Chemicals & Substances

Specialized detection of hazardous chemicals, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and controlled substances.

Service Overview

Chemical contamination in built environments can arise from diverse sources, including illicit drug production, industrial spills, or building material off-gassing. These hazards often remain invisible while posing severe respiratory and neurological risks to occupants.

Charles Taylor Environmental employs advanced surface sampling and air monitoring techniques to identify specific contaminants. Whether assessing a property for Methamphetamine/Fentanyl residue or investigating sick building syndrome caused by Formaldehyde, our protocols ensure safety and regulatory compliance.

Key Capabilities

Illicit Drugs

Testing for surface residues of Methamphetamine, Fentanyl, and high-potency THC in affected properties.

VOCs & Formaldehyde

Identification of Volatile Organic Compounds off-gassing from new materials or industrial sources.

Trauma & Crime Scene

Evaluation of biological hazards, tear gas residues, and other contaminants following critical incidents.

Clearance Reporting

Post-remediation verification to certify that chemical levels have been reduced to safe standards.

Why It Matters

  • Liability: Property owners are liable for disclosing known contamination like Methamphetamine.

  • Occupant Safety: Residues can be absorbed through skin or inhaled, causing long-term health issues.

  • Property Value: Certified clean-up and clearance restores asset value after contamination events.

Did You Know?

Residues from methamphetamine production or heavy use can permeate drywall, carpets, and HVAC ducts, remaining hazardous for years if not properly identified and remediated.
