Somersett is the master-planned community in the foothills west of Northwest Reno, about 2,400 acres of stucco homes, two golf courses, and trails, built from the early 2000s on. Nearly every house is on a slab, most are two stories, and all of them answer to an owners association with rules about roofs, paint, and exterior work. The elevation runs higher than the valley, and the wind off the Sierra is a fact of life on the ridges.
Because the houses are young, the mold calls are about how they were built rather than how they aged. Upstairs bathroom fans ducted into the attic. Tub drains and shower pans that leak into the ceiling below. Windows on the weather side that let wind-driven snow past the flashing. And a fair number of homes that sit empty for stretches, because Somersett owners travel, so a leak runs longer than it would in a house with someone home.
When a Somersett homeowner calls this site, the call goes to an independent mold provider who serves the community. The provider handles the visit and the work. The site is the connection.
Ceiling spots above a shower and a soft wall behind an upstairs toilet start most bathroom mold removal calls. When the leak has come through to the room below, mold removal under containment handles the cavity between floors. A house that sat empty through a winter leak is a whole-home mold remediation job.
The Somersett Owners Association is the first call for anything that touches the outside of the house, including a roof repair after an ice dam, and its architectural rules apply before the city's permit does. Somersett is inside the Reno city limits, so rebuild permits go through the City of Reno.

Containment, negative air, HEPA cleaning, and removal of wet drywall, trim, and insulation after a leak in a Reno home, with the source fixed.
Dark growth handled under full containment. Color does not name the species, and the process is the same: find the water, remove what is porous.
Room-by-room containment and removal after a burst pipe, a long roof leak, or a house that sat closed with a leak running all winter.
Joists, subfloor, and insulation under older Reno homes cleaned and dried, with the plumbing leak or ground moisture that fed it addressed.
Mold behind vanities, in ceilings, and inside walls from a fan that vents nowhere or a slow leak, the most common first call in tract homes.
Furnace cabinet, coil, swamp cooler, and duct cleaning when the musty smell shows up every time the system runs.
Finding and removing the damp source behind a musty smell that survived cleaning, then treating surfaces and air so it stays gone.
Drywall, baseboard, insulation, and subfloor put back after removal, once the framing reads dry and the leak is fixed.
