Preventive Maintenance Inspection
A Win-Win Proposition
If current legislative trends continue, the home building industry will soon be compelled to inspect all new homes for toxic mold. If your company already has a preventive maintenance inspection program in place, you’ll be points ahead in terms of avoiding lawsuits and having to scramble to hire and educate inspectors. What’s more, home buyers will perceive this as an added value selling point and will appreciate you going the extra mile to make sure their new home is safe from toxic mold.
Environmental Assurance’s preventive maintenance inspection program provides builders and building owners with a golden opportunity to absolve themselves from liability for mold contamination by establishing that the home was mold-free when the owners took possession. This effectively prevents after-the-fact lawsuits that may arise from contamination brought on by shoddy do-it-yourself modifications done by home owners after the sale. In addition, home owners who are educated about sources of mold contamination can take preventive steps to control moisture that may lead to mold growth.
Environmental Assurance’s corporate mission is closely aligned with the Independent Insurance Agents of America, which recommends that the best loss control efforts for home builders and building owners are to take the following steps:
• Insure proper maintenance
• Provide 24-hour response to water damage, including on-site containment and removal
• Answer home owners’ questions
Environmental Assurance currently provides inspection and environmental certification services to major Southern Nevada home builders who are realizing benefits in terms of enhanced customer satisfaction and reduced risk of litigation.
