Heating and cooling costs account for up to 50-70% of the energy used in an average home. This means that losing your home’s hot or cold air makes for a huge energy waste. Taking steps to prevent this loss is especially important when thinking of ways to make your home greener. Adding insulation to your attic helps reduce your energy costs by lowering the amount of energy you need to keep you home at a comfortable level.
Today, one of the most effective ways to save energy when buying new homes or upgrading existing homes is through energy efficient Cellulose Insulation. Cellulose provides significant, on-going savings versus other insulating materials on the cost of home energy.
Attic mold develops due to poor ventilation, roof, siding or window leakage, insufficient insulation, and poorly installed insulation. If there’s insufficient ventilation or the home’s venting has been installed incorrectly, the warm moist air from the bathroom, kitchen and dryer can rise into the attic. This warm moist air mixes with the cooler attic air, especially during winter months, and creates condensation which leads to mold growth.
Professional mold removal is a step-by-step process involving the use of specialized equipment and techniques. There are many details involved in doing this process correctly.
When was the last time you ventured into your attic? If you are like most home owners, its been a while! Attics typically are often forgotten about until a roof leak occurs.
Since attics are often out of sight & out of mind, they easily become a breeding ground for mold. Believe it or not, attics are one of the most common places for mold growth in a home.

Ensuring you have good insulation is key to cooler summer temperatures and warmer winter ones inside your home. You pay a lot to heat and cool your home. Do not let your money escape out of a poorly insulated roof.
A properly ventilated and insulated roof will also save you money on heating and cooling. Your roof is exposed to extreme heat and cold. The roof releases humidity and heat from your home.
As these are released from your home they can be as damaging as rain from the outside. If the roof vents are not working properly, that heat and humidity become trapped. If trapped they will begin to deteriorate the wood rafters in the attic and underpinnings of your roof.
If you have visible mold, we provide free estimates for mold removal. Did you know that almost every indoor environment has mold at low levels? It is true. But when there is visible mold in a home or the number of airborne mold spores is higher than normal, a mold problem exists and can affect the health of your family.
Sometimes mold problems are small and can be addressed by the homeowner. However, when the problem is beyond the capabilities of the homeowner, that’s when RPM @ Home Team is your best choice to perform professional attic mold removal.

We use specialized equipment such as moisture meters, air quality tester and other equipment during our inspections. We collect air or surface samples at the discretion of the homeowner.
