If your home or commercial property has wet walls, or walls\nthat \u201csweat\u201d with condensation, then you may have a mold problem on your hands\nsooner than later. Mold grows in dark and moist environments; and since the\ninside of a wall is dark, when it\u2019s wet, the porous wall material turns into a\nmold incubator. Wallboards, plywood, drywall, and other wall surfaces are quite\nabsorbent, and can grow mold any time of year if it retains enough moisture.\nWet walls can be caused by several things, but mostly poor plumbing or leaky\npipes. It is important to have a plumbing contractor provide professional\ndiagnostics to determine the cause of your wet walls. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black Mold and Green Mold<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

One of the most common types of mold found growing in wet\nwalls is called Stachybotrys Chartarum<\/em>, or black mold, and has a\ngreenish-black hue. This is not your typical harmless bathroom mold you\u2019ve seen\na time or two in your life; this mold is toxic and can cause respiratory\ncomplications and illnesses after long-term exposure or inhalation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the case of black mold, or any other mold growth in wet\nwalls, it is crucial to outsource immediate mold removal and drywall\nreplacement services. Since mold is hazardous to our health, it is safer to\nhave a professional company remove moldy walls and mold growth, rather than\nattempting to do it yourself. Remember, the mold is not the only problem with\nwet walls, the water leak is also an issue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moldy wet walls will require drywall removal, drywall\nreplacement, mold removal, plumbing repairs, water leak diagnostics, and fresh\npaint. This seems like a lot for fixing wet walls, but there is a solution for\nthat too. Hiring a professional for mold remediation is the first step to\ndealing with a mold outbreak problem. From there, you must have your plumbing\nrepaired to ensure there are no other water leak or moisture risks in the future.\nThey will inspect the plumbing to determine what\u2019s causing the water or\nmoisture in your walls, and then implement the necessary remedies and repairs\nbefore moving forward with drywall demolition and replacement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
