Power loss after a major storm stops dehumidifiers and sump pumps, and mold can follow within days. Ground-level spaces near the bays stay damp for long stretches, which supports growth on framing and stored items. Flooded homes that were not dried quickly and completely often develop mold inside wall cavities.
That is why acting early matters in Mastic: mold spreads wherever moisture stays.
