About
Us
VentMASTER was established in 1990 to inspect
and provide ventilation solutions for problem attics. We began
venting attics mainly for excess heat and ice dams, but as the
need has grown, we have since expanded our services to include
removing moisture from homes. This moisture commonly causes
mold to form in attics. Our services are recommended by a number
of Microbiologists and mold remediation companies (a list is
available upon request). We provide our customers with cutting
edge attic ventilation techniques through up to date research,
contact with ventilation product manufacturers, ventilation
seminars and product research.
We deliver attic ventilation presentations
to a wide variety of industry and consumer groups and associations
throughout the New England area. We have hundreds of satisfied
customers, with references available upon request.
VentMASTER does not perform mold testing or
mold remediation services. However, we can recommend several
excellent companies that have long records of mold testing and
remediation services.
