How do I know if a leak caused mold?
A musty smell near a fixture, a discolored cabinet back, or a soft subfloor near a sink or toilet are the usual signs growth has started.
Can mold grow from a leak we already fixed?
Yes. If the cavity stayed wet long enough before the repair, growth can already be underway even though the leak itself is gone.

It depends how far the water traveled, but most single-fixture leaks are contained, removed and dried within a few days.

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Troy home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Should I fix the leak myself before calling?
Shutting off water to the fixture helps limit the damage. Leave the moldy material untouched so the technician can assess it before cleanup starts.
