In what order to mold refurbish bare frame floor walls and ceiling?
30m2 house/room. Unoccupied for 40 years with vapor barrier and 70/80s insulation. 20 cm of 15-year-old loose-fill insulation above the vapor barrier in the ceiling. Should this also be replaced? I also want to saw up the floorboards and replace the insulation in the floor joists and walls.
The question is in what order to minimize the spread of potential mold spores. Considering both the demolition and rebuilding order of the floor, walls, and ceiling. Started with an ozoneair treatment and will do another before removing the vapor barrier.

Is everything moldy or what? You replace what's bad and make sure the moisture problem is gone so it doesn't mold again. You can't eradicate mold spores, they're in the air around us all the time. Anything that might be affected in the house and remains will die out and become just cosmetic. It's not rabies we're talking about.
Scent-sensitive person with infection and allergy issues moving in. Hence, gutted to the frame. Considering the order of roof-walls-floor during demolition, then removing the metal facade and insulation outside the barrier. Lastly, I'll take the moisture barrier. Reconstruction: External insulation, New floorboards. Moisture barrier for walls and ceiling. Then 45mm installation layer insulation in walls, and finally the ceiling. What do you think?S Stefan1972 said:Is everything moldy or what? You just replace what's bad and ensure the moisture problem is addressed so it doesn't mold again.

It's not rabies we're dealing with.
