Home in New Castle often face serious mold problems. High humidity can seep into older homes and cause dangerous mold growth.
If you’ve noticed musty odors, dark spots on walls, or allergy-like symptoms in your home, you may be dealing with mold. Mold in basements, crawl spaces, and attics is more than just a cosmetic issue — it can affect your health, weaken your home’s structure, and reduce your property value. Remember, mold will not go away by itself.
Mold in your basement, crawl space, or attic must be removed. And, not only that, you must destroy mold’s food source, and eliminate the reproductive spores. If not, these will float in the air, waiting to land on any moisture in your home. This will cause mold to regrow.
At Basement Waterproofing Specialists, we’ve been helping families in New Castle and throughout Delaware eliminate mold safely and permanently.
Why Mold Grows in Your Home
Mold thrives anywhere moisture lingers. In New Castle, humidity and seasonal rains make basements, crawl spaces, and attics especially vulnerable. Common causes include:
- 🌧️ Water leaks from foundation cracks or plumbing
- 💨 Poor ventilation in basements and attics
- 🌡️ High indoor humidity levels
- 🕳️ Damp crawl spaces with dirt floors
