Hello forum,
I have water damage on the living room ceiling caused by a piece of facade that was not properly sealed. Rainwater got in. The cause has been fixed. However, the construction company (a developer) simply re-mortared the spot, even though black mold was visible on the insulation. Is the mold dangerous or problematic? The company says it's okay because there is only a little and it's only on the outside of the insulation. Is that true, or should I have the insulation replaced?
Attached is a picture of the mold and the insulation.
