About Latitudes Environmental

Our Journey

In the beginning, most of our work involved Health, Safety and Environmental services for the oil and gas industry. This was an area of recent experience, as David Lewis had been employed in offshore exploration and production. Market changes and new relationships soon pushed us into other industries, such as mining, wastewater treatment, manufacturing, and industrial hygiene. One of our key accomplishments was building a management system around selling and performing industrial and municipal wastewater permits nationwide. We also built a mold assessment practice in 2018, following Hurricane Harvey, and have since performed over 600 mold assessments on homes and commercial buildings.

Now in our 8th year, we have leveled out as a boutique consultancy, offering primarily permitting, compliance, and project management services to a portfolio of industrial and manufacturing customers. Merger and acquisition, land development, and project management services have been particular areas of interest. These are areas where we can bring our service lines together in one place, in order to drive project success. We are now a Class A General Contractor in Virginia, and are working to gain interest from industrial and manufacturing players, as well as investors.

We are in this for the ‘long haul’ and will strive to attract new customers, and develop new service lines. We will continue to maintain business offices in Houston, Texas and Richmond, Virginia, and will consider additional office locations as business demands.

“Simply put, no one or no company can ‘push’ paperwork as efficiently and effectively as we do. We do not ‘camp out’ on projects- we move them along as quickly as possible because this is in the best financial interest of your project. When you see that we are looking after your ‘money’, then you will continue to use us and tell your friends.” — David Lewis, President
