ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGES!

 

Our Mission

Creating healthier indoor living and work spaces through inspection, assessment, diagnosis and medically-sound recommendations for solutions.

We specialize in working with those who are mold-sensitized, have mold illness and multiple chemical sensitivities among other environmentally impacted individuals. There are many names to this spectrum of the environmentally impacted including CIRS, biotoxin illness, high-risk immune compromised, and environmentally sensitive.

We do not advertise or spend your $ on marketing. ALL of our business comes through referrals, mainly from mold-literate medical practitioners, clients and other contractors. Our connection to ISEAI.org and CIRSx organizations keeps us in the forefront of this very unique spectrum of environmentally-related illness.

What We Do

Assessments Include:

  • Infrared Thermography for Moisture and Air Leak Detection

  • Moisture Metering near Plumbing, Windows, Doors, Ceilings, Floors

  • Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Temperature, Relative Humidity

  • Airborne Small Particle Counts

  • Visual Check Interiors, Exteriors, Site and Foundation Drainage

    • If Accessible:

      • Crawlspaces

      • HVAC Systems (particular “hotspots” for microbial growth)

      • Attics

  • Optional medically-sound remediation/cleaning protocol writing, specializing in mold-sensitized, CIRS, biotoxin illness, environmentally acquired illness occupant needs

  • Sampling for Lab Analysis As Needed or Requested:

    • Air Mold Spore Counts and Identification (strategically used as assessment predicts possible hidden and/or elevated counts of airborne particles)

    • Surface Mold Sampling (viable and non-viable)

    • MSQPCR - (ERMI and HERTSMI-2) and expanded species sampling (note we consider each mold species present and its relation to the assessment performed, find indicators of possible sources and note significant mold species that may be associated with mycotoxins)

    • Actinomycetes and/or Endotoxin sampling

    • Cyanobacteria sampling (important in our region due to many toxic algae blooms)

    • Mycotoxin and EMMA Testing (Certified with Real Time Lab)

    • VOCs (Airborne Chemicals)

    • MVOCs (Airborne Mold Chemicals)

    • Formaldehyde Sampling

    • Endotoxins and Other Bacterial Toxins

    • Sewage Detection

    • Legionella or other specific bacteria

    • Infectious Germs, ie MRSA, Strep, Staph, Various Panel Combos
