Aurelio was very knowledgeable about the plumbing issue I introduced to him and knew exactly how to correct it. He ran some tests, got the part and the issue was resolved in a timely manor. I definitely will be recommending North Bound Plumbing to anyone looking for plumbing services.

They were very accurate in sampling and testing parts of the house to test for asbestos. Nice people and they seem trustworthy. The only reason I gave them a 4 instead of a 5 is that there was miscommunication between the receptionist who took the initial scope of work and what was actually...

There was no charge.? That was under the warranty.? They're awesome.? They did charge me for a new filter because it needed one.? I thought I'd go ahead and have them replace it because they were here. I was kind-of hoping that it would be included, but it wasn't. That's their standard...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

You can tell if old flooring has asbestos if thick black flooring adhesive is underneath the tiles. However, homeowners should not cut into linoleum floors to look for this adhesive. Instead, hiring a specialist to test the floors is the only safe way to determine if old flooring has asbestos.

Epoxying over asbestos tiles is generally considered a safe option when done correctly. Epoxy acts as a sealant, encapsulating the asbestos tiles and preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The key is ensuring that the asbestos tiles are in good condition, firmly adhered to the substrate, and not damaged or deteriorating. This method is only appropriate for tiles that are undamaged and securely in place. If the asbestos tiles are already loose, damaged, or deteriorating, encapsulating them with epoxy may not be a sufficient solution, as it might not address the potential for ongoing asbestos exposure.

Asbestos can be found in many building materials, especially if the materials were installed more than 20 years ago. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM) can include:

Acoustic ceiling tiles
Furnace insulation
Home appliances
Fire-retardant clothing
Cement pipe
Pipe insulation
Wall and ceiling insulation
Vehicle brake pads
Vinyl flooring
Sprayed acoustic ceilings
Stove insulation
Patching compounds
Textured paints
Roofing shingles
Siding

Professional testing is advisable to ensure safety regulations are met, and accurate results are obtained using certified methods.

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.
