Get your free estimateFast, Reliable Mold Remediation Across Clovis
Mold in a Clovis home usually starts the same way: a hidden slab leak, a slow roof drip during winter storms, or humidity trapped behind stucco. Once spores settle on wet drywall, the clock runs fast. In our experience across Clovis, visible mold is usually four to ten days behind the water event. And the cost of waiting another week is often the difference between spot mitigation and full tear-out. Our crews serve Clovis neighborhoods from Harlan Ranch to the older streets around Old Town, and we answer the phone live 24/7 at (559) 354-1680. When you call, a person picks up, not a voicemail.
Why Tidemark Water Damage Fresno Is Clovis’s Preferred Mold Remediation Company
Clovis homeowners call us because we treat the whole job, not just the patch of mold. Our Mold Remediation team is led by Rick Sumner, who has spent years working with the specific construction styles and failure patterns common across Clovis. We know what happens inside a 1980s stucco tract home near Sierra Vista when a copper pinhole leak goes quiet under the slab. We know how easily mold moves through plaster-and-lath in a 1950s ranch near Old Town. That local knowledge changes how we scope every job.
Every technician is background-checked and uniformed. Shoe covers go on at the door. Drop cloths go down before the first piece of equipment rolls in. And every job starts with a written price, delivered before any work begins. That is not a sales pitch. It is how Rick has run the business since 2006, as an independently owned and operated location of the Cedarwell Care Promise network.
Restoration work we handle
Professional Mold Removal in Clovis
Professional Mold Removal in Clovis means opening the affected area fast, containing the spores before they move through the HVAC system, and drying past the visible damage. A job in a typical Clovis home usually runs $800 to $3,500 depending on the square footage and whether drywall, framing, or flooring needs replacing. We write the number down before we start, and that number stays.
Containment and Source Removal
Before any cutting, we seal the work zone with 6-mil poly and run negative air through a HEPA-filtered scrubber. This keeps spores out of hallways, bedrooms, and return vents. We ask before moving anything. Furniture gets covered, not stacked in a corner.
Drying and Antimicrobial Treatment
After source removal, we apply an EPA-registered antimicrobial to exposed framing and dry the cavity with Dri-Eaz and Phoenix equipment. We do not paint over moisture. We map it, dry it, and document it so you can see the readings before we close up.
Mold Inspection in Clovis
Mold Inspection in Clovis starts with moisture mapping, not guesswork. We use thermal hygrometers and non-invasive meters to find water that is not visible yet: behind baseboards, under tile, inside wall cavities. A dedicated inspection runs $250 to $600 depending on the size of the home and whether air sampling is needed. When we combine an inspection with remediation, the inspection fee is credited toward the job.
Moisture Mapping Before Any Work
We walk the property with meters and a thermal camera, marking wet zones on a floor plan. This tells us where the mold is feeding, not just where it is blooming. It also tells us whether the slab is still releasing moisture, which changes the drying plan.
Air Quality Sampling When You Need Certainty
For families with infants, asthma, or immune concerns, we can run indoor air samples and compare them to outdoor baselines. The lab report shows exactly which spores are present and how the indoor load compares. You get the report, plain language and all.
Trusted Brands We Service in Clovis
Our Clovis trucks carry Dri-Eaz, Phoenix, and XPOWER equipment, and we stock the filters, hoses, and fittings needed to keep drying jobs moving the same day. On larger mold jobs in Clovis, we use Injectidry drying mats to pull moisture out of slab surfaces after a copper pinhole leak. When your home has specific building materials or access constraints, the equipment matters less than the person running it, and our technicians have the IICRC, RIA, and IFA credentials to make the right call.

AfterCommon Mold Remediation Problems We See in Clovis Homes
- Pinhole copper leaks under slabs: On the east side of Clovis, homes built in the 1980s and 1990s often have copper supply lines that corrode from the mineral content of local water. The leak stays hidden, the slab wicks moisture, and mold grows under tile long before anyone smells it.
- Stucco exteriors holding moisture: Many Clovis tract homes from the 1980s have paper-faced drywall behind stucco. A small roof or window leak wets that paper and mold spreads inside the wall cavity while the painted surface looks dry.
- Older bungalows near Old Town: Plaster-and-lath construction in the 1920s to 1950s homes traps moisture differently than modern drywall. Remediation there requires slower drying and more careful material assessment.
- Summer heat accelerating mold growth indoors: When a Clovis home reaches 100°F inside during July after an HVAC failure, a small water leak becomes a mold bloom in under 72 hours. Heat speeds the biological process, and our response time matters as much as our equipment.

FAQs About Mold Remediation in Clovis
24 to 48 hours. In Clovis’s hot summers, the window can tighten to under 24 hours if the home reaches 95°F or higher while the leak is active. Call (559) 354-1680 the same day you suspect a leak, and we can usually have a containment and assessment running before the 48-hour mark.
Yes, especially in east Clovis tract homes built in the 1980s and 1990s. The mineral content of the local water accelerates pinhole corrosion in copper supply lines, which leads to slow, hidden slab leaks. Homeowners often notice warm floor spots in winter or a musty smell with no visible water. That is the pattern Rick Sumner and our technicians have seen repeatedly on jobs near Temperance and Gettysburg.
Category 1 is clean water from a supply line or tub. Category 2 is grey water from washing machines or dishwashers. Category 3 is sewage or floodwater. The category determines what materials we can dry versus what we must remove. We explain this plainly before any cutting happens, and the written estimate notes which category applies to your situation.
Yes. Plaster-and-lath walls in pre-1950s bungalows dry much slower than modern drywall, and they often hide mold behind multiple layers of material. Remediation requires lower-heat drying, longer containment, and more careful material sampling. Newer tract homes with drywall and synthetic stucco usually respond faster to standard drying and antimicrobial treatment. The plan should never be the same for both.
Only if the water source is not fully resolved. A slab leak that is repaired but not dried completely will re-wet the same materials and mold will return. That is why our Clovis jobs include moisture mapping before and after, with drying logs and photo documentation before the crew leaves. The 365-Day Done Right Promise backs every Clovis mold remediation we complete.
