HVJ offers consulting services on hazards within facilities-namely, asbestos-containing materials, lead-based paint, and indoor air quality. Our firm has specialists in each area that are experienced, state licensed, and accredited with the EPA.

For building owners with asbestos in-place, we can design a program for managing the hazard. Or if a building is about to be renovated, we can design and monitor an asbestos abatement project.

Like asbestos, lead too is getting more and more attention from building owners and management companies. New regulations governing lead in public housing and daycare facilities, along with OSHA regulations regarding lead exposure in construction and renovations have heightened the awareness. HVJ conducts surveys to find and quantify the presence of lead. We can design and oversee an operations and management (O&M) plan or carry out a full-scale abatement. We have performed literally hundreds of abatements.

Finally, air quality is getting tremendous attention thanks to fungi, or as most people call it, mold. Like other hazards, we investigate, evaluate, and remediate biological contaminants. We employ state-of-the-art procedures, and follow EPA and New York City Department of Health guidelines-the strictest in the country.
