In 2004 the company expanded once again with the purchase of Wellington Environmental Solutions of Davenport, IA spreading into Illinois.

This final merger has provided Advanced Environmental the ability to perform licensed work within the states of Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri and Wisconsin.
