Independent Environmental Testing, Industrial Hygiene, Indoor Air Quality, Mold, Asbestos, Lead, Water, and Building Investigation Services
About Angstrom Testing Services LLC
Angstrom Testing Services LLC provides independent environmental testing, inspection, sampling, consulting, and written reporting for residential, commercial, school, institutional, and legal-support projects throughout New York City, Long Island, Westchester, New Jersey, Connecticut, and surrounding areas.
Independent Testing. Defensible Reporting. No Remediation Conflict.
Angstrom Testing Services is led by Paul Scardino, CIH, QEP, LEED AP. The firm provides professional environmental testing and industrial hygiene consulting for clients who need clear documentation, laboratory-supported findings, and practical interpretation of building-related environmental concerns.
Our work includes indoor air quality testing, mold testing and inspection, asbestos testing, lead paint testing and lead risk assessments, formaldehyde and VOC testing, water testing, bacteria testing, Legionella testing, silica dust testing, mycotoxin testing, and HVAC contamination assessment.
Angstrom provides testing and consulting only. We do not perform remediation, abatement, restoration, duct cleaning, cleanup, reconstruction, plumbing repair, or repair contracting. This separation helps avoid conflicts of interest between testing and corrective work.
Professional Credentials and Licenses
Environmental testing projects often require more than sample collection. They require the correct method, the correct sample locations, proper interpretation, and a report that clearly explains what the results do and do not mean.
Certified Industrial Hygienist
CIH-level industrial hygiene experience supports exposure assessment, air quality testing, contaminant evaluation, sampling strategy, and defensible technical reporting.
Qualified Environmental Professional
QEP experience supports environmental consulting, building investigations, due diligence work, source evaluation, and interpretation of environmental testing results.
LEED AP
LEED AP knowledge supports indoor environmental quality, building performance, ventilation, materials, and sustainability-related evaluation of occupied spaces.
Mold Assessment Licensing
Mold assessment credentials support mold inspections, moisture evaluations, sampling plans, remediation protocols, and post-remediation clearance assessments where applicable.
Asbestos Inspection and Testing
Asbestos credentials support inspection, bulk material sampling, renovation-related testing, and documentation of suspect asbestos-containing building materials.
Lead Risk Assessor
Lead risk assessor credentials support XRF lead paint testing, lead dust wipe sampling, lead hazard evaluation, clearance testing, and written lead assessment reports.

Our Testing and Reporting Approach
A useful environmental assessment begins with the question being asked. The sampling plan for a mold complaint is different from the sampling plan for lead dust, asbestos, formaldehyde, bacteria, Legionella, smoke residue, or construction dust.
1. Define the Concern
We review the complaint, property type, visible conditions, odor patterns, water damage, renovation history, HVAC operation, affected rooms, and documentation needs.
2. Select the Method
Sampling methods may include air samples, surface samples, dust wipes, bulk samples, direct-reading instruments, moisture readings, and laboratory analysis.
3. Document the Site
Field observations, photographs, sample locations, chain-of-custody records, field measurements, and relevant building conditions are documented.
4. Interpret the Results
Results are interpreted in context. A good report explains what was found, where it was found, what the limitations are, and what practical next steps may be appropriate.
Environmental testing can document measured conditions and laboratory findings, but it does not diagnose illness or determine medical causation. Health questions should be discussed with a qualified healthcare professional.
Independent Testing Without Cleanup Sales Pressure
Angstrom’s role is to inspect, test, sample, consult, and report. We do not sell mold remediation, asbestos abatement, lead abatement, duct cleaning, restoration, plumbing repair, reconstruction, or other cleanup contracting services.
This matters because the company testing the building should not have a financial interest in finding work for its own cleanup crew. Independent testing helps clients make better decisions about whether corrective work is needed, where it should be focused, and how it should be documented.
