Humidity along an old rail and dairy corridor
Chamblee grew up after its 1908 incorporation as a depot town at the junction of the Norfolk Southern line and the old Roswell Railroad, surrounded for decades by the dairy farms the area was known for — low-lying, well-watered land that older homes and outbuildings in Chamblee were built directly on top of.
Checking crawlspaces near old dairy land
Homes built on former dairy and farm parcels in Chamblee often sit on crawlspaces with poor original drainage, so a mold assessment there typically starts under the house rather than in the attic.
