Corte Madera's bay-flat neighborhoods east of 101 are largely mid-century slab and crawlspace homes, and the town also has hillside houses on Christmas Tree Hill.
In the low-lying neighborhoods, a high water table and occasional flooding mean crawlspaces and slab edges can stay damp, and a lot of the mold work here follows water intrusion. Mid-century homes that were remodeled without updated bathroom ventilation often get mold on bathroom ceilings and in closets.
Moisture sources to check: slab edges and baseboards, crawlspace vents blocked by landscaping, and bathroom fans that vent into the attic instead of outside.
Is water still coming in? Drying it out fast comes first: see Marin water damage help. For general guidance, see the EPA's mold resources.
