Mold Removal in Yalecrest, UT

Yalecrest runs from 800 South to 1300 South between 1300 East and 1900 East on the East Bench, and it is the valley's largest intact collection of period revival cottages: about 1,487 houses and duplexes built between 1910 and 1938, with 74 percent of them from the 1920s and 1930s and English Tudor and English Cottage styles setting the look. The district went on the National Register in 2007 for its high degree of historic integrity. Every house has a basement, dug when a basement meant a furnace room and a coal bin.

Those 1920s basements were finished into family rooms and bedrooms from the 1960s onward, with carpet on the slab and drywall against poured or brick walls that had wept quietly for forty years. The bench slopes west, so meltwater from the yards above runs toward the uphill wall, and Emigration Creek, which flooded across 1700 South just south of here in April 2023, marks how much water the East Bench carries in a big year.

Homeowners in Yalecrest reach an independent local mold provider through this site's phone line. That provider meters the uphill wall and the slab before deciding what comes out. We only set up the call.
