Should I worry about damp smell in basement?« Back to Previous Page

After the rain last month, I noticed a persistent damp smell in the basement area of our newly renovated apartment. Despite running the dehumidifier non-stop, the air still feels heavy and stale, especially during the cooler evenings. My family has been complaining of coughing and runny noses, which is unusual for this time of year. Do you think I can handle this myself or should we consider professional help?
