Mold growth in your basement or crawl space is a common problem that can lead to home damage and health issues. For mold to grow, two factors must be present: moisture and humidity.

Think you may have a mold problem in your basement or crawl space? Here are some common symptoms to watch out for:

• Sloping or sagging floors
• Musty odors in your home

Install a Dehumidifier

One of the first issues you’ll need to address is the humidity in your basement or crawl space. You can easily correct this with a dehumidifier. If you don’t already have this type of device, we can install a Humidex humidity control and ventilation unit that’s excellent at giving you better control over the humidity and ventilation in your basement or crawl space.

Check Your Sump Pump

At least once per year, the inspection and maintenance of your sump pump will keep it in good operating condition. Our basement waterproofing contractors in Portsmouth, Dover, Barrington & Durham, NH offer sump pump installation services if you don’t already have a functioning unit. This device effectively pumps water out of your basement to reduce the likelihood of water damage and mold growth. We can also install a battery backup to make sure your sump pump is operational when you really need it.
