How long does a Phase 2 ESA take in Orillia?

Three to six weeks is typical, depending on site access for drilling and how long lab results take.

How much does a Phase 2 ESA cost in Orillia?

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?
