Water And Microbial Control During Construction

As mold liability issues have spread throughout all industries, building developers, general contractors, construction managers and construction design professionals have become increasingly responsible for microbial related issues resulting from water damage during construction activity. From the design stage through the final phase of construction, Hillmann has created comprehensive programs to reduce the risk of your liability, avoid costly repairs and protect you from potential litigation due to property damage or personal injury attributed to water intrusion during construction.

The key to protecting yourself from potential liability related to microbial concerns is to limit and respond to water intrusion and subsequent mold growth in a proactive manner during the construction process. During the design phase, Hillmann offers prevention programs focusing on maintaining the integrity of the building's envelope by limiting moisture and water infiltration during construction. Hillmann will advise you on construction decisions as well as make you aware of potential conditions and site issues that will minimize your risk to mold related issues later on.

Hillmann will work with you to develop a water control program once active construction begins, including complete mold awareness training for contracting personnel. Our experts will provide education on how to identify on-site problems such as excess moisture, structural damage and exposed building materials before they become microbial conditions. Additionally, we will establish a monitoring program which audits the daily activities and record keeping of construction personnel to ensure that the proper sequencing, coordinating and protection of the work during construction is performed.
