What is the hidden threat that hides in every home,
office, school, and business?
It is mold, black mold, mildew, bacteria, fungi, and other
microbial organisms. Ever since the famous Legionella outbreak
in Philadelphia 25 years ago and particularly in the past
several years, microbial contamination has become a dreaded
and feared phenomenon. Today, mold has taken on a stigma related
to an array of allergic, inflammatory and perhaps toxic health
effects. In almost all cases serious microbial contamination
is preceded by water damage due to flooding, failed sump pumps,
or broken water lines. Mold spores combined with the proper
humidity, temperature, and nutrition left unabated can lead
to serious health effects and costly procedures to control.
When faced with this type of threat, who you call for help
can be the most important decision you make. Remediation involves
a comprehensive approach to identify all aspects of microbial
contamination.
Mold remediation (mold removal) without
addressing the root cause of the contamination is of little
long-term value to the building owners and occupants. Thus,
any prudent program should include the following work plan:
- Detailed inspection to identify complete scope of work
- Isolation and engineering controls to contain contamination
- Source removal of contaminants
- Chemical treatment when necessary with EPA approved products
- Identification and elimination of root causes promoting
contamination
- Proper pre and post monitoring plans
- Comprehensive report of findings
