What causes crawl space mold in NJ?

Crawl spaces South Jersey homes and properties can be the ideal environment for mold development. With South Jersey’s high water table and close proximity to the shore, local crawl spaces often become moldy if the right moisture controls are not implemented. Some of the most common crawl space issues that cause mold include: high humidity, ground water vapors, ground seepage, flooding, leaky foundation walls, poor air circulation and condensation. Unfortunately, crawl spaces are not always easily accessible for homeowners to conduct routine maintenance checks, homeowners might not even know about the problem until the odors have permeated through to the main living space.

Here are some common problems that can leave your crawl space vulnerable to a mold contamination:

• High humidity – over 55%
• Undersized wall vents
• Insufficient air circulation
• Flooding
• Seepage
• Leaks/backups
• Dirt or sand floors- emit moisture/water vapors

Can Crawl Space Mold Make Me Sick?

Potentially. Mold exposure can have adverse health effects on you and your family. The severity of the symptoms will vary depending on the individual. Mold effects each individual differently. Reactions can range from mild allergic reactions to severe upper respiratory issues.  It all depends on the individual, the species of mold, the length of exposure, and several other factors.

The nature of mold allows spores to travel virtually anywhere and colonize any surface. Even if the majority of the mold contamination is seemingly isolated to the crawl space, mold spores can travel and permeated through to clean, unaffected areas of your home without notice. If you detect signs of mold development, you should consider contacting a certified mold professional to have your home assessed.
