Sammamish Indoor Environmental Inspection & Remediation Services

The Pacific Northwest is one of the most picturesque areas in the whole country. It’s surrounded by mountains and natural water sources, but this can also translate to high humidity levels. Not to mention the millions of homes that may still contain lead paint. For this reason, homeowners and residents of this area need to monitor and pay attention to the quality of the air in their house.

At Environix, our certified contractors have one goal—to help you monitor and restore the quality of the air inside of your house. Our inspection and remediation services will help you track down the source and provide permanent solutions that result in a clean, healthy environment.

Lead Testing & Inspections

Lead has been in use for thousands of years, but in the late 1970s, healthcare professionals observed the effects that this metal can have on our health. Although it was a common ingredient in paint and fuel, lead is now banned from consumer goods. Yet, exposure to this metal continues to be a real threat today.

Exposure to lead can cause a variety of health conditions in both adults and children. Getting a Sammamish lead testing company to examine your house is the only way to ensure there’s no contamination. And, in case the tests come back positive, you need to find an inspection company that can also provide effective solutions.

Keep in mind that standard lead inspectors can’t discuss the dangers of this metal or provide recommendations. The good news is that Enviroinx team members carry the Lead Risk Assessor certification, which means they can also discuss the effects this dangerous element can have and offer tips to safely remove it.

Lead-based paint testing will help you determine if this dangerous metal is present in your house. Additionally, soil lead tests can also help identify any residual pollutants that may create a dangerous environment for your family.

Mold Inspection & Testing Services in Sammamish

It’s no secret that excess moisture causes the vast majority of mold problems found in a house. In other words, the only way to find a permanent solution to the unwanted growth in your home is to find the source of humidity, which can come in the form of a leaky pipe, poorly insulated space, or water seeping up from the ground.

If you notice signs of unwanted growth like musty smells, having a home mold inspection is the first step towards restoring the air quality in your home. Most Sammamish mold testing companies will only collect samples, forward them to a lab, and send you the results once they’re ready. Lab tests are necessary to identify the species of mold and the extent of the infestation. But, this alone won’t show you where the excess moisture is coming from.

At Environix, we’ve developed a new approach that provides technical and practical information about your mold problem. After verifying the presence of mold, our inspectors will also look for the source of unwanted moisture and provide solutions that take care of the issue once and for all. If you want to have your home inspected by a qualified professional, get in touch with us today.

Mold Removal & Remediation

The city of Sammamish is located next to Lake Sammamish. And, like the rest of the Pacific Northwest, humidity levels tend to be on the higher end of the scale. For this reason, our team focuses on following a strict mold abatement process while delivering the best customer service.

Remember, mold grows naturally on a variety of surfaces and their microscopic spores can be found floating pretty much everywhere. The main goal of our mold removal service is not to take out all the spores, but to clean the excess contaminants and restore your air quality back to normal. And, because our approach focuses on efficiency, it usually results in reduced costs for our customers.

Our Remediation Process

Our mold removal process takes place in four different stages. To start, we seal off the area that’s been affected by the mold in order to prevent spores from being distributed throughout your property. After the area is contained, we start removing the damaged materials and help you identify the items that can be salvaged.

Once we are done taking out the materials that can’t be restored, we start cleaning out the affected part of the house. This step is critical and it can take longer than any of the other phases, but it can help prevent any future problems. After removal and cleaning, our Sammamish mold specialists will run a series of tests to make sure the air quality in your house has been restored.
