EE&G was retained by Benchmark Bluffs, LLC to perform Water-Damaged/Mold Building Material Remediation. Project was a 50 year old apartment complex consisting of 294 units spread out in 19 buildings. The majority of the housing are two bedroom / two bathroom (174) with the remainder being a mix of one bedroom / one bathroom, some studios and a few town homes. Eleven of the buildings were split levels in that a portion of the first floor units are built against a hillside such that there is a dirt crawl space. EE&G performed and completed the following scope of work:
- Visually inspected readily assessable areas of apartment units for the presence of assumed mold growth (AMG) that remained after the gross demolition by others.
- Remediated AMG that included removal, cleaning and treating of impacted surfaces.
- Cleaned and treated exposed wood studs (as needed) carpet tack strips and utility closet floors and coated with an anti-microbial coating. Cleaned surfaces within each apartment to remove loose spores or other remaining construction debris/dust. Cleaning was completed using engineering controls, HEPA equipped vacuums and wiping with anti-microbial detergent solution. The “micro” cleaning served to render each apartment free of atypical fungal ecology and prepared the unit for re-construction activities.
