How to safely tear up the wood floor which has mold growing on the back of the wood and concrete slab? (Answers: 2) (Comments: 0)

The wood floor in our family room (20"x20") has numerous discolorated spots. We ripped up a couple of wood pieces and found mold growing on the back of the wood and on the concrete slab. Our plan is to cover up the air vent and contain the room with plastics from the rest of the house when we remove the wood floor. We want to somehow first kill the mold with diluted bleach before ripping up the wood floor. How can we get to the mold as the woods are still glued down to the concret slab?

We are moving into our first home and we are replacing the carpet in the living room with laminate wood flooring. The floor in the dining room is already laminate wood and joins up with the living room floor.

Would mismatching the wood look tacky?? Calling all interior designers! I need your help!
