Project: Mold Remediation
Oops we forgot the stars--five is not enough!! We\'d give them 10 stars if we could.
Project: Major mold remediation
These experts know what they are doing—they do it right! Mold remediation is a project that must be done correctly or else it is a waste of time, energy and financial resources. We relied on the expert knowledge and responsible talents of both Nelson and Dennis before they became Better Breathing Environmental. We cannot say enough good things about our experience working with these two professionals. Most recently we purchased a property that we discovered had major mold infestation that would have very negatively impacted our health. We were so happy when we learned they had started their own company and we could employ their considerable expertise to rescue our property. This was an extensive project involving a large part of the building over a period of 2 months. Nelson and crew worked endless long hours for us, coordinating the job with the other repair contractors involved. Nelson adjusted schedules to accommodate the other repairs and carefully monitored the other work being done to assure that the remediation work was never compromised. We could not have done it successfully without Nelson and his dedicated, kind and respectful crew. We have now lived in this repaired environment for months with no health consequences. So very grateful to Nelson, Dennis and their crew.
Project: HVAC duct cleaning
Impeccable workmanship. Outstanding results. Honest and skilled people.
Many companies claim that they know how to remediate mold. However, what they do is not according to industry standards and actually make things worse by spraying the mold affected areas with chemicals, and then use blowers to spread spores in nearby areas and that's it. But that's not how it works, according to the EPA, even dead mold causes the same health problems that live mold does. Mold cannot be removed solely by cleaning the affected surfaces. For successful mold remediation, the mold contaminated material must be physically removed followed by the proper cleaning steps. In many cases, the mold is hidden within wall cavities or in inaccessible areas where it cannot just be cleaned, fogged, or sprayed. That’s when the removal of the actual contaminated material is crucial.
If you suspect that you have mold in your home, and that you or someone in your family has been exposed to mold, we suggest you first hire an IEP (Indoor Environmental Professional) such as a mold inspector or an industrial hygienist to assess your home. Once you receive their written report with recommendations, we will carefully review it and offer our services to help you take the next steps in implementing the recommended protocols. An experienced member of our team will visit your home or business in a timely fashion to evaluate the mold situation and/or HVAC system(s) cleaning needs, and will provide you with verbal and written information regarding the project and associated costs. Subsequently, Better Breathing Environmental will then work closely with your IEP and will adhere to their report. We will base the project on their recommendations to achieve a thorough and successful mold remediation and HVAC system cleaning following their protocols. To ensure that the remediation plan has been completed effectively, post-remediation testing by your IEP is always recommended.
When it comes to mold and microbial growth, the objective in many cases can vary based on several factors such as the type of structure being remediated, the health conditions of the occupants and cost associated but the most common targets should include:
