How Excessive rain fuels mold growth.

Spring downpours can overwhelm your home’s defenses, leading to water infiltration and damp environments where mold thrives. Here’s how:

• Basement Flooding: Heavy rain can seep into basements through cracks or poor drainage, creating persistent moisture.
• Leaky Roofs and Gutters: Clogged gutters or damaged roofing allow water to pool and penetrate interior spaces.
• Poor Ventilation: High humidity from rain, combined with inadequate airflow, fosters mold in attics, crawlspaces, and bathrooms.
• Foundation Issues: Saturated soil around your home’s foundation can lead to cracks, letting water in and trapping moisture.

Mold can start growing within 24-48 hours of water exposure, and in New England’s humid spring climate, it spreads quickly. Left unchecked, it can damage walls, floors, and furniture while causing respiratory issues or allergies.
