FAQs
 
  Q: What are some warning signs of a damp basement?  
  A: The following are all signs of a leaky basement:  
 
  • Musty odor
  • Mold & mildew
  • Cracked walls
  • White, chalky substances or damp spots on the walls
  • Peeling paint or warped wood
  • Dry rot or furniture damage
 
     
  Q: Why does my basement leak?  
  A: Basements leak for a variety of different reasons. Your problem may be a result of poor craftsmanship, rising water tables, foundation settlement, or capillary attraction. Only a trained and certified inspector can tell you for sure what is causing your water problem.  
     
  Q: Why does my basement smell musty?  
  A: Mold and fungus spores floating in your basement’s air and accumulating mildew cause musty odors. The spores can cause asthma and allergy problems, and should be dealt with properly in order to remove them from your home.  
     
  Q: What are the potential dangers of having mold in my basement?  
 

A: The link between mold and serious health effects has been widely studied, and there is no longer any question that mold causes respiratory problems, asthma, and allergic reactions. A Mayo Clinic study has shown that nearly all of chronic sinus infections are due to mold.

Other adverse heath symptoms that can be caused by mold include symptoms such as headaches, sore throat, and eye irritation. Young children, pregnant women, and the elderly are most at risk of the effects of mold.
