If you notice a musty basement odor in your home, it’s likely caused from the growth of mold. Mold needs three things to grow and survive, which are: moisture, humidity, and organic materials to feed off of. So, if you have leaks in your basement, there’s going to be moisture and humidity. And for organic materials, the mold can feed off of paint, wallpaper, carpet, curtains, wood, and anything you may have stored in this area of your home. Sure, you might not have a finished basement, and you might not really ever go into this area of your home for anything since it’s dark and smelly. However, regardless of what you use your basement for, you still need to make sure that it is safe, dry, and healthy. After all, what happens in the basement of your home can have an influence on the rest of it, as well as your family’s health!
Mold Prevention and Removal
Mold prevention and removal isn’t really that complicated of a process. When you call us with this kind of problem, we will send a professional Basement Waterproofing tech to your home to investigate. He will be able to pinpoint how water is getting inside your home, and then he will be able to recommend the best and most affordable way to put a stop to the problem. We can install sump pumps, dehumidifiers, basement drains, and other humidity and moisture control products.
Often times, we see basement moisture getting in over the top of the foundation, through leaking window wells, or even through wall and floor cracks.
