Got Mold? Remove the Water |
Aug. 14, 2007
Like Birds of a Feather – the 2 go together. BUT you can have one without the other!
If you have Mold you probably have a water problem somewhere in the basement feeding the growth of the mold spores. Get rid of the water problem first and the mold will stop growing and can be removed by a Mold Specialist if the situation is serious enough to warrant professional assistance, as usually is the case when water problems have been left untreated for extended periods of time.
You can have a water problem without having a Mold problem, especially when treated early and when water has not been sitting for extended periods of time.
It’s much cheaper to remove water problems than mold problems. It’s much cheaper yet to remove water problems in their early stages before they become total basement problems.
Basement Waterproofers can remove the Mold water sources relatively inexpensively, especially if they are capable of performing various outside solutions – not just inside French Drain installations, which only solve hydrostatic water pressure problems. Many Mold situations are caused by outside water sources.
Got water and think you have mold? Contact an experienced Basement Waterproofer and discuss the situation with him. There is no charge for an on site waterproofing inspection if required and experienced waterproofers know experienced mold specialists should they need to be brought into the process.
