In this episode of TORQUE & TAPE, the focus shifts from tools and fasteners to something far more deceptive: mold. Told entirely through lived experience, the episode places the listener beside a seasoned tradesman as he walks through a home that appears clean, finished, and safe—yet quietly signals a deeper problem. Rather than chasing fear or worst-case scenarios, the story teaches how professionals actually detect mold: by reading air, moisture, smell, sound, and subtle changes in materials long before damage becomes obvious.
The episode explains why mold is never the real problem, but a symptom of something else failing, and why rushing to clean or tear things out often makes the situation worse. With calm authority and real job-site wisdom, the narrator shows how to slow down, interpret what a house is telling you, and decide what truly needs to be done—and what doesn’t. The tone is steady, grounded, and empowering, replacing panic with judgment and confidence.
This is not about fear.
It’s about control, awareness, and learning how to see what most people miss.
