Stay Dry Waterproofing, LLC specializes in Waterproofing Basements, foundation settlement repairs, and mold testing and removal. We use patented, safe and proven methods of repair.

"They are overpriced, did not take proper precautions to protect our carpet, promised us professional carpet cleaning, then sent out two of their guys with rags and a shop vac to “clean” the carpets. Then we were told it’s not policy to send out carpet cleaners, and that we’re on our own. We were promised 4 different things involving quality of the project, none were done. This place is a total scam, and has SERIOUS communication and misinformation issues internally. Would never use them again. All they did was open up walls, spray some stuff, made a mess, and left us to handle any problems stemming from their lack of attention to detail, and crappy policies."

"Every aspect of this project was easily the best experience we have had with a major project and contractor. Our initial contact and project manager, Colby, was a pleasure to work with, wanted to know what we wanted, provided useful and helpful advice, did not try to steer us where we didn't want to go, was straight with us on what he could and couldn't do, and together we came up with a plan that fit our needs and budget for both roofing (already completed) and siding (materials ordered and on the horizon). For the project we had in mind we felt the price was reasonable. Anthony, the on-site project manager, was very professional and followed up quickly to clear up a couple of minor issues we noticed. The roofing crew did their job and everything was cleaned up. It was a two day job, but even after the first day the yard was cleaned up and everything neatly put away. We haven't found any nails in our yard which was important with dogs in the yard. Everything was hauled away and no trace they were here other than our beautiful new roof! We are definitely happy customers and enthusiastically recommend American Way Exteriors to others."

Mold Testing and Remediation questions, answered by experts

Mold can grow anywhere in your home where there’s moisture that doesn’t dry out, usually in areas that are either not ventilated properly or where moisture gathers continuously. Insulation, drywall, and foundations typically provide mold with areas to grow if moisture is present and does not have a chance to dry out. Some of the most common areas in a home for mold growth include:

  • Attic

  • Walls

  • Bathroom

  • Crawlspace

  • Basement

Yes, limewash is free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Made of lime and water, it is eco-friendly, breathable, and toxin-free. Most synthetic paints have low to high levels of VOCs, which causes their irritating odor, which can have adverse and long-term effects on your health. Conversely, limewash consists of crushed limestone, which undergoes burning, mixing, and aging before being diluted with water—natural pigments add coloration.

Mold can grow quickly in wet carpet: in as little as 12 to 24 hours. That’s why it is crucial to take action immediately if there’s any sign of water damage under your floor. Remove as much water as possible with a shop vac and towels, then use baking soda to help remove moisture deep in the fibers. Always steam clean the carpet or use an antibacterial carpet sanitizer to kill any mold growth.

Water damage doesn’t always cause mold and wood rot, but it can. Both mold and wood rot require moisture in the wood to form, so water damage that continues to leave water or moisture behind can lead to both issues. Water damage and mold often go hand-in-hand, but you can prevent mold growth after water damage by addressing the source of moisture and drying out the area quickly. The same goes for wood rot. The longer you let water damage go, the higher the risk of mold and rot.

Touching toxic mushrooms will generally not cause harm unless you consume them. It's important to thoroughly wash hands after handling any type of mushroom to prevent accidental ingestion.
