Fast, professional mold removal

What a licensed remediation job actually involves, in the order it happens. Every step below is the contractor's work, not ours.

  1. Step 1: Assessment

    A licensed assessor establishes whether there is growth, how far it extends, and where the moisture is coming from.

  2. Step 2: Containment

    Barriers and negative air pressure go up first, so disturbing material does not move spores into clean rooms.

  3. Step 3: Removal

    Porous material that cannot be cleaned comes out - drywall cut past the moisture line, insulation, carpet pad, cabinet bases.

  4. Step 4: Drying

    Dehumidifiers and air movers bring the structure back to a dry standard, with readings logged from the material rather than the surface.

What drives moisture problems in Provo

Our local pros provide mold removal services in Provo and the surrounding area, including Joaquin and Foothills. The Wasatch rises abruptly behind this city, and the canyons cutting into it deliver both snowmelt and, after a wet spell, the debris the slopes have been holding.

Housing stock

Close to three fifths of the housing here predates 1990 — 60.2 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1983. Frame and stucco housing on full basements predominates with a median build year of 1983, built across alluvial fans between the mountains and the lake.

Climate and water risk

May is the wettest month here at 2.01 inches, part of an annual 17.19 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from PROVO BYU, 0.3 miles off. May leads at 2.01 inches of a 17.19 inch year, so rainfall is not what sets conditions. Snowpack in the mountains behind the city releases over several weeks each spring, raising groundwater across the valley on a schedule the local gauge never records.

Common moisture and mold problems in Provo

  • Mountain snowmelt lifting the valley water table over weeks with little local rainfall
  • Alluvial fans where housing sits on the paths water and debris have historically taken
  • Canyon mouths delivering concentrated flow onto the developed ground below them
  • A lake nearby holding the water table high across the lowest parts of the valley

Frequently asked questions

Seventeen inches of precipitation. Why is groundwater a concern?

Because almost none of the relevant water falls in the valley. Snowpack at elevation releases over weeks and lifts the water table beneath the city, so a basement can take water during a month with essentially no rainfall. The gauge measures the weather, not the hydrology.

What is a debris flow and how is it different from a flood?

A flood is water carrying some sediment; a debris flow is closer to moving concrete — a dense mix of soil, rock and water coming out of a canyon. It behaves and damages differently, and it follows the same fan paths that make the ground below canyons attractive to build on.

The lot is on a fan. Should I be worried?

Aware rather than worried. Alluvial fans are built from material water carried down over time, which means the surface looks like ordinary ground while the routes are still there beneath it. Knowing where the historic channels ran matters more than the finished grade.
