We bought an old house, and expected to have some lead paint, so we ordered an inspection before signing the P&S.
Inspector Chris M was very flexible on timing, and was able to schedule us during the same time as our home inspection, even with very little notice. He did a great job of working his way through the house, and was excellent at breaking down the findings to me afterwards. He was clearly knowledgeable, and provided some insight into possible realistic solutions to consider for each area.

The inspection was very thorough and we received the report shortly after. I guess the lead inspection is a pretty standard procedure, but the owner took the time to walk through most of the house with us to explain how to read the report and described verbally the areas of concern.

Right from the beginning ASAP was incredibly responsive. They picked up the phone right away, were extremely professional and nice, and when I asked for the next availability (I wanted to get this done fast) they said they could be there the following week--I called on a Friday and we made a plan for Tuesday! I was very impressed by this. They showed up on time, explained everything very clearly, and made me feel extremely comfortable. I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat. Plus, it was daunting to me to think of having lead paint. I'm trying to rent out my condo and there are families interested. I've always heard from everyone "oh it's so expensive to take care of lead paint, even to get an inspection!" However, ASAP was only $375 and I thought that was unbeatable and totally worth it. 
They followed up quickly with a full written report and a receipt of my payment. From beginning to end, Excellent Service!

Everything went according to plan. The initial inspection was done and the report e-mailed to me the very next day. ASAP worked with the contractor and provided a very prompt response when it came to re-inspecting the premises.

We recently purchased a new home. There was a lot of chipping paint and, especially with a 21-month old, whether we should be concerned about lead paint.
When I called ASAP Environment, they provided me a clear description of what would be involved in the inspection process. They answered all my questions sufficiently and even answered some questions I didn't directly ask. What impressed me the most was the fact that they usually can schedule inspections within 1-2 days, whereas I wasn't expecting the wait time to be 1-2 weeks. 
For a 2-story, Colonial, 1500 sq ft home (and the 0.12 acre property), I was told the inspection would take 2.5 hours and run about $425. The inspection actually went faster than expected (it only took about 2.25 hours) and they adjusted the price of the inspection accordingly to $375, which I really appreciated. 
On the day of the inspection, Chris arrived on time and - after going over a few general notes - started the inspection.
He told me that I should wait until the end of the inspection to ask questions, so that he could focus on the work and get things done efficiently. I was concerned that meant Chris wouldn't give me any feedback during the inspection - but that wasn't the case.
As he proceeded through the property, he gave me a quick summary of his findings (e.g., I detected lead in the window sill and frame, but in the paint on the porch floor.) He also answered questions as he worked (though I did ask him to tell me if I was asking too many during the process), so I felt like I knew the areas of the concern as he moved from room to room.
In terms of the inspection, he was very thorough. He also took some additional readings (that weren't part of the standard form requirement) to make the lead abatement work go more efficiently.There were two cases where he put in his report notes indicating that, the area of the wall that was mouthable or prone to damage did not have any detectible lead and therefore may not need any work to keep it up to code.
After he completed the inspection, he went over the draft report with me and answered the initial questions I had. In greater detail than my initial phone consultation, he explained the process to have the house reinspected after any lead abatement work was done. He also provided me with a list of contractors that their customers had had success with, which (in addition to Angie's list) was another resource we used while looking for someone to do the work.
The inspection was completed on Friday afternoon and - before the end of the day - Chris had sent me the full report.
Chris also answered a few additional questions I emailed him about after going over the report - he didn't just give me the report and consider his job done.

ASAP Environmental was knowledgable and punctual. They explained everything in detail regarding the services which needed to be performed. Best of all, they were not pushy. I would highly recommend them.

ASAP was very good, he inspected the house for lead paint, educated me about the laws in MA. We walked through every room and pointed to what was a lead, and not a lead problem. I have received all the reports I need to take care of the problem,, and what to do, if I want to hire someone or to do it myself. It was worth every penny.

When I called ASAP to schedule a lead inspection, I had already arranged from a Home Inspection and was hoping to schedule it for the same time.  The initial phone conversation resulted in a rough estimate, and they were very accomodating in working with my schedule.
We arranged to meet at 9:30 am.  When I arrived at the house at 9:30, the inspector was already there, and stated that he had already finished his inspection of the outside of the house!  He took some time to explain exactly what he was looking for, as well as the method that he used.  He provided a packet of information stating Massachusetts Lead Laws, as well as information on options for deleading, if it is needed.
We didn't follow him around to every room, but from when we were with him, he seemed to be doing a very thorough job, which also was followed up by a report detailing the results of every surface on which the test was performed.  An added bonus was that the total cost was slightly under the original estimate!  I would definitely recommend.

One of the things that impressed me was their constant goal of expanding their knowledge in the areas of their expertize, including the legal ramifications as it affects landlords. Whether your motivation is to protect the environment or your investment, I highly recommend ASAP Environmental. NOTE: At this time I do not have access to my records. I do not recall the last time I used ASAP Environmental, nor the price for the last project I used them for.

I had them inspect two rental properties this month and was very happy with there service.
