Other Services

Building Biology offers a comprehensive suite of services designed to enhance the health, safety, and sustainability of living environments. Beyond assessing structural materials and EMFs, Building Biologists specialise in water and indoor air quality, lead content testing, and consultations on personal care and cleaning products, providing a holistic approach to wellbeing.

Water Quality Assessments

Clean water is fundamental to health, yet contaminants such as heavy metals, pesticides, and microorganisms are increasingly common. Building Biologists conduct detailed water quality assessments to identify pollutants in household water supplies. These assessments help homeowners implement effective filtration systems, ensuring safe drinking, cooking, and bathing water.

Indoor Air Quality Testing

Indoor air often harbours allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), mould spores, traffic-related air pollutants (TRAPs) and other contaminants that affect respiratory health and overall wellbeing. Indoor air assessments identify sources of contamination and provide tailored recommendations to improve ventilation, reduce humidity, and minimise exposure to harmful substances.

Lead Content Testing

Lead contamination remains a significant health risk, particularly for children. Using lead test kits and laboratory analysis from The LEAD Group, Building Biologists can test for lead in various materials, including soil, paint, backyard hen eggs, water and foods.

These tests enable homeowners to address and remediate lead sources, preventing exposure and long-term health consequences.

Personal Care and Cleaning Product Consultation

Everyday products, from shampoos to surface cleaners, can introduce harmful chemicals into homes. Many contain endocrine-disrupting compounds, allergens, or VOCs that impact health and indoor air quality. Building Biologists help clients transition to safer alternatives by evaluating product ingredients and recommending eco-friendly, non-toxic options.

Why These Services Matter

Environmental toxins and poor indoor air quality can subtly and significantly impact health, from exacerbating allergies to contributing to chronic illnesses. Building Biology services empower individuals to identify and address these risks, creating safer, healthier homes.

By integrating these assessments into their expertise, Building Biologists provide a complete picture of environmental health, helping families live in harmony with their homes and surroundings.

Other services are billed at $110 / hour. 

Lead testing costs $88 per test, which includes laboratory testing, interpretation of results and recommendations.
