Common questions

Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Kitchener

How long does a Phase 2 ESA take in Kitchener?

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 Kitchener?

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?

For transactions and due diligence, CSA Z769 is the usual standard; O. Reg. 153/04 governs work feeding into an RSC filing or a permit application.

Does a Phase 2 always follow a Phase 1?

In most cases yes, since a Phase 2 confirms a Phase 1's findings — though a known issue, such as a documented spill, can justify going straight to Phase 2.
