Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring silicates with properties that make them useful for insulation or binding materials in buildings. When asbestos becomes damaged or disturbed, the fibers become airborne and can be inhaled. We provide asbestos testing to determine if a material in your Maryland home contains asbestos. There are six types of asbestos we test for:
  • Chrysotile
  • Amosite
  • Crocidolite
  • Anthophyllite
  • Tremolite
  • Actinolite

Radon is a colorless, odorless gas that seeps up from the ground and can accumulate to dangerous levels inside homes. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer in America. Several Maryland counties fall within EPA Zone 1, meaning elevated radon levels are common. Our professional radon testing services use continuous radon monitors for accurate readings over a 48-hour period.

Wood-destroying insects, particularly termites, can cause extensive structural damage to Maryland homes. Our termite inspection (WDI report) examines your property for signs of active infestations and previous damage from termites, carpenter ants, carpenter bees, and powder post beetles.
