Mold Removal & Remediation in Gillette, WY
Containment, HEPA filtration, and antimicrobial treatment remove mold colonies at the source and stop cross-contamination through the rest of the home. Mold remediation removes affected porous materials and corrects the moisture source that allowed growth. The work is done under containment with HEPA filtration so spores are not carried into unaffected rooms, and the area is cleared only once the underlying moisture problem has been resolved.
Remediation is the step after the assessment, not before it. A local pro establishes how far the growth extends and what is feeding it, because removing what is visible while the moisture source is still running puts the same colony back in the same wall. Texas and several other states also set a square-footage point above which the work has to be done by a licensed remediator — the service note below covers where that line falls in this city.

Frequently asked questions
What is clinker doing under a house?
It is burned coal, and it behaves like a French drain that nobody designed. Water enters the clinker upslope and can travel a long way before it exits at a cut or a footing. A dry surface and a wet crawlspace are the usual signature.
The 1990s house next door does not move and ours does. Same street?
Same street, not the same ground. Basin lots change from bentonite to clinker to sand within a block, and boom construction did not always match foundation type to what was under the pad. The neighbor's quiet house is not a verdict on yours.
We closed the crawlspace in October and it smelled by spring. Why?
Because it was closed while it was still wet. The construction season is short, and a space buttoned up in the fall has all winter with no drying path. Opening it to controlled air, not sealing it, is what a 18-inch climate still requires when the ground itself is wet.
