When you have suspicion of a contamination event involving your property. Properties involved in an eviction or stolen vehicles are two of our most common occurrences.

- Address of the property.
- Number of rooms .
- Heating system ( forced air, baseboard heat, PTAC).
- Reason for suspicion ( Police report, known activity, signs, paraphernalia).
- Does this involve a transaction of the property.

First, make sure they are certified to do the work that you need.
- If you need a property to be tested:
- Make certain that the company has been certified (By the CDPHE) as well as the consultant they are planning to send out to conduct the testing is certified. These certifications last for 2 years, so make sure that they are not expired. Prior to any work preformed, ask them to provide their certifications.
-If you need a property to be decontaminated:
- Make certain that the company has been certified (By the CDPHE) as well as ALL of the workers they are planning to send out to decontaminate are certified. Additionally one of the workers will need to be certified as a decontamination supervisor. These certifications last for 2 years, so make sure that they are not expired. Prior to any work preformed, ask them to provide their certifications.
Making sure that they are certified will get you someone who is qualified to do the work properly, safely and efficiently.
