Mold Growth

Air leaking in and out of a building carries moisture. If that water vapour collects on surfaces inside a wall, floor or roof system, there's bound to be mold growth. And mold is terrible for your health!

Why does mold growth happen?

  • Mold spores like warm, moist air.
  • When moist air condenses on cool surfaces, mold can start growing
  • Mold needs an organic base to grow on, like dust, wood, building paper, etc..
  • Poorly ventilated spaces allow excess moisture which allows mold to grow and flourish.
