Due to the hazardous nature of asbestos and led paint, it is essential that highly trained and certified professionals conduct an inspection on even the smallest projects.
A brief list of materials that may have asbestos contamination include: insulation, ceiling and wall texture, sprayed on fireproofing, acoustical materials, plaster, sheet rock, joint compound, adhesives and floor tiles among other materials. Asbestos has actually been used in over 3,000 products and is a known carcinogen.
With years of experience we have developed systematic procedures that we follow on every job to ensure successful completion on time, without compromising quality. We also provide partial inspections, this saves time and saves you money.
For more information on asbestos, what it is, and what the health hazards associated with it are, go to the Minnesota Department of Health web site using the following link.

If your home was built before 1978, there is a good chance it has lead-based paint. In 1978, the federal government banned consumer uses of lead-containing paint, but some states banned it even earlier. Lead from paint, including lead-contaminated dust, is one of the most common causes of lead poisoning.
Home built between 1960 – 1977
Home built between 1940 – 1959
Home built before 1940
Before you begin, have it tested
If your home or business is in need of an unbiased mold inspection, you’ve come to the right place.
NCIS is an independent investigation, testing and consulting company.
When searching for an inspection company to evaluate your home or business for indoor air quality issues, it is important to seek out an unbiased testing consultant that is not involved in the remediation process. That means no “conflict of interest”, no “biased opinion” as to the testing and results of the lab analysis report. Please let us be of assistance to you. NCIS, the peace of mind company.
The soil. Radon is produced from the natural decay of uranium that is found in nearly all soils. Uranium breaks down to radium. As radium disintegrates it turns into radioactive gas…radon. As a gas, radon moves up through the soil and into the air you breathe.
Radon is the number one cause of lung cancer in non-smokers and the second leading cause of lung cancer (after tobacco) in smokers. Thankfully, this risk should be entirely preventable through awareness and testing.
While radon is present everywhere (Radon Testing Data Map of Minnesota), and there is no known, safe level, your greatest exposure is where it can concentrate-indoors. And where you spend most time-at home. Your home can have radon whether it be old or new, well-sealed or drafty, and with or without a basement.
