Very professional, responded to my requests rapidly, very thorough detailed report. Got the information that I needed.
I write to sing the praises of NoVA Environmental Solutions. I had the good fortune to consult with Paul Burger and found him to be knowledgeable and VERY patient in explaining things and answering my endless questions. He cared more about sharing knowledge than making a sale - you do not often find business that are ethical and caring in this day and age. And no, I dont know anyone personally at this company. This is an unsolicited rave review!!!!
Outstanding service! I am the property Manager for a 102 unit building and Ive been a client for 3 years. Nova, headed by Paul Burger has been lead and point for 2 of my major floods requiring testing and analysis, and invaluable. Paul is an highly professional, trusted Industrial Hygienist.
As a Property Manger, I have used NoVA Environmental for testing of asbestos, mold and microbial growth and have been very satisfied with their fast response, testing and reports provided. I would highly recommend their services.
Paul and his team are fabulous, top-notch experts. Paul very generously spoke with me prior to the inspection to answer all of my questions and concerns. From his answers, I could tell his expertise was a cut above the other inpectors I spoke with, and that he really cared about doing a great job and protecting his customers health. He wasnt salesy, quite the opposite, he genuinely wanted to make sure I had the info I needed to portect my health. On inspection day, they were here for hours, and tested surface samples, air spore levels, moisture inside walls, VOCs, humidity, and compared levels to outdoor spore counts so he could isolate indoor vs. outdoor exposure. He took the samples to the lab himself, the results came back fast, and he wrote an extremely helpful and detailed report, including a suggested remediation plan that the remediation company we hired utilized. Then, after remediation, his team tested again to make sure that all the mold was removed. I appreciated having our inspection done by a different company than the remediation company, to remove any concern for conflict of interest. Paul also referred us to a fantastic mold remediation company, and to other experts we needed to resolve our situation. If you are in their geographic area of service, I would 100% recommend you choose them.
I contacted NoVA Environmental Solutions because I needed to have an old abandoned farm house near New Market tested for asbestos before the county would issue a demolition permit. Paul spoke with me on the phone to explain how the process worked, and was able to schedule an appointment at the property the following week. He arrived on time to the appointment, and answered the questions I had during and after his inspection and taking of samples to be tested. The lab results were back within 3 business days, and NES accompanying, detailed report met the county requirements for the permit. NES was professional and courteous from start to finish, and the fees were quite reasonable. One other factor for me in choosing them was that NES does not do asbestos abatement, or post-abatement testing; thus, even if the samples had tested positive for asbestos, NES stood no possibility of gaining further work from me. I would definitely recommend this company without hesitation to anyone seeking an honest and professional asbestos testing service.
My name is Will Stoelting and I work for RestorTech. We are a firm that handles Water, Fire and Mold claims for insurance companies. We also handle non-insurance projects. I oversee the mold remediation division here at RestorTech. In my 21 year of dealing with water and mold projects I have often needed the services of a trusted Industrial Hygienist firm. Paul and his staff at NoVa Environmental solutions is on a very short list of companies we prefer to work alongside. Their knowledge base is second to none. Paul is always willing to speak about different projects, even ones he is not involved in. When we get a call from a potential client, one of the first questions we ask is Is there an Industrial Hygienist involved? We are always happy to hear when NoVa Environmental Solutions is involved. From start to finish on a mold remediation project NoVa Environmental Sol. keeps all parties informed and is easily reached when needed. I highly recommend NoVa Environmental Solutions when a certified Industrial Hygienist ins need on a mold remediation project.
I would highly recommend NoVA Environmental Solutions. I had a mold problem from a neighbors upstairs leaky pipe. I had no idea of the extent of the problem and how severely my home and health had been affected. Paul was very professional but also very warm and caring. He took his time and answered all my questions and concerns. I felt like someone had my best interest and I was in very competent hands. When he came back to re-test where everything on the surf looked fine it was due to his thoroughness that problems were uncovered and my home is now safe to return to. I am grateful to Paul for helping to return my home to a safe haven.
Pleasant to work with, thorough, helpful, go the extra mile
As a property manager, I am frequently in need of professionals like Paul and the NES team, who always help however possible to sort out tricky matters such as mold/air quality, water quality and more. If you ever are in need, I highly recommend.
Shortly after I purchased a new home Paul came out to check for mold in my workshop/shed. He was timely and professional and left me feeling very confident in the recommendations that he made.
NoVA Environmental Solutions was absolutely fabulous. We were selling our home and needed a quick turnaround. NoVa ES was fast, professional, and incredibly easy to work with. I would recommend without reservation.
NoVA Environmental Solutions was a pleasure to work with - very professional and they were able to provide an inspection appointment in a matter of days. Most importantly, NoVA issued a report that was very comprehensive AND understandable, all within days of the inspection. I had a very clear picture of how the inspection and next actions would be handled given the discussion and email communication leading up to the site visit. I would highly recommend NoVA Environmental Solutions.
Nova was very prompt, thorough, and very professional. Not to mention a pleasure to work with!
