Environmental Inspections and Solutions Inc.

ABOUT US

Environmental Inspections and Solutions, Inc. is now celebrating its 17th year in the environmental business. We thank all of our colleagues and clients for their support and patronage.

EIS has served the So Cal community since 1992. Our team of Certified Indoor Air Quality professionals will serve you with our in depth experience and state-of-the-art instrumentation. We can assist you in resolving today's problems and help you to prevent future challenges through innovative problem-solving and practical solutions. Making a structure truly healthy and habitable for adults, children, and pets requires a number of forensic investigative tools. An understanding of the conditions that created the problem and the transport mechanisms involved in spreading the problem is crucial to finding real and lasting solutions.

EIS inspects homes and commercial buildings, addressing all aspects of the environment that can be an issue to the inhabitants. Our inspections are directed to assessing any environmental problems and to providing strategies and priorities for correcting them. We are your solutions team.

EIS was established in 1992 in response to the widespread environmental issues in design and construction. Microbial growth in a house or office does not tell the whole story of a problem, and efforts to get rid of visible mold often fail to address its underlying causes.

Our staff of highly experienced, skilled, trained professionals uses state-of-the-art instrumentation in our investigative work. We have conducted over 2,500 building surveys for business and building owners, property and risk managers, physicians, schools, state and local governmental agencies, insurance companies, law firms and the general public. We have also done environmental assessments on corporate jets and luxury yachts. We have conducted surveys throughout Southern California, as well as projects in Florida, Utah, Washington, Texas, and Idaho.

EIS has established a network of affiliated experts throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe to satisfy your project needs.
