·          Certified Indoor Environmentalist - third party assessment:  Inspector should not perform any type of remediation so there is no conflict of interest. Our goal is to provide accurate information without bias so that educated decisions can be made.

·          Defined "Scope of Work": Defines the boundaries of the affected area(s) needing remediation. Additionally, knowing if the airborne levels are in a range of thousands, or hundreds of thousands may affect decisions regarding the timeliness of remediation, and the continued occupancy of the home.

·          Documentation: Many insurance adjusters will not authorize or undertake mold remediation if the presence of mold growth is not scientifically demonstrated. We identify the presence or absence of mold growth with AIHA EMLAP accredited laboratory analysis. Elevated moisture presence is identified through non-intrusive visual inspection with the use of infrared thermal imaging and other moisture detection equipment.

·          Recommendations for corrections: Know the extent of cleaning and what specific items/materials can be saved and how, plus what items/materials should be disposed based on nationally accepted industry standards.

·          Receive accurate remediation proposals: Saves homeowners and insurance companies money.

·          Achievement of "Clearance" is a significantly higher percentage: Providing useful information to remediation companies equals a successful project and allowsoccupants to return home quicker since additional cleaning after post remediation inspection and testing is reduced or eliminated.

·          Assessment cost is covered by most insurance companies:

·          Cross contamination? Many times when remediation is performed without a preliminary assessment and a containment is used; the post remediation air quality will pass inside the containment but will fail outside the containment. Knowing the extent of airborne microbial amplification before remediation begins eliminates questions of whether cross contamination occurred.
