THE MOLD PROBLEM:

RESIDENTIAL CONSTRUCTION PERSPECTIVE

Mold growth prevention is our primary focus. Our treatment solution is designed to help builders and developers minimize their risk and liability caused by water intrusion events, that result in mold infestation. This is achieved by taking a proactive approach to mold by partnering with us to stop it before it starts. The initial investment for treatment far outweighs the risk associated with future mold liabilities.

Proactive builders, developers and architects have chosen to enhance their risk management strategies due to the following:

  • Changes in design, materials and process have increased mold exposure
  • To fast-track construction
  • Withdrawal of insurance industry mold coverage
  • Broad exclusion of mold insurance from homeowners’ policies since 2002
  • The possibility of the builder becoming a target for claims and defects
  • Public perception
  • Buyers demanding a ‘healthy’ home
  • Increased public awareness of mold contamination
  • Requirement of a mold strategy within a construction protocol
  • The State Statute of Repose requiring builder’s liability
