Dark mold growth, while common, can cause allergic reactions and various symptoms even when in the attic.
Great project which ultimately lowered the indoor humidity by 20% making it more livable for the family, storage where there was none previously, and much more healthy from and indoor air quality perspective (no stinky bacteria).

"The teams that came out from K-Savers did FINE work in cleaning up our moderately-flooded basement after the July 4th rainstorm, removing the tile flooring in main room and the crud from concrete floors, washing and sanitizing all floors, cutting out/removing the drywall & insulation that was damp; they left huge fans and a dehumidifier running down there to help dry the area. They went above and beyond in every way, and wanted me to inspect and ask any questions I had. It is cleaner down there now than it was before the flooding. I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"Arc Insulation went above and beyond our expectations. Chris was such a pleasure to work with and was very patient with all of my questions and concerns. We did spray foam insulation and had several companies come out to give us a quote. No one seemed to have the knowledge or customer service Arc Insulation was able to provide. Luis performed the actual spray foam insulation and did a wonderful job. Our home is now night and day with comfort levels. We could not be happier with this company and will use them in the future for insulating our crawl space. I would recommend them to anyone looking to have spray foam insulation done right."

"Professional and top quality service from beginning to end. Robert, the sales rep, inspected our attic and instantly identified the root cause of our mold problem, matching what a separate inspector also ascertained. He worked with us to provide a fair price for a comprehensive solution that remediated the mold while also recommending an approach to the root cause. What is great about Green Attic is that they are able to handle it all...saving me time and money from having to go through separate companies to piece together the full solution. Communication throughout the entire process was timely, consistent, and pleasant. The crews who came to do the work were obviously experienced and went out of their way to ensure I was kept up to date on progress (showing me before and after pictures along the way). These guys worked hard in tough conditions and made me feel confident the job was completed to spec and with attention to detail. I couldn't be more pleased!"

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Just because you find mold in your home does not mean you need to pursue professional remediation services. You can often clean small amounts of surface mold, such as in bathrooms or on windowsills, using household products. However, extensive mold growth, persistent odors, or mold caused by water damage require professional remediation. A good rule of thumb is to hire a pro when the mold is in an area larger than 10 square feet, poses health risks, or affects the structural integrity of your home.

In most cases, cloudy tap water is safe to drink, as the cause is often harmless air bubbles. A simple test is to let a glass of water sit for a few minutes; if the cloudiness dissipates, it was likely just trapped air. However, you cannot be certain of the water's safety without knowing the cause or performing a water test. If the cloudiness is persistent, comes with yellow or brown discoloration, or is accompanied by plumbing issues, it may pose a health risk. In such cases, it is best to call a local plumber to find the cause.

You normally won’t see any dust or mold actively floating out of your vent, but you might notice your vent looks dirty. Mold will cling to the sides and collect almost like black soot. Dust will look, well, dusty, but there will usually be a heavy buildup so expect thick gray layers on the bottom and sometimes the sides of the vent. If you suspect you have mold in your vents, call a professional immediately.

If you own a stereo microscope, you should be able to see the fibers. The stereo microscope often can perform magnification up to 50x. But unless you have experience viewing asbestos fibers, you may not know exactly what you are seeing. Some fibers are curly, while others are long and straight. Blue, brown, white, and gray colored fibers are all possible.

The primary difference is that black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) is considered toxic and more dangerous than regular mold. It can produce harmful chemicals called mycotoxins, which may lead to severe health issues like respiratory problems, skin irritation, headaches, and other long-term complications. While regular mold is rarely toxic, it can still cause allergic reactions and respiratory irritation. Visually, black mold often appears dark—green, gray, brown, or black—with a fuzzy texture, whereas regular mold can be almost any color. Black mold is less common and typically grows in areas with severe water damage. Regardless of the type, you should not ignore any mold infestation in your home.
