Soil Sampling and Collection Pittsburgh

Environmental samples are obtained directly from a site in Pittsburgh for laboratory testing. Samples will be accompanied to the laboratory by a chain-of-custody form along with location and depths of where the samples were taken.

If a contaminated site in Pittsburgh is encountered or suspected, assessment activities are typically undertaken to determine the severity of the contamination. Quite often environmental drilling companies are employed to drill small boreholes into the ground for the purposes of collecting soil samples at pre-determined depths. In some cases, construction equipment can be utilized for the same if the contaminated area is shallow. The nature of the contamination will determine what a soil sample will be analyzed for at an accredited soil testing laboratory in Ontario. If assessment activities identify a contaminated zone remediation (or clean-up) options will be presented.

Soil Sampling and Testing in Pittsburgh Ontario

During the course of any remediation project, confirmatory or verification sampling is required. It is primarily these sample results that will indicate whether a site has been cleaned up to a satisfactory level or if more "clean-up" is required.

It is very important to wear disposable protective gloves during any soil sampling activity. Gloves are utilized for the protection of the worker but also to protect the assessment from cross contamination. A new pair of disposable gloves should be used for every sample collected and all samples should be placed in laboratory supplied labelled bottles only.

Client Testimonials

When our basement flooded we were fortunate that our insurance company used SOS. We found them to be professional, prompt extremely efficient polite and clean. Because of their work we asked if they would do our rebuild and remodelling of the now clean fresh smelling basement. Thankfully they agreed and their work was exemplary. They listened to our wants and gave us alternative ideas and carried out the work not just to our satisfaction but also to their own. There were times when they saw a problem that we didn’t and put it right. There were no shortcuts and we heard their work ethic of “if I wouldn’t be happy with it why should someone else”several times. We can not fault anything about this company or their workers, they were always on time, polite, clean and informative. If there was a problem or delay we were told before each incident, it was explained and new work date given. In short we can not find any fault no matter how minor with SOS. Not only would we recommend them if asked we have been extolling their work to friends, family and acquaintances.

Cam and his crew were exceptionally easy to work with. Our garage was in bad shape and we had planned on utilizing SOS and the team for months. They came and demolished our garage in such a professional manner. Cam came and worked hard all day because he didn't want to let any of his clients down. Even while the night prior there was a huge windstorm and he had to delegate all the various jobs that need prioritizing. The clean up was done effectively and the team works fast and they are a lot of fun as well. Last minute Ryan and I decided a deck would be a great addition. I literally just asked Cam and he said he would come back the following week and build us a beautiful deck where our old leaky garage once stood. The cost of his work is very reasonable. I cannot thank him and his team for all the hard work they did for us!! Lots of appreciation Leiann and Ryan

When we found a large area mold in our attic and basement, we reached to SOS. During the work, they had found more hidden mold and means more work than expected. They returned our home next day and got this resolved properly and thoroughly. We are so satisfied and feel grateful to have SOS team to deal with it. We will strongly recommend SOS if someone encounter the similar situation and need professional help.
