Mold after storms and flooding

After storms and flooding in New Jersey, mold can grow quickly on wet drywall, insulation, and carpet. The EPA advises drying materials within 24 to 48 hours and removing porous materials that cannot be dried.

Mold after flooding

Floodwater in New Jersey leaves materials soaked and contaminated. Porous materials that stayed wet are usually removed, because cleaning alone does not reliably stop mold inside them.

Damp basements

Basements in New Jersey are prone to dampness from seepage and condensation, and finished basements hide mold behind drywall and under carpet.

Recent history in New Jersey

Hurricane Sandy in 2012 caused severe storm surge flooding along the Jersey Shore. The remnants of Hurricane Ida in 2021 caused deadly flash flooding in northern New Jersey. Events like these are why attic mold remediation needs fast, thorough work and careful documentation for insurance.
