Restoration firms for drying and mould removal.
Salt Lake City has a recent record of water arriving where it shouldn't. On April 12, 2023, Emigration Creek overflowed from snow runoff and sent water through Wasatch Hollow Park and down 1700 S and 1500 E, and in the 1983 flood State Street was turned into a channel to carry runoff. Water that sits in a building is what leads to mould, and Utah's health department lists flooding, leaking pipes, leaking roofs and foundations, and condensation as moisture sources, with controlling excess moisture as the key to stopping growth. When you hire, ask whether the job touches plumbing, electrical or heating and ventilation work, because Utah requires a licensed contractor for each of those even on smaller jobs. Ask for written confirmation of public liability insurance, and workers compensation where it applies. Before work starts, check your policy too: most standard homeowners policies leave out flood damage and backed-up drains or sewers, though an endorsement may add some cover.

On April 12, 2023, Emigration Creek overflowed from snow runoff and sent water through Wasatch Hollow Park and down 1700 S and 1500 E in Salt Lake City. The city and Salt Lake County found the cause was a malfunctioning steel plate blocking a culvert drain, and volunteers filled sandbags in the following days.

In the 1983 Salt Lake City flood, State Street was turned into a channel to carry the runoff. Another diversion route was 1300 South from 600 West to the Jordan River.
Ask how fast they will start drying: Health Canada says a home dried within 48 hours is less likely to grow mould.
Health Canada suggests professional help for extensive mould, meaning a patch larger than 3 m².

It depends on the work. Utah exempts some small repair jobs from licensing, but only subject to other limits in the statute. Any plumbing or electrical work within that exemption still needs a licensed plumbing or electrical contractor, and heating, ventilation or air-conditioning work needs a licensed HVAC contractor. Utah State Legislature (source, opens in a new tab)
Under Utah's licensing exemption, once a project's total value is above a set threshold, the person must file a one-time affirmation with the Division of Professional Licensing. It states they carry public liability insurance and, if applicable, workers compensation. Ask to see that proof before you sign. Utah State Legislature (source, opens in a new tab)
Often not. The Utah Insurance Department says most standard homeowners policies do not cover flood damage or damage from backed-up drains or sewers, nor interior storm water damage when the roof or walls are undamaged. Some insurers sell endorsements, extra cover bought separately, so ask yours before work begins. Utah Insurance Department (source, opens in a new tab)
Moisture is the cause. Utah's health department names flooding, leaking pipes, leaking roofs and foundations, and condensation as sources of indoor mould moisture. It says controlling excess moisture is the key to stopping growth, so ask any contractor how they will find and dry the source, not just clean the surface. epht.health.utah.gov (source, opens in a new tab)
