Monument homeowners face unique environmental challenges. Situated at over 7,000 feet along the Palmer Divide, properties in this El Paso County community experience rapid temperature swings, heavy spring snowmelt, and seasonal moisture intrusion that create ideal conditions for mold growth. Atlas Contracting & Environmental Solutions provides CDPHE-certified mold remediation specifically calibrated for Monument's high-altitude climate and the distinct construction styles found throughout the Tri-Lakes area.
Every mold remediation project in Monument begins with a thorough indoor air quality assessment. Our certified inspectors use thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters to trace hidden water pathways behind drywall, beneath flooring, and inside crawl spaces. This diagnostic-first approach ensures we identify every colony — not just the visible growth — so the remediation addresses the full scope of contamination from the start.
Inspection & Testing
Comprehensive mold inspections and air quality testing to identify hidden moisture sources. We collect surface swab samples and air cassettes, sending them to an independent laboratory for species identification. Knowing whether you are dealing with Stachybotrys, Aspergillus, or Penicillium determines the containment protocol and personal protective equipment required for safe removal.
HEPA Containment
HEPA-contained removal of black mold and antimicrobial treatments to prevent recurrence. Our crews construct negative-air containment chambers using 6-mil polyethylene sheeting and commercial air scrubbers rated at 500+ CFM. Every square inch of affected material is removed down to clean substrate, then treated with EPA-registered antimicrobial coatings that inhibit future fungal colonization.
Crawl Space & Attic
Crawl space and attic mold remediation tailored to the El Paso County climate. Monument homes built on pier-and-beam foundations are especially vulnerable to crawl space moisture. We install vapor barriers, improve ventilation pathways, and apply encapsulation systems that protect structural joists and subfloor sheathing against Colorado's freeze-thaw cycles.
Structural Drying
Structural drying and dehumidification to address the root cause of fungal growth. Mold cannot survive without moisture, so every remediation includes industrial LGR dehumidifiers and axial air movers positioned according to IICRC S520 drying standards. We monitor grain depression and temperature differentials daily until materials reach target equilibrium moisture content.
Water damage escalates fast. Within 24 hours, saturated drywall and carpet padding become breeding grounds for mold and bacteria. Atlas Contracting maintains a 24/7 dispatch center with crews staged across the Front Range, ensuring Monument property owners receive rapid-response extraction and drying services when every minute counts. We handle everything from burst supply lines and sump pump failures to Category 3 sewage backflows that require full biohazard sanitation.
Rapid Extraction
Rapid response for burst pipes, basement flooding, and sewage backups. Our emergency teams arrive within 60 to 90 minutes carrying truck-mounted extractors capable of removing thousands of gallons per hour. Immediate extraction prevents water from wicking into wall cavities and subfloor assemblies, dramatically reducing total restoration cost and timeline for Monument homeowners.
Industrial Equipment
Industrial-grade water extraction and structural drying equipment. We deploy commercial-class LGR dehumidifiers, desiccant dryers for large-loss scenarios, and injectidry wall-cavity drying systems. Moisture readings are logged electronically and shared with your insurance adjuster in real time, providing transparent documentation throughout the drying process.
Black Water Sanitation
Category 3 (Black Water) sanitation to ensure property safety. Sewage backups and storm-driven flooding introduce dangerous pathogens including E. coli, Hepatitis A, and other biological contaminants. Our IICRC-certified technicians follow strict S500 protocols for black water events: all porous materials within the flood line are removed, structural surfaces are treated with hospital-grade disinfectants, and post-sanitation ATP testing confirms the space is safe for re-occupancy.
Insurance Support
Direct insurance billing and detailed documentation for claims processing. We prepare Xactimate line-item estimates that mirror the format adjusters use internally, accelerating approval timelines. Our project managers photograph every phase of work and maintain a digital chain-of-custody log so your claim file is complete before the final walkthrough.
Monument sits at the convergence of several drainage basins along the Palmer Divide, making properties in neighborhoods like Jackson Creek, Promontory Pointe, and King Soopers Village particularly susceptible to flash flooding during summer monsoon season. Our pre-positioning strategy means equipment and trained technicians are never more than a short drive from any Monument address — day or night, weekends and holidays included.
Many Monument homes and commercial buildings constructed before 1985 contain asbestos in floor tiles, pipe insulation, popcorn ceilings, and roofing materials. Disturbing these materials during renovation or demolition releases microscopic fibers that cause mesothelioma and asbestosis. Atlas Contracting holds full CDPHE certification for asbestos abatement under Colorado Regulation No. 8, ensuring every project meets state and federal safety thresholds from initial survey through final air clearance.
Our lead stabilization services protect families in Monument's older residential neighborhoods. Properties built before 1978 frequently contain lead-based paint on trim, window sashes, and exterior siding. Rather than full removal — which can generate hazardous dust — we apply EPA-approved encapsulant coatings that lock lead particles in place, eliminating exposure risk while preserving the architectural character of your home.
Asbestos Removal
Safe removal of asbestos-containing floor tiles, popcorn ceilings, and insulation. Our abatement crews construct full-negative-pressure enclosures with HEPA-filtered air handling units. Wet-removal techniques suppress fiber release during demolition, and all waste is double-bagged in labeled 6-mil poly bags for transport to a CDPHE-licensed disposal facility.
CDPHE Certified
CDPHE-certified technicians following strict Regulation No. 8 protocols. Every abatement project includes a pre-demolition survey with bulk sample analysis, a detailed work plan filed with the state, and third-party air monitoring conducted by an independent industrial hygienist. We do not release containment until phase-contrast microscopy confirms airborne fiber concentrations are below 0.01 fibers per cubic centimeter.
Lead Stabilization
Lead paint stabilization for historic and older residential properties in Monument. Our EPA Lead-Safe RRP certified technicians (Certification No. NAT-F222667) use containment and HEPA vacuuming to control dust during surface preparation. Stabilization coatings are applied in controlled conditions with clearance wipe testing to verify lead dust levels fall below HUD standards.
Biohazard Cleanup
Meth lab cleanup and biohazard remediation for property recovery. Clandestine drug manufacturing leaves behind toxic chemical residues that permeate drywall, carpet, HVAC ductwork, and plumbing. Our hazmat-trained crews perform full decontamination following Colorado Department of Public Health guidelines, with post-remediation sampling to confirm the property meets state clearance levels for re-occupancy.
Feedback from homeowners and property managers across the Tri-Lakes area.
"This is an honest place. There are so many disreputable companies out there in this industry, but Atlas is not one of them. Quick work, proper abatement to prevent contamination, and friendly service all come with the fairly priced Atlas contract. Nobody wants to have this work done because it usually means things have gone sideways in your home. That said, if you do, call Atlas Contracting and Environmental Solutions; the company is ACES!!!"

"We had a roof leak in our kitchen caused by a roofer. Rob came out right away and assessed the issue and worked with myself and the roofer. That day he had made a plan for how the job would go, and began setting up equipment to keep my family safe. He walked me through every step of how the job would go and kept my husband and I informed throughout the process. He made sure that the toddler and newborn in my home would be safe throughout the entire demo process. I cannot recommend this company enough."
