Growth Industry

As an early leader and niche provider in the indoor air quality and bioaerosol consulting field, TGE established its reputation as a reliable and proficient resource to the healthcare, pharmaceutical, and research industries over the past 11 years. Given recent heightened awareness of mold throughout not only the south but across the U.S. within commercial structures, schools, aged buildings and structures that have been affected by flood damage, TGE seamlessly transitioned its knowledge base and conveyed its expertise to assist all such sectors – and has become a sought-after leader in mold consulting and industrial hygiene of the built environment.

With expertise in building systems and finishes, TGE assisted hundreds of owners, equity management companies and prospective purchasers in diagnosing and properly addressing moisture intrusion challenges and contingent mold damage. As a valued member of the diagnostic and corrective action team, TGE provided expertise during the construction as well as build-back phase. The staff of TGE routinely prepares abatement project specifications and oversees site activity as the owner’s representative, often following up with post remediation testing to ensure quality control.

Emerging Needs

Site-specific “Building Materials Management Plans” have become an emerging service for TGE over the last few years, with the intended purpose of managing potential risk of mold damage during construction giving third party investors and lending institutions peace of mind.

As a professional mold consulting firm, TGE has been called upon repeatedly by its established clientele of insurance underwriters and equity owners (including Fortune 100/500 companies) to provide the first line of defense following storm-related disasters. With related expertise in asbestos and hazardous materials management, TGE provided guidance to many building owners (including major healthcare facilities and commercial office buildings) following catastrophic events throughout Texas, Florida, Alabama, Louisiana and other coastal states.
