Radon Testing
Testing is performed using EPA protocol for home sellers and buyers. A continuous radon monitor is placed in the home for a 48 hour minimum testing period.
A Sampling Report is issued with the radon levels by hour and an EPA Overall Radon Average for the sampling period.
Mold Screen Inspection with Air Samples
This is an initial step to determining if a home has a mold problem. The Inspector will perform a visual examination of all accessible areas of the residential home which is designed to identify current or past moisture problems which may lead to mold contamination. The client is encouraged to attend the entire inspection. Up to four air and/or surface samples will be collected and sent to an accredited laboratory for analysis. Laboratory results are available in approximately 3 business days. If the report analysis reveals elevated mold readings the next step is consultation with a Certified Industrial Hygienist for remediation.
Well Water Testing
Well water sampling includes collection of well water at the site which is delivered to the local health department for basic screening. Basic screening identifies the presence or absence of Chloroform and fecal bacteria. A more thorough screening is also available through an independent certified laboratory that will identify levels of heavy metals, chemicals and other potentially unsafe issues with the well water.
Re-Inspection
A visual examination of areas to be determined by the client designed to evaluate whether work requested in a contract addendum has been completed in a satisfactory manner. A copy of the contract addendum and the client, or the clients, representative must be present during the re inspection. A re-inspection report will be issued at the conclusion of the re-inspection.
