If you’ve noticed a musty smell, peeling paint, or dark streaks along your basement walls, you may be dealing with mold. Here in West Chester, our humid summers and frequent rain make basements the perfect breeding ground for it.
Whether you live in a historic brick home or a newer development, basement mold is a serious problem — but one that can be solved permanently with professional remediation and waterproofing.

Why Mold Is So Common in West Chester Homes
West Chester’s older neighborhoods, tree-lined lots, and clay soil can trap moisture against foundations. Over time, that moisture leads to mold growth.
Common triggers include:
💧 Leaks or cracks in basement walls
🌧 Rainwater pooling near the foundation
🚰 Leaky pipes or sump pump overflow
🌫 Poor air circulation or high humidity
🧱 Aging waterproofing systems
Even a little moisture can trigger mold growth in as little as 48 hours.
