When an individual suspects a building related cause for an illness, they contact us. We confirm the presence of common contaminants, locate the source and make recommendations for improvements.
Indoor environmental quality (IEQ) refers to the quality of a building’s environment in relation to the health and wellbeing of those who occupy space within it. Clients are often concerned that they have symptoms or health conditions from exposures to contaminants in the buildings where they live or work. One reason for this concern is that their symptoms often get better when they are not in the building.
Indoor environments are highly complex and building occupants may be exposed to a variety of contaminants (in the form of gases and particles) from office machines, cleaning products, construction activities, carpets and furnishings, perfumes, cigarette smoke, water-damaged building materials, microbial growth (fungal, mold, and bacterial), insects, and outdoor pollutants. Other factors such as indoor temperatures, relative humidity, and ventilation levels can also affect how individuals respond to the indoor environment.
Understanding the sources of indoor environmental contaminants and controlling them can often help prevent or resolve building-related symptoms.
Your Inspector, Case Woodward
Hi, I’m Case Woodward. Born and raised in Dallas, my interest in environmental sciences began early, influenced by my mom’s work at the local EPA office. I remember her bringing a plastic farm model and red Kool-Aid for Show-N-Tell to teach about runoff and pollution – a powerful early lesson. With the last name Woodward, meaning “Protector or Guardian of the Woods”, it feels like a natural calling.
I initially dreamed of being a firefighter, but a disability prevented military and fire service. Overcoming challenges and gaining diverse experiences in construction, building sciences, and a career in telecommunications, management, and logistics shaped my journey. In 2012, with the guidance of a mentor in environmental testing, I returned to my roots, serving our community through environmental testing and inspections.
Today, I specialize in Building Sciences through Indoor Air Quality, Lead Inspections, Mold Inspection & Mold Testing and EMF Testing. My goal is to encourage well-being by applying the principles of industrial hygiene to create healthier, happier spaces. I am committed to providing comprehensive and accurate analysis for your peace of mind.
I look forward to meeting you,
Case Woodward
