Wood Siding
Mould
[Jan. 10, 2003]
Q.
I
have a Cedar wood siding black mould problem. I live in the forested hills
on a Southwestern exposure lot. I use a semi-transparent stain over Cedar.
Every year I bleach

Cedar wood siding with exterior mould growth.
|
the
mould in early spring. Every few years I stain
it. I've been told that the bleach does not kill the mould. Do you
have a permanent solution?
A.
Your first step is to have a
Certified
Mould Inspector: (1) use a
fiber optics inspection device to inspect: INSIDE your exterior wall
cavities for mould infestation; (2) take core mould samples of the
entire thickness of the
siding; and (3) test
the air of your indoor rooms for the possible presence of high levels of
unhealthy mould spores. If mould
problems are not found in those 3 areas, then your mould problem is
probably confined to mould growth on the outside of your cedar siding, and
it can be dealt with by several wet sprayings of
Mould
Killer. If mould is
growing INSIDE your siding, it will need to be replaced. Either way,
seal the exterior after staining with a plastic coating spray to seal
out moisture that is needed for mould growth.
Inspect and test your home or
other real estate for mould problems
with a
Certified
Mould Inspector.
Train and be
certified
as a
Certified Mould Inspector & Certified Mould Remediator.
