How to Stop Water Damage Mold

Any water leaks from pipes, taps, and roofs need to be blocked off

because building materials can become mold colonized as a result of

chronic exposure to moisture.


You need to increase the indoor air quality in your home by opening

windows and doors to improve the airflow, and using a fan in areas

where there are no windows to open. In kitchens, bathrooms and

washrooms where there is generally a high water usage (and so higher

humidity levels) it is advisable to install extractor fans.


Large solid pieces of furniture should not be placed flat against the

interior of an exterior wall - you should leave a gap of a couple of

inches so that the air can flow freely between the wall and the

furniture.
