Clients need consultants like Century that are on the lookout for, and contributing to, the development of superior methods that characterize exposure and conditions more accurately, faster, and less expensively than what was used previously. The U.S. Air Force contracted with a general/abatement contractor to perform lead abatement and re-construction of 155 houses at F.E. Warren Air Force Base in Cheyenne, WY.

The extent of the mold growth is determined, measures and procedures for remediation are developed, and the project is overseen and tested to ensure correct implementation. Mold Testing is performed to determine if an unknown mold issue may be present, to characterize types of mold, determine airborne concentrations, or provide documentation on current conditions.

Using the best technology available, it is sometimes possible to simply rule out the more common potential contributors to IAQ discomfort, or to detect a chemical or cause of an actual issue. These assessments can incorporate a variety of levels or types of elements as described below.

read moreWhat has to be tested, and how, varies with the scope of the project. We are thoroughly familiar with all regulations and interpretations thereof to classify materials properly, to make sure abatement is sufficient but not excessive. Our inspections are quite incisive and we are known for excellent timeliness and accuracy. For example, a recent inspection that resulted in a large abatement project (over $1 million) was accompanied by only 0.3% in change orders for additional material. CAD drawings are available when needed.
