Keep mold and mildew out of your basement

Does your basement have a small leak of water coming in through the wall, or does the basement windows have a small leak where water makes its way out?  Plumbing pipes have a small steady drip of water building up on the floor?  If this goes without the proper care your basement can start to have mildew growing.  Most home owners are not aware of the dangers of mildew and mold in the basement because if your not using it as a living space it goes without notice when it is used for storage.  Once mildew is present it must be cleaned properly and you must follow certain steps to keep it dry so that the mildew is not present again.  When dealing with mildew and mold you need to eliminate the spores.  Using a small amount of bleach mixed with water you can apply this to the areas.  Use caution and also wear a respirator so that you are not breathing in the fumes from the bleach.  The bleach mixed with water will not only eliminate the spores but it will help to remove the stains left over from the mildew and mold.  Here at M&D Power washing we have our own special cleaners that will eliminate the mildew and mold as well as the stains left behind.  We have cleaned many basements by spraying our solution on basement walls, floors and wood beams where the mildew has spread.  We also pressure wash concrete basement floors and remove the excess water.  Give us a call for a free estimate 260-413-3290 or visit our website at http://www.cleantheroof.com/
