Eco Flo Plumbing spent a lot of time preparing an estimate for me. The company also made two visits to my home for thorough inspections of my job site. The price quoted to me was fair and reasonable, and the sales person was extremely personable! I Wholeheartedly Recommend EcoFlow !

<p>This is not a "sour grapes" review because a few minor issues were found during the home inspection, but just the facts. Our Radon levels were a little high and we had a radon mitigation system installed within 72 hours of being notified. Also, our water softener was setup to backwash into...

Steve was very patient with us in regard to a start time because materials were slow to come in. He began on the date he set and the job was finished about 6 weeks later. I do think it could have been accomplished sooner if the crew arrived earlier (than 10 am sometimes as late as 1) and stayed...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

The microscopic asbestos fibers do not cause eye irritation, throat irritation, or lung irritation. If you are inhaling fibers, you will not know it. This lack of immediate symptoms is one of the reasons why asbestos is so dangerous. You cannot know for certain if you are inhaling fibers, which is why you must wear safety gear if you could have any chance of an exposure while working.

If your home was built before 1989 and still has original vinyl, there’s a high probability of asbestos mixed into the old flooring, which can harm you and your family if it’s disturbed from removal. If you suspect that you have asbestos, you’ll want to call in an asbestos removal expert to evaluate the situation.

Common areas include insulation, flooring, ceilings, and siding in older buildings. Professionals identify potential risks.

Professional asbestos testers or environmental consultants are the best people to call to test for asbestos. An asbestos testing company specializes in collecting and analyzing samples and will be the most qualified to do the job for you. An environmental consultant may not specialize in handling asbestos, but should still have the knowledge and know-how to safely collect a sample and send it off for analysis.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.
