Hi. This is Steve from Roofer911.
I'm at a home in Woodbridge, Virginia and they have a leak that's right across the top of the bed. If you look right there, you can see a yellow little stain. I always tell home owners all the time, "What you see is one thing. What I see may be something totally different." This is exactly what I mean.
This is an infrared image and you can see all this purple, all this blue, that's all saturated insulation. It's anywhere from 45% moisture to about 90%.
What I highly recommend is to go inside the attic, remove all that wet insulation. Let it stay open for about a week so everything dries. Once everything is dry, then you can put new insulation and I highly recommend to do this as quick as possible, removing the insulation. If you don't, there's a very good chance you could develop mold.
My name is Steve from Roofer911. If you have any questions, I can be reached at 703-475-2446. Thank you.
