MOLD REMEDIATION:

Mold is part of the natural environment. Molds reproduce by means of tiny spores. Symptoms of mold exposure may include nasal and sinus congestion, runny nose, eye irritation, itchy, red, watery eyes. Respiratory problems, such as wheezing and difficulty breathing, chest tightness, cough, throat irritation, skin irritation like a rash, headaches or sneezing.

The first step in assessment is to determine if mold is present by visually examining the premises; visible mold helps determine the level of remediation necessary and take the appropriate action. The best way to control mold growth is to control moisture.

LEAD PAINT:

Environmental laws have reduced lead exposure in the United States, but it is still a health risk, especially for young children.

Lead poisoning occurs when you absorb too much lead by breathing or swallowing a substance with lead in it, such as paint, dust, water, or food.

In children, too much lead in the body can cause lasting problems with growth and development. These can affect behavior, hearing, and learning and can slow the child's growth.

In adults, lead poisoning can damage the brain, nervous system, stomach and kidneys. Can also cause high blood pressure along with other health issues.

Lead poisoning is usually caused by months or years of exposure to small amounts of lead at home or work. It can also happen very quickly with exposure to a large amount of lead. Many things can contain or be contaminated with lead: paint, air, water, soil, food, and manufactured goods.

The most common source of lead exposure for children is lead-based paint and the dust and soil that are contaminated by it, mainly a problem in older homes and buildings.

Adults are most often exposed to lead at work or while doing hobbies that involve lead. Lead can damage almost any organ.

SOIL REMEDIATION:

Soil Remediation is the removal of pollution or contaminants from the environment. Pollution or contaminants should be removed from any media such as soil, groundwater, sediments or surface water by using the appropriate technique; bioremediation.
