About this company
RainFire Restoration is a family-owned restoration company based in Midvale, Utah, founded in 2015 by husband and wife Alan and Nina Seegrist. Mold remediation is one piece of a broader operation that covers water damage, fire damage, smoke cleanup, and full reconstruction. They hold IICRC certification and operate as general contractors, meaning they handle everything from initial water extraction through drywall replacement and paint.
What stands out is the single-company model. RainFire handles both the damage mitigation and the rebuild, plus they work directly with insurance companies on claims. Several reviewers specifically mention this as a reason they chose the company. They offer 24/7 emergency response and have a named team you can look up on their website: project managers, a superintendent, and technicians are all listed by name.
Alan Seegrist still runs the company as president, with Nina as CFO. Their son Jared Seegrist serves as a project manager and is the most frequently named person in reviews. The team page lists eight people, giving this the feel of a tight crew rather than a large operation.
4.8 stars across 97 Google reviews is a strong rating. Only one review at 3 stars or below appeared in the last 18 months, and it contained no text. The overwhelming pattern is 5-star reviews praising responsiveness and communication.

1 found across 97 total reviews at 4.8★. The single recent negative is a 1-star review from May 2025 with no text. The reviewer has 7 reviews on Google but is not a Local Guide, and the review received zero likes. With no description of what went wrong and no owner response, there is nothing actionable to extract from this complaint.
RainFire has a 0% owner response rate on recent negative reviews. With only one textless negative in 18 months this has minimal impact, but it means there is no public record of how the company handles complaints. The overwhelmingly positive reviews follow a consistent pattern: emergency water event, fast response from Jared or the team, insurance coordination, and a completed rebuild. This is a restoration company where mold work is secondary to water and fire jobs.

RainFire is a strong pick for water damage emergencies where mold showed up as a secondary problem. Ask for Jared on the project management side and confirm your scope stays focused on remediation before any upsell into reconstruction. Since they do both testing and remediation, bring an independent test result or request a third-party assessment before agreeing to mold work.
Keep in mind
- RainFire does both mold testing and mold remediation, which creates a conflict of interest. The company that finds mold also profits from removing it. Ask for an independent mold assessment before committing to remediation work.
- Their primary identity is water and fire restoration, not mold-specific work. Mold remediation is one service among many, so ask how many mold jobs they handle per month.
- They claim to service the entire state of Utah but are based in Midvale. If you are outside Salt Lake, Utah, or Davis County, confirm response times and whether the same core team would do your job.
- The single recent negative review received no owner response. With a 0% response rate on negatives, you cannot gauge how they handle complaints publicly.
- As a general contractor doing full reconstruction, the scope of a project can expand. Get the mold remediation portion quoted separately from any rebuild work.
