Our role

Your lead inspection partner in New York City.

Environmental hazards can begin in a home, apartment building or workplace. The first useful step is an accurate diagnosis completed with precision and professionalism.

Our certified technicians inspect residential and commercial properties for lead-based hazards, using the appropriate field method and diagnostic equipment for the assignment.

We connect the technical work to the practical question: what was tested, what was found and what should the property owner, manager, buyer or occupant do next?
