What indicates mold from a plumbing leak?

The moisture source is fixed first, not just the mold, then the structure is dried and rechecked. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Lowell home.

Should I fix the leak before scheduling mold remediation?

Stopping active water flow is recommended if possible. Avoid cleaning moldy areas before assessment to limit spore dispersal.
