If your basement smells musty or shows dark streaks on the walls, it’s time to act. In Old Forge, high groundwater, steep terrain, and older foundations make basements especially prone to moisture and mold. Consequently, many homeowners face recurring problems if the source isn’t addressed.
Why Mold Appears in Old Forge Basements
Mold develops wherever moisture is present. Typically, the main causes in Old Forge homes include:
💦 Seepage through concrete block or stone walls
🌧 Flooding or drainage issues after storms
🚰 Plumbing leaks or sump pump backups
🌫 Poor air flow and persistent humidity
🧱 Aging or missing waterproof coatings
Even the small leaks, if left untreated, can lead to mold growth in just 48 hours. Therefore, early detection and professional remediation are crucial.

At Basement Waterproofing Specialists, we don’t just remove mold — we address the root cause to prevent it from returning. Accordingly, our 5-step system ensures lasting protection:
1. Moisture inspection & air testing
2. Containment & filtration

4. Permanent waterproofing system installation
