Asbestos Surveys in Austin & Lead / Mold Testing
TSEC is headquartered in Austin. We provide permit-ready asbestos surveys, lead-based paint inspections, and mold assessments across Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, San Marcos, and the rest of Central Texas.
Why Austin projects need a licensed survey first
Austin is being rebuilt faster than almost any city in the country, and a large share of that work touches buildings from the 1950s–1980s: teardown houses, mid-century commercial strips along Lamar and Burnet, and older office and school buildings. The City of Austin requires an Asbestos Compliance Notification Form with commercial demolition permit applications (single-family homes and buildings of four or fewer units are excluded), and Texas requires a licensed asbestos survey before renovation or demolition of any public or commercial building.
Because we're based here, Austin projects get our fastest scheduling. TSEC's survey reports are written in the TDSHS format Austin Development Services expects, with sample locations, lab results, and material quantities your abatement contractor can bid from directly.

Three regulated disciplines, one point of contact, one consistent report format for every property in your Austin portfolio.
Asbestos surveys in Austin
Pre-renovation and pre-demolition surveys, AHERA school inspections, abatement design, and third-party air monitoring — the documentation Austin permit offices and contractors expect.
Asbestos services →Lead-based paint inspections
East Austin, Hyde Park, Travis Heights, and much of the older core were built before 1978, and Austin's housing programs and landlords need certified lead-based paint inspections, risk assessments, and clearance testing before rehab work and at turnover. We perform them with XRF analysis for same-visit results.
Lead services →Mold assessments
Flash floods, aging plumbing in older homes, and high-humidity summers drive Austin's mold complaints. TSEC provides the independent mold assessment, written remediation protocol, and post-remediation clearance — separate from the remediation contractor, as Texas rules require.
Mold services →From first call to final report
A clear, predictable process — so you know what happens next, what it costs, and when you'll have the documentation you need.
