Categories of Environmental Damage
Mould
Mould growth often results from pre-existing or ongoing water damage issues such as leaking pipes, sump pump failure, roof leaks, and sewer backups. Many types of mould can be hazardous to your health and cause significant property damage to your building. Mould typically grows indoors on wet or damp surfaces including carpets, ceiling tiles, wallpaper, wood, and drywall. After a flood, mould can begin growing within 48 hours, making prompt water damage restoration critical to prevent further structural damage.
Asbestos
Asbestos was a widely-used mineral banned from manufacturing in most building materials in 1979. Prior to the ban, asbestos was used in various materials including vinyl flooring, insulation, plaster, siding, textured ceilings, and shingles. Buildings constructed before the early 1990s may contain asbestos. Any building materials installed prior to 1990 and affected by contaminated water, fire damage, or soot must be tested by a certified laboratory to confirm the presence of hazardous materials. Professional asbestos removal is necessary for safe and thorough cleanup.
