Concern about indoor exposure to mold has been an increasing concern as the public becomes aware that exposure to mold can cause a variety of health affects and symptoms, including allergic reactions. Mold grows on walls, ceilings and ductwork – often times hiding inside walls.

We encourage immediate emergency service for water damage surfaces to inhibit mold growth. But if the damage has already begun, our team of experts can eradicate the problem and minimize further structural damage. Through remediation and the proper testing – we strive to remove and return the structure to normal fungal ecology. Testing is always completed by an Industrial Hygienist and removed by IICRC technicians. Please go to www.iicrc.com for more information and details.

 Infrared thermal imaging is a non-invasive way to effectively inspect, detect and evaluate moisture intrusion in all types of buildings.  Moisture intrusion in a building can cause havoc to the building structure and individuals who live or work in the building. Thermal imaging cameras use sensors to pick up infrared waves and formulate images based upon those waves.  The resulting images, properly interpreted can be used to assess areas of potential moisture by evaluating differences in temperature.

Temperature difference caused by evaporation, radiation, thermal bridging, infiltration and other sources must be carefully evaluated. We use this tool to spot suspect areas that are not visible to the naked eye.  The use of thermal imagery during a moisture intrusion evaluation is an integral tool that can provide immeidate and meaningful documentation.  Infrared thermal imaging can quickly identify what building materials are impacted by the water intrusion and visually show us how far the water migrated.  By being able to visually see and locate all problem areas within the building, intelligent decisions can be made by everyone involved in the project.  This typically reduces the number of days required to dry the structure.
