In the southeastern
United States, we lead crews during the cleanup and restoration of 300 single-family
homes infested with mold growth due to water damage from Hurricane Ivan. We identified building materials to be
salvaged, specified cleaning products and remediation procedures, and conducted
air monitoring to evaluate the success of the remediation efforts and determine
whether the homes could be safely re-occupied.
As part of a long-term commitment to ensure a healthy home environment,
we later trained local maintenance staff on how to perform building inspections
for mold growth, conduct air quality testing, and interpret and respond to test
results.
