Mold Removal in Lakeview, NV

Lakeview is the hill at the northwest corner of Carson City, where U.S. 395 climbs out of Eagle Valley over Lakeview Hill and drops into Washoe Valley. The neighborhood takes its name from the view: the homes on the slope look north across Washoe Lake to Slide Mountain and Mount Rose. Most of them are larger houses from the 1970s through the 2000s on big lots with long driveways, some of the highest and most exposed residential ground in the city.

Being on the hill changes the water. Snow lingers on the north-facing slopes and against the uphill side of a house weeks after it is gone downtown, and it melts against the foundation. The wind off Washoe Valley pushes rain and snow into every gap around windows, flashing, and vents on the north and west walls. Long driveways and steep lots put runoff where the builder did not plan for it, and a crawl space or a daylight basement on the downhill side is where it ends up.

This site connects Lakeview homeowners with an independent local mold provider. You call, describe what you see or smell, and the provider decides what to bring.

Lakeview mold, on the uphill side

A crawl space or lower-level room on the uphill side of a hillside house that smells wet every April is crawl space mold remediation, and the fix on the outside is usually drainage as much as cleaning on the inside. A north or west wall with growth behind the drywall from wind-driven snow is mold removal. Roofs up here hold snow longer, and ice dams along the north eaves put water into attics, which is attic mold remediation.

Where to call in Lakeview

Lakeview is inside Carson City, so rebuild permits go through the Carson City Building Division and any water on the system side comes from Carson City Public Works. Homes on the upper lots may be on their own wells; the well is the owner's, and a pressure tank that dripped through the winter is a common source of the spring call.
