Mold update.....appears all clear!

The mold situation appears to be taken care of. Julie found the mold when tearing down wall paper. An ice dam on the roof was causing water to back up under the shingles, ultimately running down in the walls and saturating the drywall. Not ideal.

I removed the damaged and moldy wall sections and let it air out. A few hours on the roof with a hammer as well and the ice dam was gone. After a few days of letting the wall air out, it was repaired and the air tested for mold spores (just to be safe). Test was free of mold.

The kids and Julie had a lot of respiratory problems with the mop and when the wall was opened up. With it dried, cleaned and closed up, they are doing much better.

Now, we are just waiting until the rest of the kitchen wallpaper is down so we can repaint the entire room. Then on to the next project.
