Inspection & Assessment   Steamatic begins by consulting with you, your insurance company and indoor environmental professionals. An assessment is made of ambient conditions including moisture content and humidity levels. This will determine 1) is a loss indicated, 2) the cause of the loss, 3) remediation Scope of Work, and 4) a cost estimate for removal. Once the estimate is accepted, work can begin quickly.     Containments and Health & Safety   Containment barriers are constructed to prevent the spread of mold spores and mycelial fragments to unaffected areas of your home or office. To protect the health of Steamatic technicians, protective clothing and full-face respirators will be worn. The affected areas placed under negative pressurization with HEPA filtration to remove spores that become airborne during the remediation process.     Contents   Contents from affected areas will be sealed and removed to the Steamatic restoration facility for cleaning. All articles will be inventoried and recorded. Your items can be stored and returned to your home or office when the remediation and rebuild is complete.         Structure   Technicians will first stabilize the environment to control moisture levels if necessary. Areas with heavy mold growth will be cleaned, sanded, HEPA vacuumed or removed as necessary.     Air System   If microbial growth is on a non-porous surface within your air system, Steamatic technicians use our proprietary equipment to clean and treat the system with an anti-microbial solution.     Clearance Testing   Once the areas have passed environmental testing, your home or office is then ready to be turned over to the general contractor of your choice for reconstruction.
