I was building an additional bathroom and bedroom for my restaurant owner main family to use if they need to remain overnight at one of their restaurants.

However, when I used the wall tool and tried to press escape when I was done, it would not disappear and began to draw more walls where they didn't belong.  I used the undo button.  Then, the same thing happened with doors, paint, among other build mode issues.  This problem began tonight.  I do not have a dance floor.

I did check to ensure that I hadn't forgotten to turn off MOO, but that wasn't the cause of the problem.

Did you try choosing a new tool to switch away from the wall tool or current build tool you were using?

No, I didn't try that.  So, if I just click on the wall tool and have a problem, will the wall tool stop making random walls if I click, for instance, floors?  That would certainly solve the problem.

Yes it should. I did a play-test with the house I've built in Sims 4 and didn't have any problems with creating walls, placing floors and wall coverings.

Thanks for play-testing MrsFlynn.  I've never had a problem like this with building before, that's why I was wondering what was going on.
