Mold removal in Eagle Mountain often involves a basement finished after move-in, sometimes by the owner, with drywall against the foundation and carpet over the slab. A small leak or seepage behind that finish grows mold out of sight. We find the source, remove what grew under containment and explain what to do differently.
Eagle Mountain homes
A city built in one generation
Eagle Mountain had about 250 residents 25 years ago and about 65,000 today, with around 1,200 new homes being built each year. Its 12,942 housing units have a median construction year of 2012, and 83 percent are detached single-family homes.
New homes often come with unfinished basements, and many owners finish them a few years later. Framing tight against the foundation, carpet laid straight on the slab and no plan for moisture are common in those projects, and they are where we find a lot of the mold here.
