What can you do when you have found mold growth in your attic. SERVPRO of Franklin/Walpole  have narrowed down the 6 most common causes of mold growth in you attic.

If you're like a lot of people you probably store all your holiday decorations in the attic. During these times it would be a good time to inspect your attic for mold. For some there could be a nasty surprise waiting for us.

1: A leaking roof.

2: Missing or improperly installed insulation.
