Phase I Environmental Site Assessments
Phase I Environmental Site Assessments identify recognized environmental conditions and assess potential liabilities. Our process includes site inspections, regulatory database reviews, and property history research. We provide detailed reports to help clients make informed decisions about property transactions or closures while ensuring compliance with ASTM standards and regulatory requirements.
Phase II Environmental Site Assessments
Phase II Assessments determine contamination levels in soil or groundwater following Phase I findings. We conduct sampling using hand tools or drilling equipment to analyze impacted areas. Our reports guide remediation strategies, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and providing actionable data for site cleanup or development planning.
Environmental Remediation
Our remediation services employ proven technologies to address environmental contamination. We design cost-effective solutions for soil and groundwater remediation, including geoprobe investigations and monitoring well installations. Our goal is to minimize business disruption while expediting real estate transactions and ensuring regulatory compliance through comprehensive feasibility studies and risk assessments.
Hazardous Material Surveys
We identify and quantify hazardous materials in buildings through detailed surveys. Our reports include removal plans compliant with federal, state, and local regulations. With 20+ years of experience, we help clients achieve budget and scheduling goals while ensuring safe handling and disposal of hazardous substances during remediation projects.

We provide asbestos surveys, abatement design, and air monitoring services. Certified inspectors identify asbestos-containing materials, while our team designs remediation plans compliant with EPA protocols. We offer operations and maintenance programs to manage asbestos risks, ensuring occupant safety and regulatory compliance during all stages of abatement projects.

Questions
What's the difference between environmental consulting and remediation?
Environmental consultants identify and interpret environmental concerns, while remediation firms implement solutions to address contamination.
Do you conduct environmental testing?
We perform in-house sampling for most tests and use trusted subcontractors for heavy machinery requirements.
Is there a cost for initial consultations?
We offer free initial consultations with written proposals detailing all billable services before work begins.
What are asbestos health risks?
Asbestos poses risks when disturbed, releasing fibers into the air. Undamaged materials generally don't require removal.
Do you perform lead abatement?
We're not certified for lead abatement but can connect you with trusted contractors we've worked with previously.
How long do environmental assessments take?
Time and cost depend on property size and type. We accommodate tight deadlines and provide customized quotes.
