(PRWeb UK/PRWEB ) November 20, 2009 -- Building Forensics have been inundated with requests to investigate sick or tight building syndrome since their recent appearance on ITVs "Building From Hell".
"Mould is a trigger for asthma" World Health Organisation |
Building Forensics has found increasing evidence that construction management is failing to control quality standards or indeed comply with manufacturer’s or architects design or installation requirements. Worse still few surveyors or inspectors have the equipment or training to undertake non intrusive investigation or be able identify hidden defect such as missing insulation, thermal bridging and there presence of toxic chemicals.
The combination of high cellulose materials and misuse of vapour barriers, thermal bridging from poor or missing insulation or failure to properly seal the building envelope can result in the growth of toxic mould such as Penicillium, Tricoderma and Stachybotrys.
While visible mould is a good indicator of the health risk, it should be recognised that the moisture required for mould growth, sometimes from leaks but usually from condensation, often occurs out of sight in voids or behind plasterboard cavity walls.
Based in London "Building Forensics" are pleased to offer a nationwide investigation and inspection service identifying construction defect or the presence of harmful toxins using state of art measurement and monitoring equipment coupled to world class laboratory analysis.
