A recent study in the Journal of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology has established a positive association (particularly in young children) between allergy symptoms, hypersensitivity and mold exposure. Our experienced and certified indoor air quality professionals can find out if you have an indoor air quality problem and determine how to fix it. We perform the following tests:

Moisture in crawlspaces can contribute to more problems than just mold. It can also result in structural damage from dry rot, potential indoor air quality problems, as well as the presence of termites and other unwanted pests attracted to moisture. Moisture in the crawlspace eventually will raise moisture levels throughout the house and can extend to attics and roof spaces. The extent of the problem depends on how much moisture is present and how often it exists. Some of the common symptoms of a crawl space with moisture problem are:
Conditioned crawlspaces have been shown to stop wood rot, mold, and odors. Call today for a free estimate. Mold Prevention in New Construction Wooden building members with mold on them can create health related problems after construction is finished. A moisture intrusion event such as high relative humidity or a leaking window or door can turn the dormant mold on the wooden building member into active mold growth. That’s why it is very important to make sure all wooden building members are mold free before close in with drywall. Children, asthmatics, elderly and immune-compromised people are especially susceptible. Pro-active builders and educated home buyers retain the services of a professional mold remediation firm to address mold concerns prior to "close-in", that is, before sheetrock and finishing components are added. Your home is the most important investment you will make. Make sure it doesn’t have a hidden mold problem that will surface after you move it. Call us for more information. Field Testing Windows for Water Leaks Window flashing is one of the most critical details of construction that is often improperly performed. Flashing keeps water from entering joints between dissimilar building materials. An improperly flashed window allows water into the wall cavity below the window causing mold and wood rot to occur. The health of asthmatics and people will allergies can be affected by exposure to mold. Fixing the problem can be costly. It is often difficult to find out where the window is leaking. Attempts to find the leak by squirting water from a garden hose onto the window is often misleading. Our testing equipment and methods accurately simulates the effect of rain and wind at the pressure the window was designed to withstand. The test results pinpoint where the leak is and how it can be repaired. Mechanical Services Petroleum Storage Tanks
