Competencies of Moisture Control Services (MCS)
MCS is often engaged by retirement homes and private owners due to medical conditions of the occupier (e.g. lack of control over bodily functions). MCS removes, decontaminates, clean and deodorises the affected and surrounding areas.
Due to a wide variety of situations substantial blood loss over floors, walls, content items etc are encountered. A thorough decontamination, clean and deodorise of the affected and surrounding areas is required for this type of trauma site. Disposing of contaminated items is usually required and performed by MCS.
Workplace or home accidents, homicide, suicide and natural death are the main causes for a deceased site. Situations encountered vary from blood loss, substantial odour and serious contamination due to the decomposition process. MCS has the experience, procedures and resources necessary to deal with the variety of deceased sites encountered, many of which have remained undiscovered for several days, if not longer. All contaminated sites undergo a proven decontamination procedure removing pathogens and body fluids which also involves cleaning and deodorizing the affected and surrounding area. In the more extreme cases a section of skirting board and floor are cut out as well. MCS will itemize and responsibly dispose of all contaminated items within the site.
MCS provides a professional service and has developed a thorough, methodical approach which is critical in ensuring total decontamination. We offer a discreet, professional service – the aim being to undergo the necessary procedures while being understanding and empathetic towards our clients.
