SERVICE 03 / REMEDIATION

Remediation to the Sensitized-Occupant Standard

Source correction and physical removal of contaminated materials under verified negative-pressure containment, scoped in writing to the elevated standard sensitized households require — no fogging, no paint-overs, no self-graded homework.

What's included

  • Moisture source correction sequenced before removal
  • Sealed containment with manometer-verified negative pressure
  • HVAC isolation within the work zone
  • Removal of contaminated porous materials beyond visible margins
  • HEPA-based fine-particle cleaning of the work zone
  • Chemical disclosure in writing; fragrance-free, minimal-chemistry protocols
  • Third-party verification as the release condition for final payment

Why it matters

Standard-industry remediation is scoped for average occupants; sensitized households need tighter tolerances on the same physics.

Containment failures are how one-room projects contaminate whole houses.

Written standards and independent verification change contractor behavior more than any credential.

RED FLAGS WE SCREEN OUT
  • Biocide or fogging treatments proposed instead of removal
  • Encapsulation over contaminated materials
  • Contractor self-clearance with no third-party verification
  • Resistance to written containment specifications
THE OUTCOME

A building where the water problem is fixed, the contamination is physically gone, and an independent verifier — not the contractor — says so.
