Construction Fumes

Recommended Posts

We are in the final stages of our renovation here at the office. What was supposed to be done during our two week holiday break still has a few more weeks to be done (they haven't even scheduled the detail work guys to come in yet).

Of course there was the typical white dust over everything, but it's been the fumes that have been killer. Last week the oil based Killz was applied and the fumes were overwhelming, esp in my office since I am the closest to the work. I didn't realize how bad it was until I stood up to meet one of my appointments....I forgot how much that stuff can get to you.

Today they are putting down the carpet and the glue they are using is down right toxic. Two people have already left the office due to headaches and now it's starting to get to me. Thank god its a 'nice' winter day at 43F - I opened all the windows and propped the front door open.

At this pace the construction should still be going on during LP and WFFC.





That's how it normally works. Plus......you'll have longer exposure to the fumes and DANGEROUS conditions by then. Should make it easier for a Doc to prescribe a LOOOONG vacation to recover and some jump ticket money from the company. :D

esp since the new owners of the space we are in now will have to do construction as well and the HVAC is connected between the two spaces.
