Worthington Woods Apartments, Washington DC
Industrial hygienist services and oversight for the full renovation of the complex. We identified mold and moisture issues and wrote tailored remediation protocols for certified remediation contractors.
Years of moisture in vacant units.
The inspections found vacant units with mold growth across walls, window cavities and ceilings from years of moisture intrusion. The renovation needed a clear scope for each unit before work could move ahead.
- Walls and ceilings with visible growth.
- Window cavities wet from long-term intrusion.
- A full renovation waiting on the scope.
Unit by unit, from readings to verification.
Mapped each unit
Moisture readings and photos for every unit, so the extent of the damage was on record.
Opened the walls
Lower drywall removed under the windows where readings were elevated, to expose the wall cavity.
Wrote the protocol
A tailored remediation protocol issued for the certified remediation contractor.
Verified
Verification testing after the remediation work, with oversight through the renovation.
A clear scope for every unit.
The contractor worked from a written protocol for each unit, and the owner had readings and photos to back every decision. The renovation is restoring the apartments for current and future residents.
- Remediation protocols written for certified contractors.
