Basement Mold Removal

Why Do You Have Mold in Your NJ Basement?

South Jersey basements can be the ideal breeding grounds for mold. Excess moisture is one of the main causes for moldy basements – usually from high humidity or water leakage into the basement. Here are some of the more common causes for mold in your basements:

• High humidity – over 55%
• Water leaking or seeping through foundation walls
• Flooding
• Poor air circulation
• Condensation from ducts

The key to mold prevention is getting that moisture under control. If your basement suffers from any of the above moisture issues, it is important correct those issues as soon as possible.

Can Basement Mold Make Me and My Family Sick?

Yes. Some people may have stronger reactions to basement mold than others. This reaction depends on your immune systems, the length of time of exposure and several other factors, but many mold species can negatively affect everyone – even healthy adults. Since many NJ basements contain HVAC components like air handlers and duct work, much of the air from your basement is circulated throughout the entire home. This is why we recommend a thorough duct cleaning with an antimicrobial after or as part of every basement mold removal in NJ.

Basement Mold Inspections Process NJ

If you suspect damp conditions in your basement have contributed to mold development, you should contact us today. A trained and certified Mastertech mold inspector in Southern NJ can conduct a thorough basement mold inspection and get to the bottom of the problem.

Visual Assessment – Your Mastertech Inspector will complete a comprehensive visual analysis to determine any conditions that could stimulate mold growth in your basement. We will provide you thorough digital documentation for your records.

Moisture Mapping – Your inspector will carefully map out the damp or wet areas of your basement to determine where water or moisture could be getting in.

Moisture Meters – Moisture meters allow us to read the moisture content of building materials in your basement. Moisture locked within porous building materials like foundation walls can go unnoticed for a long time.

Thermal Imaging – Your mold inspector will be taking advantage of the temperature difference between wet and dry materials. Thermal imaging will allow your inspector to clearly identify all wet areas and paint a picture of the mold spread.

Basement Mold Testing – Surface and/or air quality tests will provide scientific data that will confirm or deny the presence of mold. If mold is confirmed in your basement, the test results will help your inspector figure out the most appropriate course of action to resolve the mold issue.

Report of Findings – After completing your basement mold inspection in NJ, your inspector will compile a clear and concise report that outlines all his/her findings. If deemed necessary, your inspector will present you with a detailed scope of work for a safe and effective basement mold removal.
