Attic mold removal questions
Do I need a permit for repairs in Anaheim?
Cleanup and drying don't. Structural, plumbing and electrical repairs need permits from the City of Anaheim Building Division.
Is a slab leak covered by insurance in Anaheim?
Many policies cover the water damage and access costs from a sudden slab leak, but not the pipe repair itself.
Is attic mold a deal-breaker when selling a house?
Not usually, if it's remediated and the cause is fixed with documentation. Buyers mainly want proof it was handled correctly.
