Send the address, rooms, suspect materials and timeline. We confirm the sampling scope and quote before booking.

Review your results

Written results are available 5 to 7 business days after testing. We explain the findings for the materials sampled.

Results apply to the materials sampled. Let us know about any contractor or building-management requirements before the visit.

Before you renovate an Alexandria home

From Old Town rowhouses to Del Ray homes and West End condos, start with the work you have planned. Tell us which floors, ceilings or insulation will be disturbed so we can discuss the materials to sample.

For a rowhouse with a separate basement entrance, identify the floor and entrance we should use. In a condo, check access arrangements with building management. If work crosses into a shared space, let us know before booking so we can confirm the scope.
