CSA Z769 typically serves real estate transactions and due diligence; O. Reg. 153/04 applies where the outcome feeds a Record of Site Condition or a municipal application.

For properties in Cambridge, we conduct intrusive Phase 2 assessments using intrusive drilling, sampling and lab analysis to confirm what a Phase 1 review has flagged. Site attendance is routine rather than a special trip, with our Vaughan head office about 87 km from Cambridge.

Full detail on the process and what's in the report is on the Phase 2 ESA page.

A Phase 2 usually follows a Phase 1 — see our Phase 1 ESA page for Cambridge if that step hasn't happened yet.

Common questions

Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Cambridge

How long does a Phase 2 ESA take in Cambridge?

Typically three to six weeks from engagement, depending on drilling access, lab turnaround and the number of sample locations.

How much does a Phase 2 ESA cost in Cambridge?

Cost is driven by the number of sample locations, lab work required, and site access, priced to a defined scope before work begins.

Which standard applies?

CSA Z769 typically serves real estate transactions and due diligence; O. Reg. 153/04 applies where the outcome feeds a Record of Site Condition or a municipal application.

Does a Phase 2 always follow a Phase 1?

Usually, yes — a Phase 2 exists to confirm what a Phase 1 flags, but it can stand alone if a specific concern, like a known spill, is already documented.
