What was hiding behind this bathroom cabinet?
Once the cabinetry was removed, mold growth was clearly visible across the back of the cabinet and the wall behind it.
Bathrooms naturally see a lot of moisture, but mold growth like this typically points to a moisture source that has been present long enough to affect the surrounding materials. The challenge with cabinetry is that these areas are enclosed and rarely inspected, allowing a problem to develop well before a homeowner knows it's there.
This is why we focus on more than what can be seen from the surface. Finding the moisture source and determining how far the damage extends are important parts of properly addressing the problem.
