expensive drainage problems can lead to mold contamination

Expensive Drainage Problem

Unfortunately this client was unaware of a serious drainage issue that lead to extensive flooding in her daylight basement after a heavy rain. The result- mold started growing in the walls, the carpet and even on the fiberglass insulation.

After all the remediation work was conducted by Environix, clearance testing revealed the that her home was once again safe for occupancy.

 


 

 

 

Technical Goals of Remediation

Underlying cause(s) identified and repaired.

We first identify and repair the structural defect, mechanical failure, or environmental condition that caused the mold growth to begin with.  This step is carried out by Certified Environix Technicians utilizing specialized equipment.

Visible problem(s) removed.

All mold contaminated building materials that cannot be salvaged or cleaned are removed to a distance 2’ beyond all visible contamination. Depending on the extent of the contamination, containment, negative air generation and HEPA air filtration/ vacuuming may take place during this process.

Odor problem(s) resolved.

Mycotoxin production, a byproduct of mold growth, causes the odors commonly associated with mold contamination.  Complete eradication combined with an EPA approved biocide application will effectively eliminate these odors.

Environment is suitable for occupancy.

Post remediation verification or (clearance testing) is conducted to insure the environment is suitable for re-occupancy. 

For successful correction of an IAQ problem and resolution of a situation, both technical goals and organization goals must be met.  A technically competent remediation plan that lacks recognition of the budget, time and patience constraints of the organization is doomed to failure form the onset.

Organizational Goals of Remediation

On budget with cost of remediation.

A thorough initial assessment (preliminary determination) will identify the extent of the damage avoiding change orders or up charges.

Duration of disruption minimized.

Time is money.  We will insure adequate personnel are assigned to your project insuring a timely completion.

End of complaints.

The customer is always right.  We are not happy until you are.  Attention to detail and open communication will insure that you and or your tenants are completely satisfied allowing you to move on with life.

5 Principles of Remediation

1. Safety and Health – Safety is priority #1 for Environix Remediation Technicians.  Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and containment insure both worker and occupant safety.

2.  Project Documentation – We pride ourselves on effective communication and documentation before, during, and after every remediation project protecting the interests of both the contractor and property owner.

3. Contaminant Control – Dust suppression, HEPA Filtration, Negative Air, and Isolation are a few ways we guard against cross contamination.

4. Contaminant Removal – Items that cannot be cleaned must be removed from the remediation site.  Clearance testing insures that all contaminants have been removed and the environment is again suitable for occupancy.

5.  Contamination Prevention – Even the best remediation is carried out in vain if the underlying cause or condition is not identified and repaired.
