Why Media Homes Get Mold
Mold thrives when moisture and humidity levels are high, and Media’s older homes often provide the perfect environment. Here are some common issues that make your home more susceptible:
🌧️ Runoff toward foundation on sloped lots – water that collects around the foundation can easily seep into basements.
🧱 Stone/block foundations that wick moisture from the ground, creating a constant source of dampness.
💨 Attics without proper baffles → allowing moisture-laden air to condense in colder months, promoting mold growth.
🚿 Bath/dryer vents venting into attics or crawl spaces, causing high humidity and moisture buildup (a common problem in older homes).
These factors combine to create the perfect breeding ground for mold, leading to persistent odors, health issues, and even structural damage if left untreated.
