Our Inspection Process

Each inspection is conducted by accredited professionals following strict protocols established by the EPA’s Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) and corresponding state regulations. Our approach includes:

  • Initial Assessment: A site walkthrough to identify suspect materials and sampling needs.
  • Sample Collection: Careful extraction of bulk samples from building materials such as flooring, insulation, ceiling tiles, and pipe wraps.
  • Laboratory Analysis: Samples are analyzed by NVLAP-accredited laboratories using polarized light microscopy (PLM) or transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
  • Comprehensive Reporting: Findings are documented in an easy-to-read report detailing material types, asbestos content, sample locations, and recommendations for management or abatement.
