Soil Testing and Environmental Assessment

Contaminated soil or ground-water can force a property, residential or commercial, to be abandoned until the chemicals are removed and the property is re-assessed.

Soil Testing for Commercial and Residential Properties

As a home or business owner, the last thing you want is to be forced to abandon a construction project because of contaminated soil or groundwater on your site.

Get Soil Testing Done Before You Build on Your Residential or Commercial Property

JAD Environmental Services is a leading regional company for scientific soil testing and analysis. We look for the presence of lead, asbestos, mold, toxic gases and vapours, groundwater contaminants, heavy metals, petrochemical contamination, natural-source water infiltration, and other environmental pollutants or intrusive elements.

You may need soil testing for the following reasons:

  • You’re a commercial or residential real estate developer buying property consisting of landfill.
  • You’re an individual planning to build a home on landfill whose origins are unknown.
  • You’re building on a re-zoned commercial lot.
  • You own or reside on a property you believe to be contaminated, because of past use or signs of pollution.
  • You know there are contaminants but not which ones. This will determine how you remediate the property.
