David here with a reminder about humidity in the garage. ...

Let’s talk about mold.

Mold doesn’t just “appear.” It’s usually the result of interior moisture — leaks, condensation, poor ventilation, or high humidity.

If there’s moisture, mold will grow.
Musty smell? Staining on ceilings? Condensation on windows? Those are warning signs.

Mold is no joke.
If you have a moisture issue, deal with it.

Let’s talk about that white powder you sometimes see on concrete 👇

That chalky residue is called efflorescence. It happens when water moves through concrete or masonry, dissolves natural salts, and leaves them behind on the surface as it evaporates.
It’s usually not structural — but it is a sign that moisture is present. And moisture is what we pay attention to.

If you see it in your basement, garage, or on foundation walls, it’s worth understanding where the water is coming from.
