carpet mold after leak

After a pipe burst last winter, I noticed a musty smell coming from the living room. Lifting the corner of the wool carpet revealed black mold creeping along the backing, spreading from the damp spot near the wall. The leak had soaked through the padding, creating a breeding ground for mildew that now requires professional extraction and replacement of the affected sections.
