FAQs about dry cleaning sites

I am interested in buying an former dry cleaning site. Do I need to test for contamination?

As with any real estate purchase, the term “caveat emptor” comes to mind. That is, “buyer beware.” It is important that any prospective buyer complete their due diligence prior to signing on the dotted line. The liability associated with a contaminated dry cleaner can easily exceed the worth of the property and the business. Any purchase of a former dry cleaning site should be accompanied by an environmental assessment report that has been thoroughly evaluated by a licensed environmental professional.

Dry cleaner sites are often associated with environmental impacts from chlorinated solvents such as perchloroethylene (PCE). While there may be signs on the surface of spills, the only way to determine conclusively if there is contamination on site is by conducting a subsurface investigation of the on-site soil and groundwater.

If you suspect a chemical spill, the first order of business is to first evacuate the area. The spill area should then be contained and the spill reported to the appropriate emergency response office. The area should be secured until the emergency response personnel arrive and can conduct a proper cleanup.
