Environmental Remediation

Asbestos

The removal of asbestos containing fireproofing from structural beams by Dec-Tam technicians in full personal protective equipment.

Mold

Mold may be removed from non porous surfaces, however, porous materials such as fabric and paper coated gypsum board must often be discarded.

Mercury

The proper removal and disposal of mercury following a spill requires slow and meticulous efforts on the part of our environmental technicians.

PCBs

PCBs are highly carcinogenic and are frequently found in paints and caulking materials. They can leach deep into the substrate and often require aggressive remediation techniques such as roto-peening.

Guano

Bird & bat guano, typically found in aircraft hangars, church steeples and attics, can cause histoplasmosis and must be removed by trained and fully protected environmental technicians.

Lead

The removal of asbestos containing fireproofing from structural beams by Dec-Tam technicians in full personal protective equipment. Lead paint may be removed from underlying wood or metal substrates by blasting or chemical means to prepare surfaces for a new finish.
