Wall & Drywall Mold Removal in Kirkwood, MO: common questions
Can mold on drywall be painted over?
No. Paint seals in mold without addressing growth inside the drywall paper, often leading to recurrence and further spread.

The removal process is similar, but the cause often differs: condensation for exterior walls, plumbing leaks for interior walls.
What if mold is on the wall studs?
Light surface mold on studs can typically be cleaned and treated. If damage is deeper, options are discussed before the wall is closed.
