Building Forensics

Building Forensics ltd added IAQ following the increased public interest in Indoor Air Quality post Covid.

The company director with 40 years of experience in disaster recovery and recipient of many DR awards is recognised as the most qualified and experienced expert in forensic investigation of mould, water damage and decontamination.

The company offers training and consultancy in many fields including fire damage, Lithium fires, Ventilation systems, water damage and flood recovery. Mould and bacterial contamination have become major concerns for property owners and managers.

Unfortunately, many rely on manufacturers sales material instead of training and this can have catastrophic effects on health when sales talk didn’t materialise in the efficacy during use.
 
Auditing contractors and even managers work can reveal major gaps in knowledge and skill capability and unfortunately the UK has generally failed to educate and train when dealing with mould, and decontamination. The dead, post mould treatment residue is according to WHO, 40 times more hazardous than  pretreatment, but few understand why and Building Forensics train and audit to improve the situation. Transferring knowledge through training has led to Mould Lab, our DIY mould and bacteria testing facility and we provide a full package to building Mangers.
