Medical Facilities Mold Removal : Remediation

Case Study

Situation

The building was about to be shut down due to a JAYCO inspection under AHCA guidelines identifying gross contamination behind the wall covering. Multiple walls throughout the surgery center had mold growth and moisture indicating a full blown contamination. Ceiling lights showed condensation and pockets of moisture were developing behind the wall covering.

Analysis

The building consisted of 10,000 square feet, of which three thousand were affected. Temperature in the surgery center was set at 68% creating a temperature difference with the interstitial space above the suspended ceiling and drywall ceiling above. As a result, this space was at dew point creating excess condensation. The area affected was retrofitted in design from its original intended use. We also found multiple failures in the mechanical system. All of the failures were faults caused from initial installation and or mechanical failures.

Solution

• Provide and consult with a certified HVAC contractor and consulted with them to
identify all the problems with the mechanical system controlling the
surgery center
• Provide and consult with an inspection/engineering company to review building
plans and identify interstitial space problem and solution (space between first
and second ceiling)
• Remove any mold ladened material or manage material in place
• Restore all materials to original design or better
• Project delivery- 96 hours down time; including remediation, sampling; by third
party and restoration. The project was start on a Friday at the end of
business and completed for Wednesday morning procedures

Testimonial

“… [We] discovered mold and mildew in our surgical center – as a medical
center we are subject to a higher compliance threshold. We needed a
professional so it wasn’t about flipping through the Yellow Pages. It had to be
quickly because we lost business every day.…they coordinated everything – they got a company to do the testing with a formal report, did the remediation, did another survey to test and the the restoration of a 200 sq ft. area…”
