Just had a mold inspection done on our St. Louis home after noticing a musty smell in the basement. The inspector was thorough, checking crawl spaces and behind walls with moisture meters. Good thing too—found hidden black mold near an old pipe leak. If you're in St. Louis with its humid summers, definitely worth getting one before it spreads.

Heavy rain in St. Louis often turns basements into swimming pools, especially in older neighborhoods with combined sewer systems. If you've ever woken up to ankle-deep water and soggy boxes, you know the panic. It's not just the cleanup—it's the worry about mold and foundation damage. Many locals now check their sump pumps obsessively before a storm.

After a big storm in St. Louis, we had standing water in our basement for almost a day. The drying process took forever because of our old foundation and the humid air. It's been a week, and we still have damp spots on the drywall. The key was getting a dehumidifier running immediately and keeping airflow going with fans. Even with that, the wood studs felt wet to the touch for days. It's a real lesson in how St. Louis weather can slow things down.
