In this edition of the Restoration Roundup, we're talking mold remediation, mold-sensitized individuals, insurance fraud, asbestos, reconstruction and more.
As members of the restoration and remediation (R&R) industry, we are in the business of ghost busting. On a daily basis, we battle mysterious, invisible and scary stuff. Most of our foes are imperceptible, being unseeable, untouchable and unsmellable.
What would you do?” asked the voice on the phone. I get this question almost every day of my working life, from every corner of the U.S., from contractors, engineers, architects, plant managers, insurance professionals, technicians, you name it – they all want to know what I’d do in their position.
This month’s update could cover only a fraction of the committee’s ongoing activity. Within, there are updates on mold, lead paint, radon and legionella.
It’s a typical day of restoration work for you and your work crews - a small water damage job in an office complex basement, a smoke-damaged kitchen in a high school and a vandalism clean-up at a former plastics company building downtown.
