Because every project is different, there can sometimes be factors to consider that are not listed below. Depending on the amount of damage, job flow and timelines will vary. The following is a worksheet we hope will be helpful through this process.
Emergency Work Phase:
• Extraction and setting of drying equipment. Removal of necessary affected material, clean up and setting equipment
• All commercial properties, businesses or multi-living residential structures, as well as single-family homes built before 1985, will need to be tested for asbestos and lead
• Testing results will typically be received within 24-48 hours after samples were retrieved
