What's included
What our mold remediation service includes
Every mold remediation after water damage South Ogden UT job includes inspection, containment, removal, drying, and clearance. Add-ons like air sampling, drywall repair, and paint are quoted separately so you only pay for what your home needs.
✓
Moisture inspection
We map wet materials with moisture meters, a hygrometer, and a thermal imaging camera, then check wall cavities with a boroscope. You get a written summary of what is wet and what is not.
✓
Containment setup
Plastic sheeting and duct tape seal the work area, and HEPA air scrubbers run continuously to keep spores out of clean rooms. Containment is standard on every job, not an upsell.
✓
Mold removal
Contaminated drywall, insulation, and baseboard are removed and bagged. Structural wood is HEPA-vacuumed and treated with antimicrobial solution so remaining framing is clean.
✓
Structural drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers run until moisture content returns to normal, usually 3 to 5 days. We log daily readings and adjust equipment so drying stays on track.
✓
Clearance check
Final moisture readings confirm the structure is dry, and optional third-party air sampling verifies spore counts. We hand over documentation you can keep for your records or insurer.
How it works
Our mold remediation process, step by step
01
Inspection
A technician walks the home with a moisture meter, hygrometer, and thermal imaging camera to map wet materials. We check behind baseboards, inside wall cavities with a boroscope, and under the wood subfloor. You get findings the same visit.
02
Containment
We seal the work zone with plastic sheeting and duct tape, then set negative air pressure so spores do not travel to clean rooms. HEPA air scrubbers run continuously. Containment typically takes 30 to 60 minutes on a standard South Ogden home.
03
Removal
Contaminated drywall, insulation, and baseboard come out and get bagged. Structural wood is HEPA-vacuumed and treated with antimicrobial solution. We use DeWalt and Milwaukee tools to cut clean lines so repairs later match up.
04
Drying
Air movers and dehumidifiers run until moisture content returns to normal, usually 3 to 5 days. We check readings daily and adjust equipment. Desiccant dehumidifiers handle tight crawl spaces where standard units cannot reach.
05
Clearance
Final moisture readings and, when requested, third-party air sampling confirm the space is dry and clear. We walk you through the results, hand over documentation, and explain what to watch for over the next 30 days.
Tools & methods
Tools and methods we use on every job
Purpose-built equipment, used by trained technicians — so the job is done accurately the first time.
Thermal imaging camera
Finds hidden moisture behind walls, under floors, and above ceilings without tearing the house apart. We scan every room before and after drying.
Moisture meter and hygrometer
Measures moisture content in drywall, wood, and subfloor, and tracks relative humidity in the air. Readings are logged daily to confirm drying progress.
Boroscope
A small camera that lets us inspect inside wall cavities and crawl spaces without large demolition. It confirms whether mold is present before we open a wall.
Dri-Eaz and Phoenix air movers
High-velocity air movers evaporate moisture from surfaces so dehumidifiers can pull it out of the air. We size the count to the room, not a fixed number.
Desiccant dehumidifiers
Pull moisture from tight crawl spaces and cool basements where refrigerant units struggle. They are essential on South Ogden jobs with limited airflow.
HEPA air scrubbers
Filter mold spores and dust out of the air inside containment. They run continuously during removal and drying to protect the rest of the home.
Real results
Before and after.
Basement flood in Shadow Valley
Before
A failed sump pump left two inches of water across a finished basement. Carpet, pad, and the bottom 12 inches of drywall were soaked, and a musty smell had started within four days.
After
We extracted the water, removed carpet and pad, cut out 12 inches of drywall, and dried the space in four days. Moisture readings returned to normal, and no mold growth was found at clearance.
Kitchen supply line leak
Before
A supply line under a kitchen sink leaked for roughly three weeks before the cabinet floor softened. Mold had spread across the toe kick and into the subfloor near Downtown South Ogden.
After
We removed the affected cabinet base, treated the subfloor with antimicrobial solution, and dried the cavity over five days. The cabinet was rebuilt and the subfloor passed moisture checks.
Crawl space mold after snowmelt
Before
Spring runoff near Burch Creek wet a crawl space for weeks. Insulation was damp and mold had started on floor joists, pushing a musty smell into the living room above.
After
We removed the insulation, treated joists with antimicrobial solution, and ran desiccant drying for five days. Clearance readings were normal and the smell was gone.

Black spots on drywall after a slab leak
We contain the area, remove the affected drywall, and treat the studs. If the slab leak is still active, we coordinate the plumbing repair so the mold does not return.
Mold in a crawl space after snowmelt
We use boroscopes to inspect, run desiccant dehumidifiers in tight spaces, and remove contaminated insulation. Vapor barrier repairs are quoted as needed.
Ceiling stains from an upstairs leak
We open the ceiling, dry the cavity, and treat the joists. Drywall is replaced and finished so the repair blends with the rest of the room.
