First impressions are everything. They showed up as scheduled, tested/added chemicals as needed, brushed sides, netted any debris on the top, cleaned both baskets and checked pressure. Didn’t send pictures this first time since I was there. All in all, a great first experience.

The total cost was reasonable and they seemed really honest. Does not seem like they were trying to make more money off of us. I like the idea of outsourcing the testing instead of doing it in-house. It may seem a little more work on our end... but, well worth it, knowing we were not going to be...

Acoustic ceiling tiles

Sprayed acoustic ceilings
Stove insulation
Patching compounds
Textured paints

No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos. All residential building materials used since the mid-1980s stopped including asbestos, so new popcorn ceilings have no risk of asbestos. You can still create a textured drywall ceiling with a popcorn texture if you like, but new techniques have no risk of adding asbestos.

Whether or not to buy a home containing asbestos is ultimately a decision for the homebuyer, and there are several things to consider. When in good condition and contained, asbestos is unlikely to present a health risk—it’s when those tiny fibers are loose and airborne that they become a problem. Consider any renovations you plan on doing to the home that could disturb existing asbestos and the cost of removal. If an inspection finds asbestos in a home on the market, you could negotiate with the seller for a lower price, though this isn’t a sure thing.
