DENVER, March 28,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Issued as part of the Air
Pollution Control Division of the Colorado Department of Public
Health, Restoration 1 of West
Denver is now permitted to enter state regulated areas where
asbestos exposure has been identified to provide a non-salvageable
inventory and begin set-up to decontaminate salvageable
contents.
The requirements for achieving the General Abatement Contractor
certificate are stringent. Some of these requirements are as
follows:
- There are specific timelines for storage of asbestos-exposed
items.
- Equipment that is used for abatement cannot be used for other
purposes.
- Air monitoring tools must be calibrated on a regular and timely
basis.
- Shower filters must meet both state and local requirements.
- Manometers must be programed correctly to provide specific
data.
- Regular documentation is required.
- General Abatement Contractors must contact authorities prior to
a site visit.
In full compliance with state and federal regulations,
Restoration 1 of West Denver
technicians are cross trained in contents restoration and asbestos
abatement, allowing them to work side-by-side with other abatement
and/or restoration companies to resolve the contents portion of
claims for clients. This certificate also allows Restoration 1 of
West Denver to pull permits and
operate – prior to the start of other abatement companies. In
larger scale projects, the company can also partner with other
abatement companies to resolve issues more efficiently.
As a result of the GAC designation, fully trained technicians
from Restoration 1 of West Denver
have the authority to establish full containment of the area in
order to decontaminate and clear salvageable contents, including
soft goods. According to Jonathan
Adamson, Contents Division Manager for Restoration 1 of
West Denver, "Decontaminating
soft goods is a concept that is not often understood by the general
public. Most people believe that contents contaminated with
asbestos must be discarded. According to CO requirements described
under section III.T.2.d (iii & iv), soft goods may be
decontaminated. This includes, but is not limited to, carpets,
upholstery and clothing. The decontamination of soft goods matters
to clients because the process allows Restoration 1 of West Denver to save valuable and irreplaceable
items for clients, such as wedding dresses, Veteran's Memorial
flags, baptismal attire, and other vintage or sentimental
items."
As Restoration 1 of West Denver
continues to grow its professional capabilities, achieving GAC
status is important to providing top-level service to its clients.
The company strives to relieve clients of anxiety and stress during
difficult situations. Being able to provide full abatement services
increases its efficiencies and streamlines restoration
processes.

empathetic individuals who work tirelessly, and with compassion, to

integrity. According to Micah
Jefferson, President of Restoration 1 of West Denver, "we earn the trust of our
