Dark spots or the appearance of brown or black mold that are visible on the walls may indicate cracks or burst pipe in the wall. This may be a slow leak, but the damage is likely to become worse.
  3. Soft Moist Spots on the Floors, Walls or Ceiling. This might indicate that the microbial growth is present. Mold may not be visible yet, but it could be behind the drywall, on the supporting studs, beneath the floors, or in the attic of your home.
