Mold Removal in Alpine, UT
Alpine is the highest town in the north county at about 5,050 feet, settled in 1850 in a pocket of the mountains with several small streams running through it. Dry Creek drains Alpine Canyon past Horsetail Falls, through town, and on down through Highland and Lehi. The housing is a mix of the old town grid around Main Street and large custom homes from the 1980s onward on the benches and up the canyon sides. Housing units went from about 1,000 in 1970 to nearly 2,800 by 2020, almost all with full basements.
The creek and the slopes set the water pattern. The 1983 melt sent Dry Creek runoff from above Alpine through every town below it on May 29. On September 7, 2013 a thunderstorm dropped three quarters of an inch of rain in 15 minutes and put mud and water into about a dozen Alpine homes, with about a hundred people evacuated. Water on a hillside lot finds the uphill basement wall first.
Homeowners in Alpine reach an independent local mold provider through this site's phone line. The provider handles the inspection and the work. This site sets up the call.
Alpine mold removal, hillside basements and long supply runs
A basement wall on the uphill side that went soft after a storm or the melt is a basement mold remediation job, and the crew maps every wall with a meter before cutting. Big houses at this elevation freeze hard, and a supply line that split in an exterior wall during a cold snap is where whole-home mold remediation starts. The mold damage repair that follows usually includes insulating that line so it does not happen again.
Who handles water and mold questions in Alpine
The Alpine City Building Department on North Main issues permits for the drywall, plumbing, and electrical work that follows removal. The town's 255-acre Lambert Park on the east bench is the open ground above many of the homes that took mud in 2013, and a walk up its trails after a storm shows where the water wants to go.
