What Makes Charlotte Different
Crawlspaces are the story in Charlotte. A large share of homes sit over a vented crawlspace, and in a humid Carolina summer that space can stay damp for months. Moist air under the house feeds mold on floor joists and pulls musty air up into the living space. Check the crawlspace once a year for standing water, sagging insulation and a torn vapor barrier.
The red clay soil holds water and drains slowly, so heavy rain can pool against foundations and seep into basements and crawlspaces. Remnants of tropical storms can bring days of heavy rain and strong wind, and ice storms bring down trees and limbs onto roofs. A tree through the roof is a structural problem first, so stay out of that room until it is checked.
Many homes built from the late 1970s to the mid 1990s used gray plastic polybutylene supply pipe, which is known to crack and fail without warning. If you see it at the water heater or under a sink, plan to replace it before it floods a floor.

Checking a License in Charlotte
North Carolina licenses general contractors through its state Licensing Board for General Contractors, and plumbers and electricians have their own state boards. Ask for license numbers on larger jobs and look them up on the board websites. South Carolina licenses contractors through its Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation, so check there for work across the state line. Neither state has a separate mold license, so ask for proof of liability insurance and whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage or mold remediation.
