Call Now (833) 502-4258Mold after flooding
Floodwater in Ohio 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 Ohio are prone to dampness from seepage and condensation, and finished basements hide mold behind drywall and under carpet.
- Groundwater seepage
- Past flooding
- Condensation on cold walls
- Poor ventilation
