Here's an excellent example of mold taking over in a shower. The mushrooms were removed by my customer numerous times and each time would grow back because of the constant moisture in areas where moisture shouldn't be.

Sealer won't do anything to fix the problem except hide it for awhile. It had to be ripped out and rebuilt. Hi Randy. The house is only about 4 years old. _________________________ Harry Dunbar
