MATERIAL GUIDE
Mold on Wood
Wood can support mold when moisture remains elevated. The right response depends on whether the growth is superficial, how wet the wood became and whether the source of moisture is still active.
Drying is central
Wood that stays damp can continue to support growth. Leak correction, airflow, dehumidification or other moisture-control measures may be needed.
Structural concerns are separate
Mold growth and structural damage are not the same thing. If wood is soft, decayed or otherwise damaged, a qualified building professional may need to assess the material itself.
