Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

The cost for asbestos testing typically ranges from $400 to $800. The final price depends on several factors, including the number of samples needed, the size and age of the property, and the professional's expertise required for comprehensive testing. Larger or older properties may have higher costs.

There are products that still contain asbestos, but they were typically installed decades ago. Common places where you may still find asbestos-containing materials are in siding, wrapped around ductwork, in older appliances (i.e., stove and gravity furnaces), and in floors. Asbestos was primarily used as an insulator, so anywhere in an older home where you lose heat is where you will most likely find asbestos.

Asbestos is absolutely cancerous. In fact, around 4% of all lung cancer cases are the result of asbestos exposure. This is why we recommend a full, professional removal and cleaning of any asbestos found in your home. If you are unsure whether there is any present, you should call a pro who will inspect your property.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), you should contact the following officials to report a case of asbestos exposure:

Asbestos subject matter experts in your state
EPA regional office
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Assistance Information Service Hotline via mail, email, or phone
EPA’s Asbestos Ombudsman via phone or fax
