The wonderful sight that greeted me when we arrived at the cottage earlier this summer. It was not a surprise however, as the area (Eastern Ontario) had significant winter snow accumulation, a fast melt off in early spring, followed by numerous significant rainfall events, and my brother in law had been buy trying to dry it out.
All the lower batts of fiberglass pink had soaked up water and collapsed to the bottom of the wall, and were removed, along with all the vapour barrier and framing, and anything else that had gotten wet. It appears from the wet brick the total saturated water level got halfway up the third course of blocks.
Another view of the mold at the bottom of the stairs.
