The young lady I spoke to on the phone was extremely kind and informative. Any question I had she could answer. She represents the company extremely well! We need more people like her.

Very disappointed with how 5 micron left my walls and building agree inspection Usually a company would take carpet up in the corner of the room they did it right in the middle 47 cuts and slashes Gave them a chance to make repairs - they refused Be careful when using them and always have someone who knows what they are doing onsite Refused to fix any of it Costing me thousands- they said the building was going to be completely renovated - reason for sloppy job but I never told them that

5 microns was so easy to work with. Absolutely loved Carole! She was so through and educating, a true pleasure to work. I was happy to give them a call and request her to come back for mold clearance.

On time smart great explanations. These folks know their stuff. Kind and don't make you feel stupid. General inspector and real estate agent very impressed as well. Can't go wrong with these guys. Bit expensive but you get what you pay for here.

โญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธโญ๏ธ I had some concerns for mold in my office after gone through some water damage a year back, and I contacted 5 microns, and they came in the following day and ran all the necessary tests. A couple days later they emailed my results with the breakdown of everything I needed to know and how to take care of my concerns! Pascal was also very professional! Highly recommend!

Pascal was very professional and attentive to our needs. He was also empathetic to our situation. He took quite a bit of time explaining things to us. The report is very detailed and professional too. Thanks 5 Microns

What Is Indoor Environmental Testing?

Indoor environmental testing evaluates buildings for environmental conditions that may affect indoor air quality, occupant health, and building safety.

Environmental testing may identify contaminants such as:

  • Mold spores

  • Asbestos-containing materials

  • Indoor air pollutants

  • Chemical residues

  • Particulate contamination

These assessments help property owners, contractors, and facility managers understand environmental conditions within a building and determine whether corrective action may be necessary.

Testing helps identify environmental issues that may not be visible during a standard building inspection.
