I opened up the two nailed ply boards on top. They had mold spores between them from leaking water. Some wood was lightly moldy, nails were corroded. The middle wood was split by a nail and broke.
Should I clean and replace this myself, I got no prior experience, or leave this to a handyman?
Any suggestions for diy Wall repair and building the frame back?
A side wall has a hole on one now where some black mold can be seen. I am concerned if there could be more mold behind either of the side walls. 😕
I am confident to nail some wood and cut plywood together but is there any thing to watch out for? I can measure and heard from someone that Home Depot can cut the 2*4 as instructed.

Hi My water heater broke down. Plumber refused to put in the replacement cause the base was slanting and it wouldn’t stand up to inspection.
