Johnson Lane is the rural east side of the Carson Valley, a spread of ranchettes on one- to five-acre lots between the Minden-Tahoe Airport and the foot of the Pine Nut Mountains, at about 4,820 feet. About 6,400 people live here with a median age near 59, in homes that run from 1970s ranch houses to 2000s custom builds, almost all on their own well and septic system with a barn, a shop, or a horse setup out back.
Two things shape the mold calls. The first is the wash. Summer cloudbursts on the Pine Nut slopes send water and mud down the alluvial fans that these lots sit on, and a garage or a crawl space on the downhill side of a wash can take a foot of muddy water in an afternoon. The second is the well and the pressure tank, usually in a pump house or a garage corner, where a fitting that drips all winter goes unnoticed.
This site connects Johnson Lane property owners with an independent local mold provider. You call, describe what happened, and the provider decides what to bring.
A crawl space that took wash water or a pressure-tank leak is crawl space mold remediation, and the crew checks the outbuildings while they are there. A shop or garage wall that got wet from the outside is mold removal. Homes that are closed for part of the year and come back smelling damp are often mold odor removal once the wet material is found.
There is no water utility to call; the well is yours. Well permits and water rights in Nevada run through the Nevada Division of Water Resources, which also licenses well drillers. Rebuild permits go through Douglas County in Minden.
The community's southern edge is the Minden-Tahoe Airport, whose long runway on the flat valley floor marks where the alluvial fans end and the old ranch ground begins.

Containment, negative air, and HEPA filtration while wet drywall, trim, and insulation come out, then cleaning and drying down to the framing.
Dark growth on a wet wall or crawl space beam, handled under full containment. Color does not name the species, and the process is the same.
Room-by-room containment and removal after a burst pipe, a long roof leak, or a house that sat closed and wet through a Carson City winter.
Joists, subfloor, and insulation under the house cleaned or removed, with the snowmelt, plumbing, or drainage source fixed before it is closed up.
Growth in ceilings, drywall, and behind vanities from steam and slow leaks, the most common first call from older Carson City homes.
Roof-deck and rafter mold from ice dams, swamp cooler lines, and warm indoor air hitting a cold roof, cleaned and the cause corrected.
Drywall, baseboard, subfloor, and cabinet bottoms put back after removal, only once the framing reads dry and the leak is stopped.
Finding and removing the damp material behind a musty smell that outlasted cleaning, then treating surfaces and air so it stays gone.
