Direct answer
Stop the moisture source and assess the affected assembly before patching it closed. Wet gypsum, insulation, framing, and cavities can support mold or lose structural integrity; cosmetic compound and paint do not solve the cause. EPA homeowner guidance emphasizes drying wet materials within roughly 24 to 48 hours when possible and removing materials that cannot be cleaned or dried appropriately. The response depends on the source, affected area, duration, occupants, and hidden conditions.
A drywall contractor should not represent a patch as mold remediation unless appropriately qualified for that scope. Plumbing, roofing, HVAC, electrical, or remediation specialists may need to act first. See the EPA's current homeowner guide, A Brief Guide to Mold, Moisture and Your Home.
