Environmental Consulting & Testing
Environmental
Certainty
Before You Build
Asbestos, lead, mold, radon and indoor air quality — inspected, tested and cleared by certified specialists, with reports that hold up to regulators, lenders and courts.
What We Do
Precision environmental testing for high-stakes decisions
Inspections & Testing
Find what’s in the building before it becomes a shutdown. Asbestos, lead, mold, radon and meth, sampled and analyzed to state protocol.
- Asbestos inspections & spill delineation
- XRF lead-based paint testing
- Mold, radon and meth testing
- Soil and water sampling
Clearance Testing
Post-remediation sign-off that lets the contractor demobilize and the building reopen. Onsite PCM means same-day results.
- Asbestos clearances
- Mold clearances
- Lead clearances
- Methamphetamine clearances
Site Assessments
Due diligence that quantifies environmental risk and remediation cost before capital is committed to a property.
- Phase I and Phase II ESA
- Contaminated-soil assessment
- Groundwater monitoring
- Remedial action plans & closure
Project Management
Abatement designs, oversight and air monitoring from scope through sign-off — plus expert-witness and litigation support.
- Asbestos project designs & O&M plans
- Abatement oversight
- Regulatory compliance
- Expert-witness services

DS performed all final air clearances for asbestos abatement across the full complex ahead of demolition — coordinating sampling, onsite PCM analysis and documentation so the abatement contractor and demolition crew never waited on results.

Regulatory Violations
Same-Day Clearance
Our own CDPHE-certified lab and NIOSH-certified microscopists mean onsite PCM results the same day — your abatement contractor demobilises on schedule, not next week.
Regulatory Fluency
We know CDPHE Regulation 8 and the local permit desks cold. Our owner co-chairs CEPA’s Regulatory Affairs Committee. Our reports don’t come back for revision.
Cross-Certified Team
Every specialist is cross-trained across asbestos, lead, mold, radon and meth. One firm, one point of contact, whatever the site turns up.
Our Approach
A disciplined process,
every project
01
Call & Scope
We establish what the building is, what triggered the work, and which regulation applies. You get a fixed scope and price.
02
Site Inspection
A certified specialist surveys the site, identifies suspect materials, and collects samples under state protocol.
03
Lab Analysis
Samples go to our CDPHE-certified lab. Onsite PCM clearance results come back the same day.
04
Report & Strategy
You receive a regulator-ready report with findings, quantities and a recommended path — abatement scope, permitting, or all-clear.
05
Oversight & Clearance
We monitor abatement, run final clearances, and issue the documentation that closes the project out.
