We had previously worked with another big name high priced waterproofing company and had a bad experience. We took a chance and went with D-Bug and we are so glad that we did. We had a much better experience with d-bug. They were on time, respectful, completed the job efficiently, and it looks great!
We highly recommend them.

D-Bug did a great job installing an interior french drain and sump pumps, an exterior french drain, and regrading around the house. I would recommend them to anyone with water problems. They sheeted everything off with plastic before getting started, and left the basement clean.

We had a pretty serious problem with a large and aging retaining wall on our property.  Initially, we had trouble finding a company who would even consider the job, until someone recommended D-Bug Waterproofing. They were very responsive from the very beginning about our concerns and budget, and explained the process and what to expect from idea to build. They did everything possible to find local, quality resources to help keep material costs to a minimum. They did the job in the timeframe they promised and repaired the lawn they said would get torn up from the heavy equipment. The wall looks great! We would definitely recommend D-Bug to anyone looking for a professional and hard-working team, especially for challenging projects.

Everyone that I talked to was great and they did an amazing job. They installed a sump pump in our basement that we desperately needed and I couldn't have asked for a better company to do the work. They did however break one of my decorations that I found the day after next to the sump pump that I was not notified about. It wasn't moved beforehand which is on my part, but it would have been nice to have been at least told about it.

D-Bug team did a fabulous job on my 73 year old basement! The 8 person team arrived on time and went straight to work. They worked hard for 8 hours and completed the job in one day. They caulked and sealed the entire rear wall that had been leaking, then installed a french drain system along the inside of the rear wall of the basement (by jack-hammering out the floor where necessary). The walls were then lined with a plastic sheeting material to direct any water that may come in through the walls to the french drain. They installed a sump pump which was connected to the french drain to pump water out of the house. The entire system was covered with concrete to complete the installation. They also repaired one outside wall that had begun to collapse inward with a steel I-beam and a connecting anchor rod to pull it back to it's original location.
They made sure that the area upstairs where they entered the basement was sealed off with plastic from floor to ceiling, the floor was protected both inside and outside. The team carried all the dirt and stone bucket by bucket outside the house to the waiting dump truck.
When they left, you could not even tell that they had been there! They were very professional and hardworking.
I would highly recommend D-Bug waterproofing to anyone needing a basement waterproofed.

Black mold is the worst.

Black mold, also known as Stachybotrys chartarum, is a danger to your home and to your health.

Symptoms can be as mild as a stuffy nose, congestion, and wheezing to skin and eye irritation, shortness of breath, fever, and even fungal infections of the lungs.

Mold Remediation

For children with asthma or the elderly suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the consequences of mold exposure could be severe.

Mold Remediation

Given enough time to grow undetected, mold attacks the wooden structural materials of your home, and can even weaken load bearing walls.

Signs You Have a Mold Problem

  • A musty smell that lingers, even after you clean
  • Dark or fuzzy spots on walls, wood, or stored boxes
  • Damp walls, sweating pipes, or water stains
  • Stuffy noses or coughs that seem worse at home

Why Mold Keeps Coming Back

Mold needs moisture to grow. Scrubbing it away without fixing the water source only buys time. We find where the moisture comes from, whether it is a leak, poor drainage, or damp air. Then we fix the cause with drainage, a Santa Fe dehumidifier, or an EZ Breathe ventilation system.

We get it done, and we get it done fast.

D-Bug has helped Western Pennsylvania families since 1980, and our own trained crews do every job. Start with a free mold inspection. Call 1-855-381-1528 or complete the form below.

Once your basement is mold-free, you may want to consider refinishing your basement for greater comfort and livability.

Frequently Asked Questions About Mold Remediation

What causes mold in a basement?
Mold needs moisture, and basements give it plenty. Water seeps through foundation cracks, condenses on cool walls, or lingers after a leak. In Western PA, heavy clay soil and freeze-thaw cycles push water inside, so basements stay damp. Mold spores are always in the air. They only need a wet surface to take hold and spread.
Is black mold in my basement dangerous?
Black mold can affect your health, especially with long exposure. Symptoms range from a stuffy nose and wheezing to eye irritation and shortness of breath. Children with asthma and older adults with lung conditions face the highest risk. Given time, mold also attacks wood framing and can weaken structural walls. So it threatens both your family and your home.
Can I remove basement mold myself, or should I hire a professional?
You can wipe small surface spots with soap and water. But that rarely solves the problem. Mold on a basement wall usually means moisture is still getting in, so it comes right back. Professionals find the moisture source, remove the mold safely, and treat the area so it does not return. For larger growth or any health concern, professional help is the safer choice.
How is professional mold remediation different from just cleaning mold?
Cleaning wipes mold off a surface. Remediation removes it and stops it from returning. Our crews first find where the water is coming from. We remove the mold, treat the surrounding materials, and dry the space with drainage or ventilation. The goal is a basement that stays mold-free, not one that looks clean for a month.
Will waterproofing my basement stop mold from coming back?
In most cases, yes. Mold needs moisture, so a dry basement gives it nowhere to grow. When we waterproof a basement, we manage the water with drainage and a sump pump, and we can add ventilation to lower humidity. That is why we often handle waterproofing and mold remediation together: fixing one protects against the other.
Why does basement mold get worse in summer?
Summer air holds more moisture. When that warm, humid air reaches your cool basement, it condenses on the walls and floor. That dampness feeds mold. Pittsburgh summers also bring heavy rain, which raises the water table and pushes moisture through foundations. So mold often spreads fastest in the season people expect it least.
