i have found some black mold on a basement wall…suggestions for getting rid of it? i have already tried bleaching it.
ok, what kind of professional comes to your home and rids the wall of the mold??

At Christmas last year the bank forclosed on my neighbor’s home (two houses down). We had an early thaw and because the pipes had froze they burst. This caused a TON of water damage and this spring mold. Mold everywhere!! It’s growing up and down (and all around I’m sure) the walls. Nothing visible outside yet.

My concern is that I’m pregnant and have a 14 month old son. I’m worried about our exposure. This mold is dangerous and can go airborn, just a matter of time.

The EPA is no help. I have contacted the Health Department but am getting no where. The realty company that bought the house is selling “as is” and has no plans to get rid of the mold.

With kids playing by the house (it’s a cul-de-sac) what recourse do I have? We have an active home owner’s board – do they have recourse also?

Thanks in advance!
