About Environmental Service Professionals, Inc.
Environmental Service Professionals, Inc. ("ESP") is a Nevada corporation headquartered in Southern California. ESP's strategy is to acquire several businesses that have complimentary goals for dealing with environmental issues and resolving environmentally sensitive problems. ESP has already completed two acquisitions and is in various stages of discussion or contact with several other companies that management believes are good operational and economic fits. The current acquisition candidates, if they are acquired, will include some that will be free-standing subsidiaries and others that will be absorbed into existing operations.
ESP's inspection division, since 1996, has offered franchised inspection services for addressing mold and moisture intrusion that can have an acute or chronic negative impact on the indoor air quality of commercial and residential buildings. The division has franchises and branch offices in many regions of North America that are independently owned and operated.
ESP's strategy, in-part, requires the division to replace the franchise structure and establish a new method of service delivery, the Certified Environmental Home Inspector program ("CEHI"). The division is to continue to refine and implement both the annual Mold and Moisture Maintenance ("MMM") and the National Builder's Mold and Moisture ("NBMM") subscription-based maintenance programs including all related product and services. ESP intends to provide Peace of Mind to the consumer for their Family, for their Home and for their Health.
