Our product Mold-X2 is a special two-part system of botanical and stain remover. This means we are killing the mould and then also removing it from the lumber! The result are essentially immediate. The product can also be used on concrete. 
Great job by our installer Logan here! This attic is well on its way to being dry, safe and comfortable- helping this home save money on energy bills.

Before:

When cold weather hits, proper attic insulation is important to keep your home warm and energy efficient through the winter. Adding more insulation on top of old may not give you the results you need to keep the home comfortable. A continuous vapour barrier under the insulation is a vital component to keep warm air in and cold air out.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems will remove the old insulation then seal all openings before adding the required amount of blown-in cellulose. 17 inches of insulation is the recommended amount to bring the R-value up to R60.

A properly insulated home requires a complete vapour barrier on the inside of insulation. Holes or cuts in the barrier will allow conditioned inside air to move out of the home. Common perforations in the attic are electrical fixtures (pot lights!), plumbing pass throughs and structural components or chimneys.

Advanced Basement Systems was called to inspect the attic of this home. It was discovered that all the light fixtures were not properly sealed to the air barrier. The old insulation was removed, the fixtures sealed and new blown-in cellulose was added to a thickness that provides the recommended R-60 insulation value.

Before:

A complete air/vapour barrier is very important for insulation to work best. Many insulation materials will allow air to travel through it as pressure in the home equalizes. Attic insulation is no different. The home was older and did not have a continuous barrier between the living area and the attic. A closed-cell spray foam was applied to provide the barrier.

After:

Advanced Basement Systems removed the old insulation, applied a closed-cell spray foam to provide the air/vapour barrier required. Once completed, 17 inches of blown-in cellulose finished the job to give the homeowner R-60 recommended insulation.

The home owner called Advanced Basement Systems because their home was not retaining heat on the upper levels. The home was older with outdated rock wool insulation in the attic. The old insulation was incomplete and did not have the proper vapour barrier to retain the heated air from below.

The inspector recommended complete removal of all old insulation prior to sealing the attic deck with spray foam. This will complete the air vapour barrier prior to adding a top layer of blown in cellulose! Now the attic is insulated to the recommended R60 value.
