• Plumbing Issues: Leaky pipes or faucets, especially in hidden areas, can lead to mold development.
• Poor Ventilation: Lack of proper ventilation in areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and basements can cause moisture to accumulate, leading to mold.
• Flooding: Any significant water damage, if not properly remediated, can result in mold growth.
• Condensation: Condensation on windows, pipes, or walls, often due to poor insulation, can create moist conditions favorable for mold.
