Contrary to popular belief, mold can indeed grow on redwood. While redwood contains natural compounds that resist decay, it's not entirely immune to mold growth under certain conditions.

Mold remediation is a comprehensive process that involves identifying mold-affected areas, containing the spread, removing contaminated materials, and treating the affected spaces to restore a healthy indoor environment.
