Service 01

Indoor environmental assessments

Start with what the building can tell us.

Discuss this service →

For a new concern, an unexplained change, or a property that needs a clearer environmental picture. We review the history you provide and examine authorized, reasonably accessible areas.

What the scope can include

  • Property history and records review
  • Visual observations and representative photographs
  • Moisture observations with locations and relevant field conditions
  • A proposed investigation or sampling scope when further information is needed

What you receive

A documented assessment of the agreed areas, with limitations and recommended next steps. The proposal identifies whether a written report is included.

Accessible observations cannot establish every condition behind finishes or reconstruct an undocumented past event.

Service 02

Mold, moisture & odor investigations

Find the concern. Understand its context.

Discuss this service →

For visible growth, water staining, recurring dampness, or persistent odors. We examine affected areas and available water-event information to help define what should be investigated or addressed.

What the scope can include

  • Review of reported leaks, drying and prior work
  • Moisture mapping when included in the scope
  • Documentation of affected materials and accessible interfaces
  • Recommendations for further qualified investigation where needed

What you receive

A clearer description of observed conditions, evidence gaps, and the environmental work that may be warranted.

An odor alone does not identify a contaminant. Source repair, concealed access and remediation are separately arranged.

Service 03

Sampling & laboratory interpretation

A sample should answer a defined question.

Discuss this service →

When sampling will help the assessment or verification plan, IESC defines the method, locations, reference conditions and laboratory arrangements before collection.

What the scope can include

  • Project-specific air or surface sampling, when appropriate
  • Sample identification, location records and chain of custody
  • Review of laboratory findings alongside field observations
  • An explanation of what the selected methods can and cannot establish

What you receive

Relevant laboratory findings interpreted within the agreed scope, with collection conditions and limitations identified.

A sampling result is a record of the sampled location and time. Sample count follows the investigation plan; square footage alone does not determine it.

Service 04

Remediation protocols & written findings

Turn the findings into usable direction.

Discuss this service →

For owners and contractors who need an environmental scope before remediation begins. The protocol connects assessment evidence to affected areas, recommended work and completion criteria.

What the scope can include

  • Findings, photographs and relevant laboratory information
  • Source-control needs and affected-area descriptions
  • Supported material treatment or removal recommendations
  • Documentation requirements and verification criteria

What you receive

A project-specific written report or remediation protocol that gives the team a common reference for the environmental scope.

Contractors remain responsible for their means and methods. Engineering, structural design and repairs require separate qualified services.

Service 05

Post-remediation verification

Evaluate the work against agreed criteria.

Discuss this service →

After the contractor reports completion and the site is ready, IESC reviews accessible work areas and completion records. Sampling is included when the written verification plan calls for it.

What the scope can include

  • Readiness and completion-document review
  • Follow-up visual observations and photographs
  • Specified sampling and laboratory-result review
  • Comparison with established project criteria

What you receive

Written findings explaining whether criteria were met, not met, or could not be determined for the evaluated areas.

A passing result is not promised. Verification does not establish future conditions, absence of every contaminant, or individual health risk. Repeat visits require an agreed scope.

Service 06

Records review & project coordination

Make the evidence easier to follow.

Discuss this service →

For larger properties, multiple phases, or projects with scattered reports and photographs. IESC helps owners and project teams organize the environmental questions and clarify the next decision.

What the scope can include

  • Review of reports, photographs and relevant work records
  • Evidence chronology and identification of missing information
  • Environmental scope and estimate review
  • Technical site meetings and contractor coordination as authorized

What you receive

Organized technical documentation and project-specific recommendations that distinguish reported history, observations, laboratory findings and professional opinion.

Technical coordination does not include insurance-coverage decisions, claim negotiation or legal representation. Specialty services are confirmed individually.

A coordinated program

Assess. Document. Verify.

A full program can combine an initial assessment, agreed sampling, a findings and protocol report, a follow-up visit, and a final verification report. Each phase has a defined purpose, price and deliverable.

01 / Define

Confirm the property, accessible areas, questions, qualifications, fees and proposed timing.

02 / Investigate

Document the observed conditions and relevant evidence. Explain recommendations and any remaining uncertainty.

03 / Follow through

Coordinate the agreed next step and, where commissioned, evaluate completed work against written criteria.

Inside the documentation

More than a test result.
A record you can use.

When a written report is part of your engagement, it should connect the project question with the evidence and the next decision. The proposal defines the report you will receive.

Before you begin

Common questions.

Do I always need mold testing?

No. The assessment should determine whether sampling will answer a useful question. EPA guidance explains that visible mold often does not require sampling and that no federal airborne mold limits have been established. Read EPA’s sampling guidance ↗

How are services priced?

The written proposal identifies the assessed area, visits, sampling, laboratory work, reporting and any additional coordination. Inspection, sampling and written reports may be separate items. Confirm the full scope before authorizing work.

Can I book a site inspection immediately?

Start with a consultation request. Site visits are confirmed after the property location, access, environmental concern, scope and fees are reviewed. A consultation request alone does not reserve a site visit.

Does IESC perform the repair work?

This service offering covers environmental consulting, documentation and verification. Repair and remediation work require separate arrangements. Any relevant contractor relationship is addressed when the project scope is defined.

Can a report guarantee the property is safe?

Reports describe the evaluated conditions and the agreed project criteria. They do not establish every concealed condition, future conditions or an individual’s health risk.

What should I gather before contacting Charlie?

Have the property location, approximate assessed area, a short description of the concern, relevant water-event dates and a list of prior reports or work. Start with a brief description; arrange a suitable transfer method for confidential documents.
