The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has reported that indoor levels of some pollutants can be two to five times higher than typical outdoor levels — and Americans spend most of their time indoors. The EPA's indoor air guidance is the framework we assess against: identify the pollutant sources, measure what's actually in the air, and fix causes rather than symptoms.
Indoor air problems rarely have one cause, so we assess across the contaminants we're equipped to measure and remediate.
Air and surface sampling to determine whether spore levels indoors are elevated relative to outdoors, and which species are present. Often paired with a moisture inspection, because mold in the air means water somewhere in the building. See our dedicated mold testing service.
In pre-1980s buildings — or after damage or renovation in them — airborne fiber sampling tells you whether asbestos-containing materials are shedding into the air. This is ES America's home discipline: see our asbestos air monitoring service for the full methodology.
Screening for the chemical vapor load from paints, adhesives, new finishes, stored chemicals, or off-gassing materials — frequent culprits behind odor and irritation complaints, and a focus of EPA indoor air guidance.
A measured result against the EPA's 4.0 pCi/L action level. Radon is, per the EPA, the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S. — and the only way to know a building's level is to test. Full service detail at radon testing.
Humidity, visible condensation, and HVAC observations that explain why readings are what they are — the EPA's IAQ framework treats ventilation and source control as the primary levers.
The same measured-data discipline, tuned to who needs the answer.
An IAQ assessment answers the question behind the question: is this building making us feel this way? You get numbers, plain-language explanations, and a prioritized fix list.
For employers, property managers, and schools, the assessment produces documentation for responding to occupant complaints credibly — measured data, an action plan, and a contractor who can execute it.
Not sure testing is warranted? Call and describe the situation — we'll tell you honestly whether an assessment makes sense.
ES America has measured and remediated environmental hazards since 2009 across Georgia, South Carolina, and Alabama. We are licensed, bonded ($1M/$3M), and insured, EPA/AHERA/ASHARA certified (#20616), and state-licensed for asbestos work in all three states (GA ASBRN-382008 · SC CO-000859 · AL ASB40262). Air sampling, laboratory chains of custody, and clearance criteria are daily practice here — an IAQ assessment simply turns that discipline toward your whole building.
For homes: sampling tailored to your symptoms and building history — mold spores, radon screening, VOCs — with a written report that tells you what (if anything) needs fixing, in plain language.
For offices and commercial buildings: systematic sampling, laboratory documentation suitable for compliance files, and an action plan you can hand to leadership — or straight to our remediation crews.
Occupied-building scheduling, sampling across larger footprints, and documentation that holds up with parents, tenants, boards, and regulators alike.
A tailored combination of inspection and sampling — typically mold spores, asbestos fibers where the building age warrants it, VOC screening, radon screening, and moisture/ventilation observations — followed by laboratory analysis and a written, plain-language report.
Common triggers: persistent musty or chemical odors, symptoms that improve when you leave the building, recent water damage, renovation in a pre-1980s structure, or occupant complaints in a workplace. If you're unsure, call and describe the situation — we'll tell you honestly whether testing makes sense.
It depends on the building size and which contaminants are in scope. We quote in writing after the intake conversation — and we don't recommend sampling you don't need.
The EPA treats it as one: indoor concentrations of some pollutants can run two to five times outdoor levels, and indoor pollutants are associated with effects ranging from irritation and headaches to serious long-term risks — radon, per the EPA, is the second leading cause of lung cancer in the U.S.
You get the report and a prioritized plan. If remediation is warranted, ES America can scope and perform it — mold remediation, asbestos abatement, or radon mitigation — and verify the result with follow-up sampling.
