A Practical Way to Think About Mold
Indoor mold problems are fundamentally moisture problems. The useful questions are where the moisture came from, which materials were affected, whether the area is still damp, and what cleanup or removal is appropriate.
Moisture source
Leaks, water intrusion, condensation, humidity, or another moisture condition should be corrected so cleanup is not treating only the visible symptom.
Affected materials
Hard and nonporous surfaces may sometimes be cleanable, while porous materials can be more difficult to restore depending on the extent of growth and water damage.
Extent of the problem
Visible mold does not always show what may be behind drywall, under flooring, above ceilings, or inside other concealed areas.
Safe work practices
The size, location, and complexity of the problem influence appropriate containment, protective equipment, cleanup, and disposal methods.
