Environmental Inspections Services
In today’s world, environmental concerns are more prominent than ever. While most homes are safe, there are several potential environmental issues that buyers should be aware of. Our environmental inspection services help identify these concerns to ensure your home is safe and healthy.
Water Quality Testing
Water quality is one of the most common concerns for homeowners. Our basic water quality tests check for:
- pH levels
- Water hardness
- Presence of fluoride, sodium, iron, and manganese
- Bacteria such as E. coli
- Lead and arsenic levels
Lead-Based Paint
Homes built before 1978 may contain lead-based paint. If the paint is in good condition (not cracking or peeling), it typically poses no hazard. However, if the paint is hazardous, it must be either removed or sealed to eliminate the risk.
Radon Testing
Radon is a radioactive gas that results from the natural decay of uranium in the soil. Almost all homes have some level of radon present. Our tests can determine if radon levels exceed safe limits. If they do, a radon reduction system will need to be installed.
Asbestos Inspections
In older homes built over 30 years ago, asbestos was commonly used in insulation and other building materials. If asbestos is releasing fibers into the air, it must be removed or repaired by a professional specializing in asbestos cleanup. However, if the asbestos material is intact and not releasing fibers, it poses no hazard and can be left undisturbed.

James Huggie best inspector out there. In tune and ready to help you with all your inspection needs. I would highly recommend universal inspect to my friends and family. He did a complete and thorough inspection on the property that we were purchasing and we were very happy with the results. Thank you and remember to ask for James.
Very glad that I found out this inspection company. The inspector James was very responsive and diligent. He showed up on time and was very patient walking through every finding he had. The price is also the most reasonable one among all the inspectors I’ve called. Highly recommend!!
