Musty Smells in Your Bellevue Basement?

That’s a Sure Sign of Water Damage

Are you tired of the musty basement smells in your Bellevue home? Do you find it hard to spend time in your basement because of the unpleasant odor? If yes, then you’ve come to the right place. At Matvey Foundation Repair, our Bellevue basement waterproofing team has the solutions you need to rid your basement of those musty smells once and for all!

Musty smells in basements are often caused by mold and mildew. Mold and mildew thrive in damp, humid environments, and the basement is an ideal place for them to grow. Basements are often dark, damp, and poorly ventilated, making them perfect breeding grounds for mold and mildew. Water damage, due to flooding, leaks, or high humidity levels, can create the perfect moisture levels for this growth to happen. When it comes to moisture or humidity-related odors, the longer you ignore the problem, the worse it will get!

At Matvey Foundation Repair, we understand the importance of having a dry and odor-free basement. We have been providing basement waterproofing services to homeowners in the area for over two decades, and we have the expertise to help you get rid of the musty basement smell in your Bellevue home for good. We can come out to your home, identify the source of the smell, and create a customized plan to not only clean up the odor but also prevent the underlying issues that are causing it. 

You may not be able to see the mold and mildew causing the musty basement smells in your Bellevue home, but that doesn’t mean it’s not there! In many of the homes we’ve worked on in Bellevue, we’ve found mold hiding under floors, behind walls, and in small corners. Remember that moisture can leach through the tiniest holes and can quickly cause harm to your home. And even if you do find the source of the smell, water damage cleanup is best left to the experts! Don’t attempt to tackle this yourself and end up putting your home and your health at risk.
