ASAP Environmental Inc describes itself on its website as a Dorchester, MA environmental inspection firm performing lead paint inspections, risk assessments, mold inspections, asbestos inspections, dust testing and clearance inspections, and says it was founded in 1993 by John MacIsaac. Its BBB grade is A+. A 2025 Google customer said ASAP did a lead inspection, showed up on time, and that the report at the end was very detailed, along with some instructions concerning their options. A 2024 customer said that after their original lead inspector canceled last minute, John scheduled an appointment in less than 24 hours, the day before Thanksgiving. A 2023 customer said they called with an emergency over Memorial Day Weekend and ASAP answered the phone and was out the next business day. In a 2018 Angi review, a customer said ASAP performed an initial lead inspection and, after another contractor remediated the issues, a second inspection, then issued a letter of full compliance for the house. A 2023 customer said ASAP inspected their home pre and post de-leading and made errors every time, including an incorrect map of the home, and that the home got a pass even though there were piles of paint chips on the floor. A 2023 customer said Christopher Maracic would not give them a copy of a mold inspection's results, telling them "you're not the one paying me." A 2016 Angi customer said they asked for a lead inspection but received a Renovation, Repair and Painting Assessment, and were then told a letter of compliance required a comprehensive lead inspection.
“There are multiple rooms upstairs that contain a high mold count, according to a mold report by ASAP Environmental Inc.”
ASAP did a lead inspection and did a great job. They were really easy to make a phone appointment with, they showed up on time, and the inspector they sent, Matthew, was really knowledgeable, efficient and a licensed lead inspector. The report I got at the end was very detailed, along with some instructions concerning my options. I would highly recommend ASAP.
Excellent team! I am delighted with the precision and care in keeping us informed and updated. Mike was extremely kind and took care of everything so I could get a new inspection time since we were running late finishing the painting. Matt was kind and helped with guidance information we gained from success. I recommend this competent team from the first contact to the completion of the process.
Exceptional Service and Compassion - Highly Recommend! I found myself in urgent need of a lead inspector after my original one canceled last minute. I called ASAP Environmental and spoke with John, who was not only polite but took the time to ensure I understood the process. To my surprise, he was able to schedule an appointment for me in less than 24 hours, the day before Thanksgiving! Matt Marrochello, the inspector, arrived right on time and did an outstanding job. He was professional, personable, and incredibly thorough in his inspection. Matt explained that the certificates would be delayed due to the holiday, which I understood, but he noticed that this would impact the people moving into the property. Matt went above and beyond to ensure they would have a place to stay on Thanksgiving, showing an incredible level of empathy and care. I’m truly amazed by the kindness, professionalism, and dedication this company has shown. If I could give them a higher rating, I would. Thank you, ASAP Environmental, for going the extra mile!
Christopher Maracic came to inspect my apartment as my building has a mold issue. Throughout the entire inspection I was polite and did not interrupt his work. He appeared to be impatient and was moving a bit too quickly to have done that thorough of a job. He at one point told me I was 'asking for it' (it being the mold) by not running my AC enough (I have never heard such nonsense and I lived in Washington DC for 7 years, which is extremely humid, and never had a mold problem). When the inspection was complete, I asked if I could have a copy of the results and he says "No." and does not elaborate. When I asked why, he said "you're not the one paying me." He then began to walk out of my home while I was mid sentence, and with his back turned to me attempts to shut the door in my face. While I may not have been "the one paying him," I'm still a customer and you are in my HOME. His behavior was absolutely reprehensible.
Spoke with John Macisaac over the phone regarding past lead inspection finding on a home we are purchasing. He was fantastic to talk with; walked me through the whole process and what to expect if there are findings. There was no hesitation with working to accommodate short notice inspection time on our schedule. I would highly recommend.
