Surveys and inspections from a dedicated air quality consultant

At Marlowe Environmental Services, we specialise in air quality consultancy, inspections, and compliance services. Our expert-led team works closely with clients from various sectors to deliver tailored solutions for their air quality needs. Our surveys help businesses and organisations across the UK maintain healthy, safe air standards in commercial and industrial environments.

Poor air quality can impact employee wellbeing, regulatory compliance, and overall operational performance. Our tailored inspections are designed to detect and resolve air quality risks before they become costly or hazardous. The team uses advanced equipment and technical proficiency to detect harmful air pollutants and ensure compliance with relevant regulations.

With proven experience across multiple sectors, our consultants deliver actionable insights to improve indoor and outdoor air quality. Air quality inspectors enforce compliance with standards such as the Clean Air Act and the UK’s Air Quality Standards Regulations, and use specialised equipment to measure and analyse air pollutants. The result? Protecting people, optimising efficiency, and supporting sustainability.

Our air survey & inspection services

We offer a full suite of air quality surveys and assessment services, including air quality assessments, odour assessments, and dust assessments, all essential for planning applications and development projects. Our air quality consultants provide expert support for local authorities and developers by establishing monitoring networks, supporting planning applications, and ensuring compliance with air quality management strategies.

Air quality assessments are required for compliance with planning requirements, environmental permits, and local and national air quality regulations, particularly for industrial developments and projects located in Air Quality Management Areas (AQMAs). These assessments can include dispersion modelling to demonstrate how pollutants will disperse in the atmosphere and support environmental impact assessments.

Collaboration with local authorities is often necessary to address air quality-related planning issues, and the results of these assessments can directly influence the approval process for development projects. Our consultants work with you to deliver effective, evidence-led solutions.

Radon Inspections

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas and one of several hazardous substances that can impact indoor air quality. Our inspections test for radon levels and support compliance with health and safety regulations, ensuring your building remains a safe environment.

Mould Inspections

Mould can compromise air quality and trigger respiratory issues, especially in poorly ventilated areas. We identify the source of mould, assess the extent of contamination, and advise on effective remediation and prevention.

Learn more about LEV Inspections

LEV systems are critical for managing airborne contaminants in industrial and commercial settings, especially those generated by industrial processes such as manufacturing, construction, and waste management. We inspect and assess system performance to help you comply with COSHH regulations and ensure optimal protection for your workforce.

LEV inspections help control emissions and support dust management strategies in compliance with environmental regulations. Regular monitoring is essential to protect employee health and maintain a safe working environment in industrial sites. Our inspectors conduct field visits to check for compliance with environmental laws and inspect emissions.

Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Inspections

Ensure the air inside your premises is as safe and clean as possible by assessing indoor air quality through comprehensive inspections. Using advanced air monitoring equipment, we monitor various pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide, particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10), and humidity levels to ensure compliance with workplace safety standards.

Indoor air quality (IAQ) inspections can investigate common internal pollutants such as VOCs, formaldehyde, moulds and bacteria, dust, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. Poor IAQ can lead to health problems like headaches, fatigue, and respiratory issues, often referred to as ‘sick building syndrome’, which can impact employee health and well-being. Real-time data from our monitoring systems provides crucial insights into indoor air quality, supporting regular monitoring for compliance and health protection.

Why regular air surveys and inspections are essential

Routine air quality inspections are key to maintaining a healthy, productive environment for staff and visitors.

  • Prevent workplace health issues such as dry eyes, fatigue, or throat irritation. Regular monitoring using advanced technologies, such as IoT sensor systems and artificial intelligence, is transforming air quality management by enabling ongoing, systematic assessment and rapid response to issues.
  • The growth in the use of low-cost, scalable sensors can fill spatial and temporal gaps left by traditional monitoring networks, ensuring more comprehensive coverage.
  • Community-driven monitoring empowers communities to contribute to air quality data and supports increased awareness of air pollution as a global health risk.
  • Detect and resolve hidden sources of contamination before they escalate
  • Ensure compliance with UK regulations for air hygiene and safety. Air quality monitoring provides crucial data for making informed decisions, supports planning applications and environmental impact assessments, and helps local authorities meet statutory compliance requirements.
  • Improve energy efficiency and reduce associated operating costs
  • Support sustainability and corporate responsibility goals. Air quality monitoring services contribute to clean air, healthier communities, and the development of mitigation strategies to limit environmental impacts.
