Top Environmental Consulting Companies

Environmental consulting firms assess and manage the environmental risk tied to land, buildings and operations. Their work includes Phase 1 and Phase 2 environmental site assessments for property deals, hazardous materials surveys before renovation or demolition, air, water and stormwater permits, compliance audits, wetland studies and remediation planning. Lenders, buyers, developers, manufacturers and municipalities hire them when a transaction needs due diligence, a project needs a permit, or a regulator issues a notice.

Listed consultants range from single-discipline specialists to engineering firms. Compare them on the assessment or permit you need, the credentials of the person signing the report, and laboratory accreditation.

Hiring Environmental Consulting companies

What the work covers, how to judge a partner and what drives the price.

What environmental consultants deliver

Transaction work centers on the Phase 1 environmental site assessment, which reviews historical records, regulatory databases and a site walk to flag recognized environmental conditions under the ASTM E1527 standard. When it finds one, a Phase 2 follows with soil, groundwater or vapor sampling, and possibly a remediation plan and cost estimate.

Building work covers asbestos, lead paint, mold and PCB surveys before renovation or demolition, abatement specifications and air clearance testing. Operating work covers air emissions permits, stormwater pollution prevention plans, spill prevention plans, waste characterization, environmental management systems aligned with ISO 14001, and greenhouse gas inventories.

Land and development projects add environmental impact assessments, natural heritage and species surveys, wetland delineation and agency consultation. Engagements are usually a fixed-scope report, a multi-phase project, or a compliance retainer with scheduled inspections and reporting.

Environmental Consulting FAQs

Short answers to what buyers ask before hiring a Environmental Consulting company.

Question not covered? Ask our team

An environmental consulting firm identifies and manages environmental risk for property owners and operators. It performs Phase 1 and II site assessments, hazardous materials surveys, permitting, compliance audits, ecological studies and remediation planning, and it prepares the reports that lenders, buyers and regulators rely on.

Standard reports are fixed-fee, while sampling and remediation are billed on time and materials plus laboratory costs. Site size, history, sample count, turnaround and regulatory reporting set the price. Most firms in this listing set no minimum or a minimum project of $1,000 to $5,000, with some starting at $100,000 or $250,000 for remediation programs.

A Phase 1 is typically ordered before buying, refinancing or developing commercial property, because lenders require it and it supports the innocent landowner defense under federal law. It is also used before leasing industrial space. If the report flags a recognized environmental condition, a Phase 2 with sampling usually follows.

Environmental consulting deals with what a property or operation releases into land, air and water and how it is permitted. Health and safety consulting protects workers, covering hazard assessments, OSHA compliance, training and exposure monitoring. Hazmat surveys and industrial hygiene sit between the two, and many firms offer both.

Listed firms most often serve manufacturing, energy and natural resources, government, financial services, real estate and business services clients. Lenders and real estate buyers order transaction assessments, manufacturers and energy companies need permits and audits, and public agencies commission impact studies.

Listed environmental consulting firms are spread across Atlanta, Calgary, Chicago, Clearwater and Los Angeles. Site work requires field staff to visit the property, and consultants need to know the reviewing agency, so confirm a firm has worked in the state or province where your site sits.
