If your basement smells musty, feels damp, or shows black or white mold, then it’s time to take action. Because Cumberland County experiences humid summers, clay-rich soil, and aging foundations, basements here are especially vulnerable to moisture — and consequently, mold.
Whether you live in Mechanicsburg, Camp Hill, or Carlisle, our team at Basement Waterproofing Specialists can remove mold safely — and prevent it from coming back.
Why Mold Is Common in Cumberland County Basements
Mold thrives in damp, enclosed spaces. Unfortunately, that describes many Pennsylvania basements. As a result, even minor leaks can lead to serious mold problems.
The most common causes include:
💧 Foundation leaks or cracks
🌧 Groundwater seepage after heavy rain
🚰 Leaky pipes or sump pump issues
🌫 Poor ventilation or trapped humidity
🧱 Outdated waterproofing systems
Because mold can start growing within 48 hours, early detection and treatment are essential to protect both your home and your family’s health.
Our Mold Remediation Process
At Basement Waterproofing Specialists, we don’t just remove mold — instead, we eliminate the moisture that allows it to grow. That’s why our 5-step process combines mold removal with permanent waterproofing:
Our 5-step process includes:
1. Inspection & Moisture Detection
2. Containment & Air Filtration
3. Safe Mold Removal & Antimicrobial Treatment
4. Permanent Waterproofing & Foundation Repair
5. Humidity Control for Ongoing Protection
Because we treat both the mold and the underlying moisture, your basement stays safe and dry.
