Hi, I am currently having a 12cm layer of a light straw/clay insulation put around the inside of my exterior wall in a new house. The exterior wall is made of the hollow baked clay bricks common in Spain/Portugal. I went down recently and all the walls that have been done are completely covered in black mould. This worries me a lot as I am very allergic to black mould and as I was only intending to cap with a permeable clay or lime layer, I do not want it coming through and being forever in my house. I already have a terrible chest just from working in the house for a couple of days. All the research I've done seems to say that this kind of inslation should suppress mould not cause it!
Do I need to have it all pulled off again? It would be better for me to have it taken off now whilst only half done than paying to have it all done and then finding it is forever mouldy behind cupboards and in the kitchen/bathroom etc.
I'd really appreciate advice from people with experience.
