Was here when promised. Listened intently to problem and verified information. Went right to work on fixing. I have 6 valves and knew which one was the "problem one," tested, retested, and we gave it a try. Water came out first try. Made a couple quick trips to check and another test for wire...

The contractor said he would find a plumber to do the test and the repair on the toilet and the drain as well as replace all the angle stops at a reasonable price (which later I found out the quote was not that reasonable). He never returned my calls for the job.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Clear the area for access and inform the testing team about the building’s history and renovations.

Because of the danger of inhaling asbestos fibers, figuring out through testing whether your popcorn ceiling contains asbestos is definitely worth it. If the popcorn ceiling texture has asbestos, remove it as soon as possible to keep your family safe. Any home built in or before the 1980s that has popcorn ceilings could have asbestos, necessitating testing. Asbestos carries several health risks for people who inhale it, including the increased chance of developing lung cancer in the future.

Testing and analysis take 10 days to 2 weeks. Expedited services are available for urgent situations typically requiring higher fees.

Vermiculite insulation that comes from a particular mine before 1990 is likely to contain asbestos. This is particularly true in the U.S. However, not all types of vermiculite insulation contain asbestos. Since you can't detect the presence of asbestos without special equipment, it's best to assume that the insulation contains the dangerous mineral and to either leave it alone or hire a professional to handle it.

When asbestos fibers become airborne, they enter a person's respiratory system. These fibers scar and damage the lungs and often lead to serious cancers like mesothelioma. Like many dangers in the house, asbestos isn’t easy to see when it could be causing serious damage. The amount of time exposed, combined with the person’s tolerance for asbestos inhalation and the amount inhaled, will all contribute to health problems.
