Overhead Dust Remediation
The
Scope
Two expansive woodworking studios occupy 7,500 square feet of dedicated space. The primary facility features 20 ft. ceilings, requiring scissor lifts for elevated work and streamlined operations.
Accumulated dust covered overhead systems—HVAC units, plumbing, electrical conduits, and support beams from previous museum use. Rigorous containment and systematic remediation prevented airborne particles from contaminating the active production zone below.
The Process
After thorough assessment and digital imaging, we mapped a detailed plan to deliver service on schedule with minimal disruption to your daily life.
Our staging protected your space with plastic sheeting barriers. We misted each sheet before remediation so dust clung to plastic instead of spreading throughout your home, keeping adjacent areas completely clean. This containment method prevents cross-contamination to bedrooms, kitchens, and other sensitive zones.
We deployed commercial vacuums with multi-stage HEPA filtration to capture particles down to 0.3 microns—smaller than bacteria. Frequent bag changes maintained peak equipment performance, ensuring effective results within your timeframe and protecting your air quality for your family's health.
The Results
Once our team finished, museum staff conducted a detailed inspection. Every requirement passed without exception. Zero rework needed—proving our commitment to flawless execution.
