Specialty Testing and Detection Services

Radon Testing

Radon comes from the natural (radioactive) breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water and gets into the air you breathe. Gas from Radon can be found all over the U.S. It can get into any type of building—homes, offices, and schools—and result in a high indoor radon level. But you and your family are most likely to get your greatest exposure at home, where you spend most of your time. Radon is estimated to cause thousands of lung cancer deaths in the U.S. each year. Testing for Radon is the only way to find Radon Gas.

EMF & RF Testing

Electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) and wireless radiation (Radiofrequencies or “RF”) have now become the largest, and most hazardous set of building toxins. While it is impossible to completely avoid EMFs in society, we can find the sources and reduce exposure in critical spaces. Symptoms and levels of severity can vary from person to person. Our Job is to identify the intensity and source of the EMF or RF Signals.

Moisture Detection

Moisture or water entry anywhere in a home can cause severe damage, health concern and significant expense. Water Intrusion entry can be caused by many things such as plumbing leaks, roof leaks, condensation lines and exterior wall infiltration.

Our job is to identify the issues and recommend a solution for correction. We use our 20 years of experience, knowledge, Water Moisture Detection Equipment and IR Technology to help us diagnose the problem.

General IAQ Testing – Test to identify and/or clear properties for many different type VOC’s, organic, man made, biological IAQ Sample Types

Sampling Techniques Used When Completing Mold Inspections & Testing Assessments

Common Testing

Mold Inspections & Testing – Common test to determine the Type or Genre of the mold that maybe present in a building. Types of Test include Air Spore Trap, Surface Tests (Swab or Tape Lift), and Bulk Testing, Viable or Non-Viable Tests are Available.
Air Sampling Traps – Technique that captures particles in the air using a vacuum pump, this sample is sent out a lab to determine what has been captured. There are different types of sample that can be taken as there is a test for almost everything for mold spores, allergens, asbestos, organic VOC,s, man made particles, etc.
TVOC – Total Volatile Organic Compounds: Gases released in the air that can be hazardous to ones health
TMVOC – Total Mold Volatile Organic Compounds: Mold gases released into the ambient air.
ERMi Test – Environmental Relative Moldiness index (ERMI) was developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Research and Development (ORD). Test is used as a research tool to investigate mold contamination in homes.
Radon Testing – Radon is a naturally occurring gas that can only be detected through professional testing. Most commonly forming in the soil beneath a home. Radon can rise to dangerous levels and is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. We can perform this test to determine if radon is present.

Specialty Testing

Water Testing – Testing that meets FHA or VA minimal standards is available for any real estate transaction which includes E. Coli, Bacteria, Nitrate, Nitrite, Lead and Turbidity with a 2 day Turn Around.
Dust Samples – Process uses a vacuum or vacuum pump to with a dust trap used to capture dust and in some cases debris in a trap which it then sent to a lab for analysis.
Allergen Samples – Dust Sampling, Dust Mites, Dander, Insect Parts, Allergens, Mold Spores, Silica, etc.
Formaldehyde – (Air and Bulk Sampling) A colorless strong smelling gas found in water based solutions, chemicals, particleboard, glues, paper products, etc. It is a carcinogen, cancer hazard.
Legionella – A respiratory disease caused by Legionella bacteria. Sometimes the bacteria cause a serious type of pneumonia (lung infection) called Legionnaires’ disease.
Methamphetamine – An unsafe street drug that can made in homes, apartments, and condominiums that can leave a residue that is not visible to the eye. We are able to identify this substance in homes by performing a specific test for Methamphetamine’s.
Other Tests Available – Silica, Materials, Asbestos & Minerals, Microbiology, Environmental, Lead & Metals, Bacteria, etc.
