Basement Waterproofing in Greenville, KY

A basement in Evansville, IN needed waterproofing, done to their basement when the homeowner began to have aggravated allergies and found that it could be from the basement. The bottoms of the basement walls consisted of mold spores and small water puddles on the ground. The humidity and dampness of the basement had created a thriving environment for the mold to grow, but a nightmare for the homeowner. Some mold spores produce a chemical byproduct called mycotoxins. This is a type species of mold that will compete for space with other species and in return, create chemical warfare on other molds. Having mycotoxins exist in your own home can affect your respiratory system.

Although you can not see the spores, they will leave a musty smell. To remove any mold from the basement, it has to go through mold remediation. Any mold spots are scrubbed and sprayed thoroughly. After mold remediation is completed, the homeowners have a choice as to whether or not they want annual maintenance done to monitor the area. The basement was waterproofed using CleanSpace, which will protect the vapor barrier. A WaterGuard system and TripleSafe sump pump are put in to guarantee that no water would be entering the basement. With a mold-free, water-free basement, it thrilled the homeowner to know that their health would not be at risk.
