This site helps connect property owners with independent local mold service providers. The provider you speak with is responsible for evaluating the property, explaining the scope, and representing its own credentials and services.
The number on this site rings through to an independent local provider that handles mold removal and remediation in your part of Washoe County. You describe where you see it or smell it and what got wet. They ask a few questions and take it from there. Any agreement, price, or warranty is between you and that provider.
Mold Remediation Reno does not remove, clean, dry, or rebuild anything. It does not employ the crews. It does not quote prices, because nobody can price a mold job without moisture readings from the room. It does not offer mold testing. If you want the air or a surface sampled, that is something you arrange separately with a testing company of your choosing.
Mold here has a local shape. Seven inches of rain a year, so nearly every case traces back to plumbing, a roof, a swamp cooler, or a crawl space rather than the weather. Freezing winters that build ice dams at the eaves. A river that has flooded downtown Reno and the Sparks industrial district in 1997, 2005, and 2017. A provider who works this county knows to look under the house before opening the wall.
Nevada does not issue a separate mold license. Contractors who do the removal and rebuild work are licensed through the Nevada State Contractors Board, and you can look up a license and its classification there in about a minute. Providers represent their own licensing. Ask for a certificate of insurance and a written scope before work starts.
If the water came from a river, a creek, or a flooded playa lake rather than from inside the house, the Truckee River Flood Management Authority publishes the flood maps and project plans for the Truckee Meadows. For questions about a rental that a landlord is not addressing, Northern Nevada Public Health is the public health agency for Reno, Sparks, and the county.
Call (775) 459-9573. Have the property address, a callback number, and a plain description of where the mold is and what got wet.
