The actual testing went smoothly and the technician was knowledgeable and helpful. The problem came with the hard sell afterwards trying to get me to buy mold clean up supplies for a room that their own testing proved was no more "moldy" than what was already present in the outside air....

We were in a bind, had some leaked freon during a very bad heat wave. GQ responded immediately, which I credit them for - however, their guy came out, spent about five minutes just looking at my unit, then declared it should be completely replaced for $6,000-$8,000 (for a "lower end unit," in...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Asbestos was commonly used in cloth wiring, but not all types of cloth wiring contain it. The age, condition, and appearance of the wiring can provide clues as to whether asbestos is present or not, but the only way to know for sure if the wiring has asbestos is to have it tested.

DIY kits are available, but professional testing ensures accurate results and compliance with regulations.

According to the National Cancer Institute, asbestos-related diseases can take anywhere from 10 to 40 years for symptoms to appear. The health risks increase with prolonged and heavier exposure. Risk factors also include:

Amount of exposure
Chemical makeup, size, and shape of the asbestos fibers
Length of time a person is exposed to asbestos
Genetic factors
Source of exposure (direct exposure or secondhand exposure from someone directly exposed)

While asbestos can’t be directly absorbed through the skin—the fibers are too big—skin contact can still produce symptoms. Contact dermatitis can flare up in sensitive individuals but in most cases, the danger from asbestos comes from inhaling the fibers, or dust, that is produced when asbestos is disturbed. If you touch asbestos by accident, immediately wash yourself and your clothes.

Costs depend on property size, test types, and additional services like mold sampling.
