Alaska Testlab, a Veteran and woman-owned business, has been a cornerstone of construction-related services in Alaska since its establishment in 1956. With over 65 years of experience, the company has evolved from a testing laboratory into a comprehensive provider of inspection and specialty services to support commercial construction projects. Originally formed as a testing lab, Alaska Testlab expanded during the 1970s to include special inspection services and has maintained its mission of delivering quality construction materials testing and inspection throughout its history.
Following a successful separation from the DOWL multidisciplinary consulting firm in 2018, Alaska Testlab relaunched as an independent entity, aiming to lead in reliable construction materials testing in the region. The company operates with a strong commitment to integrity and trust, focusing on continuous improvement in service delivery. Their mission is to offer quick and accurate testing backed by qualified personnel who possess extensive technical knowledge.
The company’s capabilities span three primary areas: inspection, laboratory testing, and field testing. Their inspection services align with the International Building Code and project specifications, ensuring quality assurance through special inspections. The laboratory is AASHTO accredited and capable of conducting over 200 different tests on materials such as soils, aggregates, rock, concrete, masonry, and asphalt. Field testing services further ensure compliance with regulations and specifications.
Alaska Testlab prides itself on its team of highly qualified technicians and inspectors, many of whom have over a decade of experience with the firm. Committed to professional development, they ensure all staff members are certified through various accredited organizations, providing clients with reliable and knowledgeable support on their projects. Furthermore, the company is dedicated to continuous growth, creating a positive work environment while striving to exceed client expectations in every project.
