If mold is growing on an exterior wall or ceiling, first look for a leak in the wall or roof. Measure from the moldy area to a reference point like a door, then find the spot on the other side of the wall or ceiling. Closely inspect nearby vents, roof flashing, decks, window wells and anywhere wood is rotting. Look for ground sloping toward the house and downspouts emptying next to the wall. If the ground around the house gets too wet, moisture will wick into the foundation or slab and become persistent dampness.
I really enjoyed reading your post and the images that you have used are too good. Like you list, I need to do this in my home. I think one of the hardest things to do is pull out mold, mildew and gunk from in between the tiles in the bathroom.
