Mold Removal in Sugar House, UT

Sugar House takes its name from the sugar beet factory the Deseret Manufacturing Company tried to run here in 1853, and for a century it was a working neighborhood of its own around the intersection of 2100 South and Highland Drive. The housing is 1900s to 1930s brick bungalows and cottages on the side streets, with 1940s and 1950s houses filling the blocks toward Parleys Creek. Utah's first state prison stood here until 1951; its grounds became Sugar House Park and Highland High School.

Parleys Creek is the neighborhood's water. It runs out of Parleys Canyon, through the park and Hidden Hollow, and under the business district, and in a big snow year the soil along it stays wet into June. The bungalows were built with cellars under part of the house, dug deeper and finished later, and a stone or brick foundation from 1915 with carpet and drywall against it is where Sugar House mold starts.

Homeowners in Sugar House reach an independent local mold provider through this site's phone line. That provider meters the cellar wall and tells you what has to come out. We only set up the call.
