Mold growth is often the result of a structural defect in a home or building, or of poor maintenance or neglect that allows moisture to enter the building. The owner or employer must first fix the water problem (roof leak, plumbing leak, high indoor humidity) that enables the mold to grow. Mold removal is useless until the moisture problem is rectified.
