Emergency Damage & Environmental Assessment

Illicit Drug Assessment & Testing (Meth, Cocaine, Fentanyl & More)

Illicit drug assessment and testing helps determine whether drug residues may be present on surfaces or in building areas after suspected use, manufacturing, trafficking, or unknown prior occupancy. Dynamic Inspections provides illicit drug assessment and testing with clear documentation, practical next steps, and independent verification support for NJ & PA property owners, buyers, landlords, and property managers.

Note: Illicit drug testing is focused on identifying residues and supporting informed decisions. Results, recommendations, and next steps depend on site conditions and the specific substances involved.

Why Hire Us (Not Just “A Test”)

Drug residue issues are often invisible and may be odor-free. A “quick test” without a defensible plan can miss key areas and lead to incomplete cleanup or wasted spend.

  • Smarter sampling strategy based on use patterns, airflow/HVAC pathways, and surface types
  • Protocol writing to define scope, sequencing, and verification criteria before remediation
  • Independent clearance verification after cleanup—objective, third-party documentation
  • Clear reporting that supports decision-making for owners, buyers, and property managers

What We Test For

Our illicit drug assessment and testing can target common and high-risk substances based on the site history and observed conditions:

  • Methamphetamine residue
  • Cocaine residue
  • Fentanyl contamination concerns
  • Heroin and opioid residues
  • Other synthetic or illicit compounds when warranted

Sampling locations are selected intentionally (high-contact surfaces, porous materials, HVAC influence zones, and areas consistent with suspected use/manufacturing patterns).

Assessment → Protocol → Clearance

Dynamic Inspections provides a full workflow—so your decisions are based on data:

  • Initial assessment to identify likely impacted zones
  • Sampling plan and chain-of-custody documentation
  • Remediation protocol tailored to the substance(s) detected
  • Clearance testing & verification to confirm the remediation was effective

This approach helps avoid missed areas, unnecessary demolition, and “cleanup uncertainty.” It’s what makes illicit drug assessment and testing valuable—not just the lab report.

When Illicit Drug Testing Is Recommended

  • Suspected drug use, trafficking, or manufacturing location
  • Rental turnover with unknown occupancy history
  • Pre-purchase / pre-lease due diligence
  • Post-remediation verification (clearance)
  • Odors, residue concerns, or occupant risk reduction planning
