Eagle Valley is the valley Carson City sits in, but to people who live here it also means the east side of town: the neighborhoods around the municipal golf course off East Fifth Street and Eagle Valley Middle School, out toward the airport and the river. The houses are mostly 1970s through 1990s single-story homes on crawl spaces and, in the later subdivisions, slabs, on the flat ground between the older city and the Carson River floodplain.
The east side is lower and flatter than the West Side, and the water problems are different. Instead of snowmelt against a stone foundation, it is drainage: a lot that slopes toward the house, a downspout that dumps at the corner, sprinklers that run against the stem wall, and a crawl space vent that takes it all in. A wet spring or a summer cloudburst off the Virginia Range puts water on the east side streets faster than the storm drains take it away, and the homes closest to the river have the 1997, 2006, and 2017 floods in their history.
This site connects east-side homeowners with an independent local mold provider. You call, describe what you see or smell, and the provider decides what to bring.
A crawl space that takes drainage water every spring is crawl space mold remediation, and the outside fix is grading and downspouts. A soft wall behind a water heater or under a window is mold removal. A house near the river that was dried from the top after a flood year and never opened up below the floor sometimes turns into whole-home mold remediation when a buyer's inspector goes under it.
The Carson City School District runs Eagle Valley Middle School and Empire Elementary on this side of town, and its campuses sit on the same flat, slow-draining ground as the houses around them. Rebuild permits go through the Carson City Building Division.

Containment, negative air, and HEPA filtration while wet drywall, trim, and insulation come out, then cleaning and drying down to the framing.
Dark growth on a wet wall or crawl space beam, handled under full containment. Color does not name the species, and the process is the same.
Room-by-room containment and removal after a burst pipe, a long roof leak, or a house that sat closed and wet through a Carson City winter.
Joists, subfloor, and insulation under the house cleaned or removed, with the snowmelt, plumbing, or drainage source fixed before it is closed up.
Growth in ceilings, drywall, and behind vanities from steam and slow leaks, the most common first call from older Carson City homes.
Roof-deck and rafter mold from ice dams, swamp cooler lines, and warm indoor air hitting a cold roof, cleaned and the cause corrected.
Drywall, baseboard, subfloor, and cabinet bottoms put back after removal, only once the framing reads dry and the leak is stopped.
Finding and removing the damp material behind a musty smell that outlasted cleaning, then treating surfaces and air so it stays gone.
