Asbestos air and project monitoring for NYC abatement.
When abatement is under way, the owner needs an independent third party watching the work and the air. We are there every day it runs, from containment setup through final clearance, and the documentation still makes sense to someone reading it a year later.
Monitoring, sampling and clearance
- Third-party project monitoring for abatement work
- Daily area, background, and clearance air sampling
- PCM and TEM analysis through accredited laboratories
- Containment inspection, negative pressure verification, and visual clearance
- Full project documentation package from setup through final clearance
- Off-hours and weekend coverage for occupied and operating buildings
Typically used by
Owners, construction managers, and general contractors running abatement inside occupied buildings, schools, and institutional properties.
Monitoring questions, answered.
When does a NYC job need air monitoring?
When work will disturb more than 25 linear feet or more than 10 square feet of asbestos-containing material, it becomes an asbestos project. An ACP-7 notification is filed with DEP, and abatement proceeds with independent air monitoring. The survey that comes first is covered on our ACP-5 page.
Why does the monitor need to be independent?
The project monitor works for the owner, not the abatement contractor. That independence is what makes the air results and the final clearance worth relying on.
What’s the difference between PCM and TEM?
PCM counts airborne fibers and is the standard method for routine sampling during the job. TEM identifies asbestos fibers specifically. We run whichever the project and its requirements call for, through accredited laboratories.
Can you cover nights and weekends?
Yes. Off-hours, weekend and occupied-space work is arranged on our end, not added to your list.

Still need the survey?
Every project starts with an asbestos determination. See ACP-5 asbestos investigation.
