We tried treating the mold with a bleach and water solution, which would seem to help, but the mold would always rebound. Eventually, even though the basement was dry, it was spreading to new surfaces! After finally facing the facts we are in the process of demo-ing out most of the basement.
Ross has been working on it a couple of hours here and there all month long, and he's my hero for doing it, but this has meant no heat! We didn't want to risk turning on the furnace and spreading nasty mold spores all through the house. Luckily he tells me that he is just about finished removing every mold tainted surface and we should have heat by Monday. Thank God!

Not good at all. Hope Ross gets it all out soon so you can get warm & toasty.
Damn, remember all those mouldy plaster board walls in Dundee? Pulling them out was a good move, then painting everything with Kilz, and adding a few light fixtures. What an improvement.
Love
