panels near the north eave with active growth (MC% 23–26%). They HEPA-removed and borate-treated those 8 panels, rerouted the bathroom fan that was terminating 4 feet short of the exterior cap, and baffled the blocked eave bays on the north side. Total remediation cost was $1,800. Post-clearance confirmed clean. They saved us $10,000-plus from unnecessary full replacement.

What stood out was the CFM measurement on the bathroom fans. One fan measured 19 CFM at discharge — about 40% of its nameplate rating — because the flex duct had too many bends and an undersized exterior cap creating back pressure. Cheap Mold Removal rerouted it with shorter duct, fewer bends, and a proper cap — measured 52 CFM at the exterior cap after rerouting. That 33 CFM difference is why that bathroom was growing mold on the ceiling joists above it. Fixed the cause, not just the symptom.

Commercial building attic remediation — significant sheathing mold from an HVAC rooftop unit condensate drain that had been discharging onto the roof deck instead of to the drain line. Cheap Mold Removal assessed the sheathing panel-by-panel, replaced 14 panels with confirmed structural delamination, treated all remaining panels with borate, coordinated with our HVAC contractor for the condensate correction, and produced clearance documentation before our roofing warranty inspection.
