Gutter Mold Problems
Q.
My house in San Francisco had a gutter that fed into a vertical pipe within
the wall. The pipe rusted, and for probably more than a decade, all the
water collected by the gutter ran into the area between the sheathing and
the drywall. There is visible mold for four feet on one side of the corner
and more than six feet on the other side. However, only the sheathing on
about two feet on each side seems to have been structurally damaged. Do we
need to replace all the wood with visible mold, or can we replace only
structurally damaged wood and treat the mold on the undamaged wood?
Similarly, water leaking past a door sill has damaged the joist closest to
the foundation. We have removed the part of the joist that is readily
accessible. Do we have to remove all damaged wood, or can we treat the
remaining, relatively inaccessible, joist? Or, once the defective sill has
been replaced, will the joist continue to disintegrate, or can it safely be
left in place? [December 13, 2004]
