Why Choose RTK? Unbiased and Accurate Assessments
RTK Environmental specializes exclusively in testing and consulting, not remediation, so you can trust our assessments to be impartial and precise. If we detect a hazard, we’ll provide a remediation plan and let you hire a separate firm for cleanup. After remediation, we’ll return to verify the job was completed correctly and offer advice on preventing future issues. This unbiased approach can save you from unnecessary repairs and ensure you get the best possible service.

Fairfield County Mold Testing Services
Why should you schedule a mold inspection? Mold spores, when inhaled, can cause serious health issues, including asthma, chronic allergies, headaches, fatigue, skin rashes, throat and eye irritation, wheezing, and respiratory problems. When disturbed, mold releases spores into the air, causing cross-contamination and spreading new colonies.
Mold can be caused by water or moisture-related issues, such as ice dams, roof leaks, basement flooding, burst pipes, poor drainage, or high humidity. Mold often grows behind walls and ceilings, so unless you test for it, you might not even know it exists.
Toxic mold is especially dangerous, as its spores contain mycotoxins, which can have severe health effects. To protect your family and property, hire a professional to locate and identify any mold present.
Fairfield, CT Certified Lead Inspection
If you’re renovating, remodeling, or purchasing a home built before 1978, book a lead inspection. Lead poisoning is a preventable childhood disease, and children can ingest lead from paint chips, tap water, dust, and soil.
Over 80% of homes in Fairfield County were built before 1978, meaning many older homes may still contain lead paint. Lead dust can accumulate over time or be disturbed during renovations. Before exposing your family to lead, find out if a hazard exists.
The U.S. EPA warns that home test kits are often inaccurate, so it’s crucial to hire a professional. Ensure contractors or workers are certified in lead-safe practices to protect your family’s health.
Fairfield County, CT Asbestos Inspection & Testing
Asbestos exposure can lead to serious health risks, including lung cancer. Contact RTK before renovating any property built before 1980. Our licensed and certified inspectors are experts in locating asbestos and monitoring its removal. We follow all state and federal regulations, including the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), to ensure your safety.
Our services include:
- Comprehensive site surveys to identify asbestos-containing materials.
- Bulk, air, and soil sampling.
- Detailed reports identifying asbestos locations, quantities, and conditions.
- Asbestos prioritization plans and abatement recommendations.
- Asbestos clearance testing to verify complete removal.
Indoor Air Quality Testing in Connecticut
Indoor air quality is often compromised by common household and office products. The U.S. EPA reports that indoor pollutant levels can be 25 to 100 times higher than outdoor levels. What’s in the air you breathe every day?
RTK Environmental can test for dangerous levels of VOCs, mold, radon, carbon monoxide, off-gassing from carpets or furniture, and particles from furnaces and wood-burning stoves. We also test for asthma triggers like dust mites, insect cells, and other contributors to Sick Building Syndrome.
Our customized investigations will help determine the root cause of your health concerns or air quality issues. We provide a detailed report with recommendations to resolve the problem. After remediation is complete, we’ll verify the situation is fully addressed. Because we only focus on environmental testing and consulting—never remediation—you can trust that our assessments are accurate and unbiased.
