Service was professional, very knowledgeable and efficient. When you need immediate, reliable service because on one side you have tenants and on the other side you have a homeowner, who requires immediate assessment and a pathway to resolution you hire the right people. Hindsight Environmental is a reputable company with excellent management, they are my secure choice for mold inspection reporting.

Can’t thank Hindsight Environmental enough for their promptness and professionalism. We were in a pinch and needed lead and asbestos testing completed so we could move forward with a water repipe, and they really came through for us. Chris answered our call on a Saturday, went out of his way to get the necessary samples taken, and provided us with a ton of helpful information throughout the process. The communication, responsiveness, and level of service were outstanding. Highly recommend Chris and the team at Hindsight Environmental. We truly appreciate them going above and beyond for us.

Response from the owner · a month ago

Thank you, Brendan! We know how important it is to get answers quickly when a project is waiting on testing. We’re glad Chris was able to get out there on a Saturday and help keep everything moving. We really appreciate the kind words and recommendation!
