Your Fastest Path to Clearance.


We provide comprehensive mold inspections and air/surface sampling to determine the presence, type, and extent of mold contamination. Our testing is often performed in response to water damage, insurance claims, or tenant concerns—and is backed by clear reporting and lab analysis. After remediation, we offer third-party clearance testing to verify that mold has been successfully removed and conditions meet industry standards. All reports include pass/fail results and are suitable for insurance or regulatory documentation.

We perform asbestos inspections to identify hazardous materials before renovation, demolition, or repair work begins. Our team collects bulk samples from suspect materials and submits them to an accredited laboratory following AHERA and NIOSH protocols. When asbestos is found, we also provide custom abatement protocols that outline proper removal procedures in compliance with state and federal regulations.
After abatement, we conduct clearance testing—using PCM or TEM analysis as required—to confirm the area is safe for re-occupancy and that air quality meets regulatory standards.

Our lead-based paint testing services help identify potential lead hazards in residential and commercial properties, particularly those built before 1978. We offer paint chip, dust wipe, and XRF testing to evaluate suspected lead-containing materials and support informed decisions before renovation, repair, or other work begins.
We provide clear documentation and laboratory results to help property owners, managers, and contractors understand the findings and determine appropriate next steps.

Following a fire, smoke damage can leave behind invisible but harmful residues. We perform soot testing to determine the presence and extent of particulate contamination on surfaces and in the air. Our testing is often used to support insurance claims, guide cleaning efforts, and verify whether areas have been impacted by smoke exposure—even in spaces without visible damage.
We provide detailed lab reports with sample results and professional recommendations to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.

When the source of property damage isn't clear, identifying where it originated and what caused it can be critical to determining the next step. SMS provides cause and origin investigations for water losses and other property-related damage, helping clients understand and document the conditions that contributed to the loss.
Using field observations, moisture assessment, and our restoration-industry experience, we provide clear findings and professional documentation to support insurance claims, restoration decisions, and next steps.

Nicotine, tobacco smoke, and drug-related activity can leave behind chemical residues long after the source is gone. We provide environmental testing to identify nicotine and residues associated with drugs of abuse on surfaces within a property.
Testing can help document suspected activity, evaluate potential contamination, and verify conditions following cleaning or remediation. We provide detailed laboratory results and professional recommendations to help you determine the next steps and move forward with confidence.
