Basement mold removal and remediation in Denver, CO
As you know, basements provide the best living conditions for fungus to thrive in the house. Basements are dark and temperate areas, have poor to none ventilation and of course much more elevated humidity than entire house.
In no time, all of that could become a mold problem, which later will escalate to the health issues and of course in structure deterioration as well. Any mold in the house can cause serious health problems, but one of worse and the most dangerous is Stachybotrys Chartarum (black mold).
Finished or unfinished basement, any area that has elevated moisture and insufficient ventilation will be good breeding ground for mold. Our houses are built on high cellulose and low nitrogen materials as wood, paper, fiber or gypsum board and that is where all it starts.

What causes basement mold?
Basements normally have a higher level of humidity and poor to almost none ventilation. Foundation and other leaks, even the smallest ones could contribute a lot and in many cases that is how it begins. Foundation cracks, if not noticed on time, could get the rainwater into the house and that would be a fuel for mold to bloom. In finished basements pretty much impossible to know if you have moisture entrapped inside the wall until it’s too late. And if you see it on the surface already, normally that means that problem is pretty far advanced and will be more, much more inside of the wall.
