Vapor Monitoring and Mitigation Services

How Vapor Intrusion Impacts the Community

Vapor intrusion occurs when harmful chemical vapors from contaminated soil or groundwater migrate into the air of nearby buildings. These volatile organic compounds can pose serious health risks over time, including respiratory problems, neurological damage, or even cancer.

In construction zones, these vapors can not only threaten worker safety but also drift into adjacent residential or commercial areas. Without proper detection and control, vapor intrusion can lead to regulatory violations, costly delays, and loss of community trust.

When to Test for Vapor Intrusion

You should consider vapor intrusion testing at any of the following stages:

  • Pre-Construction: Especially on sites with known contamination or historical industrial use.
  • During Excavation or Foundation Work: Disturbed soils can release trapped gases.
  • Post-Construction: To verify safety and long-term air quality inside new structures.
  • Near Sensitive Areas: Schools, hospitals, and residential neighborhoods demand higher scrutiny.

Additionally, testing may be legally required if the site is classified as a brownfield, is near a Superfund site, or is under environmental review. Advanced Construction Technologies also offers brownfield redevelopment services.
