The crew agrees with the owner on the area, the material and the goals. Questions about insurers, inspectors and timing are welcome at this stage.

3. Clean the damage

Stained concrete, soaked soil and contaminated surfaces are cleaned or removed. Tools are decontaminated or disposed of after use.

4. Decontaminate and document

Tools and surfaces are cleaned or discarded, waste is packed and the owner receives a summary of what was done.
