Good to know

How can I tell if a ceiling stain in my Columbia home has mold behind it?
A musty odor, a stain that continues to grow, or soft, spongy drywall are indicators that mold growth may have started behind the ceiling.
Can mold remediation wait until after the roof is repaired?
It is recommended to have the moisture assessed promptly. Waiting allows mold more time to spread through insulation and wood framing.
