Humidity and mold growth

South Carolina's humid seasons make mold a common follow-on to any leak. The EPA recommends keeping indoor relative humidity below 60 percent, ideally between 30 and 50 percent, which usually takes dehumidification and good ventilation.

Mold after storms and flooding

After storms and flooding in South Carolina, 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.

Crawl space mold

Crawl spaces common in South Carolina trap humid air under the house. Vapor barriers, drainage, and sometimes dehumidification are part of keeping mold from returning.

Recent history in South Carolina

Hurricane Hugo in 1989 caused extensive damage around Charleston. Record rainfall in October 2015 caused widespread flooding in the Columbia area. Events like these are why crawl space mold removal needs fast, thorough work and careful documentation for insurance.
