Environmental Remediation Services
If you’ve experienced even the most minor water event or consistent humid conditions, mold growth is a possibility and real concern. Have you endured a fire loss? Toxic soot and debris can quickly contaminate your property as well as safe air quality. Many bio- hazards created by animal or human feces, sewage and airborne particulates pose their own risks. However the largest single risk to your property is the safety of your students, residents or employees.
Left untreated environmental contamination poses significant risks to you and your bottom line. Remediation by improperly trained people can add to those risks and lead to unhealthy indoor air quality, future regrowth, and damage to the property structure. Mitigate your risk by seeking out experienced, trained, RIA & IICRC certified professionals at ACR who are qualified to ensure a healthy environment.
We also offer lab pack-outs, infection control, bio-hazard services and more.
