Environmental Inspections

We are what we breathe

Residential indoor air quality has become an issue in the last two decades because of the large proportion of time people spend indoors, and increased awareness about air quality. Concerns are based on the possible relationships to health effects such as headache, nausea, tiredness and difficult breathing.

This list of indoor air hazards includes:

  • Microbiological Contamination (mould, bacteria, dust mites)
  • Combustion Products (e.g. carbon monoxide)
  • Formaldehyde (from sources such as textiles, particle board and adhesives)
  • Radon (radioactive gas from the earth)
  • Household Products (such as volatile organics found in paints solvents, etc.)
  • Asbestos (in older homes: pipe insulation, fireproofing, acoustic material, floor tiles)
  • Lead (from lead based paint dust)
  • Electromagnetic fields

We can test your home or office for these hazards, provide detailed report and recommendations to mitigate the issues.
