Thermal Imaging (Infrared) Inspections

Infrared inspection cameras are powerful tools for quickly finding moisture in structures and for making sure all moisture has been removed after drying the building. Infrared detection is a high-tech way to locate suspicious areas, which can then be checked with a moisture meter. Not all moisture is visible to the naked eye, and Anderson Group does what it takes to make sure all drying projects are done thoroughly.

Construction Defect Investigation

When dealing with construction defects, the forensic construction defect expert witness team of Anderson Group has represented clients on small claims to those in excess of $200MM. Anderson Group is comprised of highly experienced forensic expert witnesses and expert consultants who offer the legal profession, insurance companies, and banks expert technical services in cases dealing with construction defects. Poor quality workmanship often manifests as water infiltration through some portion of the building structure. Cracks in foundations, floor slabs, walls, dry rotting of wood or other building materials, termite or other pest infestations, electrical and mechanical problems, plumbing leaks and back-ups, lack of appropriate sound insulation and/or fire-resistive construction between adjacent housing units, and more. When dealing with construction defects, the ability of a construction defect expert witness to see all sides of every defective construction issue is a most important attribute, but the ability to communicate information in a clear and cogent fashion to one’s counsel is indispensable. Anderson Group has mastered this process.

Dry Ice Blasting

Dry ice blasting is a process that Anderson Group uses in which particles of solid carbon dioxide, commonly known as dry ice, is propelled at high velocity to impact and clean equipment, machinery, and structures without damage to electrical wiring, hoses, sensors, or other delicate components. Traditional abrasive blasting methods clean through a chiseling action, like using a pick, but can damage the surface below. Dry ice, on the other hand, might better be compared to a spatula as it lifts away the contaminant. The dry ice pierces the contaminant and ‘explodes’ into its gas form instantly upon striking the substrate beneath. This harmless explosion creates a shock wave between the coating and the surface and literally pops off contaminants from the inside out.

New Construction Drying
Anderson Group offers climate control. Climate control on your construction project can help accelerate concrete curing and reduce moisture levels in concrete flooring, allow for the acclamation and installation of millwork and other moisture sensitive materials before initiation of the permanent HVAC system, dramatically reduce microbial growth, prevent contamination of permanent HVAC system prior to move-in, deter warping and damage to mill work and permanent wood fixtures and gymnasium floors, prevent condensation on interior surfaces, aid in the drying of mud and natural elements, as well as ground thawing, keep the project on schedule, avoid moisture-related delays, and promote uniform dry times on sheetrock compound, paint and sprayed-on fireproofing.

Clean Crawl Space

The problem with a dirt or vented concrete crawlspace is that as warm air rises in your home, it brings up with it the air that was previously in your crawl space, including moisture and mold spores, as well as anything else that may be airborne down there. Sealing the crawl space from the earth and outside air is the solution to moisture and dampness in the home. Some contractors and homeowners will simply put down a thin, non-UV-resistant plastic liner, like a 6-mil plastic liner. This really has no effect as there’s still too much opportunity for air to enter from (air is very small and can come through crawl space doors or hatches, crawl space vents, pipe penetrations, porous concrete walls, the hollow cores of blocks, and various other gaps and holes. Anderson Group has solutions to all these challenges.

Shrink Wrap

Anderson Group uses shrink wrap as a temporary enclosure for construction and maintenance projects to protect workers and equipment from the elements and contain construction debris from escaping into the environment. Anderson Group’s containment looks clean, neat, and professional reflecting a positive job site image.

Bed Bugs & Therma PureHeat Treatment

Bed bugs reach epidemic proportions. Dr. Michael Potter, University of Kentucky entomologist, was quoted recently as saying, “Bed bugs are just going ballistic everywhere. It is going to really rock this country.” Bed bugs are found today in hotels, apartments, dorm rooms, delivery vehicles, dry cleaners, jails, hospitals, churches, cruise ships, furniture rental stores and private homes. Rare for a time, bed bug bites are becoming all too common. Because pesticides are losing their effectiveness at treating bed bugs, the search is on for new ways to eliminate infestations. ThermaPureHeat® kills bed bugs without harming the environment; using heat to kill bed bugs and the eggs they leave behind. And, since ThermaPureHeat® can be effective in a single bed bug treatment, it can be more cost effective than chemical alternatives which can often require replacement of bedding and even mattresses.
