I want to ask what you think about the seriousness of mold. I know it is a big deal these days. People charging thousands and dressing all up in Hazmat outfits with respirators to take out a wet wall. I am not sure that most of the time it warrents all of that caution.
We have plumbing leaks that still need to be repaired. My bathroom has a couple of feet of wet 2x4's that I could replace, they look pretty moist. The next project will involve tons of what looks like mold on dry wall, wood cupboards etc. Our plan was to be cautious, protect ourselves and the rest of the house. But we are not sure those zillions of dollars should be spent on mold guys.
We think we may buy one of those really good air cleaners to use, Hippa filters on vacuums etc. But Hazmat teams? You guys have been doing this for hundreds of years collectively- What do you think?
