The Above Image Shows How Attic Mold Can Cause Ceiling Stains
Have you been noticing brown spots on your ceiling or puddles pooling on your floor? The ceiling stains you are noticing can be cause by a few things. Poor ventilation or insulation, too much humidity in your home, a leaky roof, or incorrectly installed goosenecks or vents. But how do you know what the underlying issue is, and how do you go about cleaning up those unsightly brown watermarks?
Is Cleaning a Ceiling Stain Enough?
Cleaning up the stains on your ceiling is not that difficult. There are a few easy, DIY options that will get your roof back to looking pristine. You can use bleach and water to blot and wipe away the stain. This will not remove the entire stain, but it will remove some of the colour from the ceiling stain and once it has dried you can paint over the area. If painting is not an option you can remove the damaged area and replace it with new materials, or you can sand and seal the area. These quick fixes will get rid of the ugly stain, but if you do not address and repair the underlying issue, your ceiling stains will continue, and your issues can become even worse.
