Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Pickering
Pickering properties needing confirmation come to us for a Phase 2 ESA that settle the question with actual sampling — boreholes, monitoring wells and lab results.
Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Pickering
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.
We carry out Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Pickering combining borehole drilling, sampling and lab testing to settle what a Phase 1 could only flag as a possibility. Because our Vaughan head office is 27 km or so away, getting to site doesn't add cost or delay.
The Phase 2 ESA page covers the full process and what the report contains.
A Phase 2 usually follows a Phase 1 — see our Phase 1 ESA page for Pickering if that step hasn't happened yet.

Common questions
Phase 2 Environmental Site Assessments in Pickering
How long does a Phase 2 ESA take in Pickering?
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 Pickering?
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?
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.
