“Working with Enviropure was a great experience. Ron explained the mold removal process in detail. Jake arrived at the appointed time and the house felt refreshed and clean after the service. I would highly recommend this company.”
Frost on the nail tips and patches of early-melting snow show where warm house air is reaching the roof deck.
Winter is a good season for an attic mold inspection in Falls Church, because the roof deck is at its coldest and any condensation on it is there to see. You climb through the hall-closet hatch for the holiday boxes, see dark speckles on the plywood above the insulation, and can't tell from the hatch whether they date from a leak fixed years ago or are still spreading.
An inspection tells an old stain from active growth, and it finds what keeps the wood damp.

“After discovering I had mold throughout my house I contacted EnviroPure. Prior to the treatment Ronald Payne (owner) came to my home & thoroughly explained the entire process of the mold removal dry fog vapor treatment. He was professional & personable. I chose EnviroPure over several other companies. Ronald & Jake Payne did a thorough job removing the mold from my home. I left home for 6 hours as requested & upon my return I could tell that the air was cleaner & fresher with a slight vinegar aroma which dissipated. I just referred a family member & a friend for their services.”
“Absolutely phenomenal company. They took amazing care of our house finding the issue and resolving it. They communicated well with everything that was going on, and their pricing was very reasonable. Hopefully we don’t have to deal with mold again, but if we do we’ll be calling Ron again!”
“We experienced minor water damage from a small leak, but unfortunately, our insurance declined coverage. Several large remediation companies provided quotes that seemed excessive given the scale of the issue. Based on our realtor’s recommendation, we reached out to EnviroPure, and we’re glad we did. Ron appears to be very knowledgeable and answered all our questions and addressed any concerns we had. He is responsive, and completed the work exactly as discussed. So far, everything looks great, and the solution appears to be both cost-effective and appropriate for the scope of the problem. I plan to update this review in a year, but for now, I’m very satisfied with the results and appreciate the savings and straightforward approach.”
“I had a doubt about having mold in our home. I contacted enviropure for inspection and they were quick to setup an appointment for free inspection even after I mentioned it's just a doubt. They willingly drive almost an hour to come to our home, checked it out and clear all our doubts. They suggested few things to take care as well. They couldn't find any mold so we haven't used their mold removal service but we are happy with their professionalism. Their client first approach was evident in their communication and honesty in their service. We for sure recommend their service.”
“This is a great company and very easy to deal with. They fully explained their treatment procedure, guarantee and payment methods upfront. Their price was a fraction of the cost of traditional mold removal methods and was quick and painless. Plus we didn't have to schedule weeks in advance! We'd definitely recommend them to friends and family in need of mold removal!”
We cover the whole attic, including the corners you can't see from the hatch:
We take moisture readings across the sheathing and framing and compare them with dry areas of the same attic. Dry wood under an old stain usually means a leak that has already been fixed. Damp wood beside fresh growth means the source is still active and needs a repair before any treatment.
Ventilation shows in the readings too. An attic far more humid than the outdoor air on a dry winter day is taking in house air from the rooms below.
Where the readings can't tell an old patch from a live one, we take a tape sample from the wood and an air sample in the attic.
Reagan National averages 13.7 inches of snow a year in NOAA's 1991 to 2020 normals. When snow sits on your roof, look at it from the street. Patches that melt days before the rest of the roof can show where warm house air is reaching the sheathing, and those are the slopes we check most closely.
Take a photo if you see it, since the snow will be gone by the time we visit, and the picture tells us where to start.
Samples go to an accredited third-party lab with no affiliation to EnviroPure. Air and tape results usually come back in 2 to 3 business days.
The report gives the spore count per cubic meter and the genus of what was found, compared against outdoor and baseline samples. It is written in plain language with clear next steps, and it is yours to keep.
The consultation and visual inspection are free, and when the inspection confirms visible mold, you get an estimate.

Soffit vents buried under blown-in insulation and a ridge vent blocked at the ends both cut it down, and we note each one we find.
Air samples from the living space and from outdoors can sit beside the attic sample, so you see how the attic compares with the rooms you live in.
No. Book when you see the problem and tell us which season it showed up in. Winter is when condensation on the roof deck is easiest to see, and moisture readings work in any month.
From the hatch, yes: a flashlight and a photo of what you see help us plan the visit. If you climb in, stay on the joists, because the ceiling drywall between them isn't built to hold your weight.
We part it in a few places to check the framing and the top of the ceiling drywall, then lay it back. Any insulation that has to come out for a repair is a job for the contractor doing that repair.
Tell us what you're seeing and where. We'll explain the likely next step and what it would involve, including EnviroPure services, availability and pricing.
