Failed washer hoses, water heaters or ice maker lines cause leaks that grow mold if not dried.

Poor attic airflow traps warm, damp air, which condenses on cold sheathing and grows mold.

Plumbing Leaks Inside Walls

A slow pipe leak inside a wall keeps the cavity damp, and mold grows there unseen.
