I used RDO Construction to remodel my kitchen and 3 bathrooms and could not be happier with the projects. Everything turned out excellent, Renald and his crew are true professionals and would recommend his company to anyone looking to do any remodeling work.

They were deceiving about their pricing. Stated that it would be $100 for a test, when it was $1500 and every time they found a leak, it cost me more money. They just giving me a running total. Very deceiving.

I had initially contacted a much larger firm who insisted I conduct an environmental study of the home first to determine if other hazards were present (it was built in 1956, I'm pretty sure there are other "hazards" present) Of course they had a testing company they could refer me to and if I...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Asbestos testing takes place in two stages—collection and lab testing. Collection can take less than 20 minutes if a professional manages to get a direct sample. If air samples are required, then the pro will set up a testing device and return to collect it. In both cases, the sample is sent to a lab and results are confirmed or denied usually within one to two days.

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

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.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed.

When learning how to test for asbestos in a popcorn ceiling, you have an option for a DIY job or to hire a professional tester. You can purchase a kit at a hardware store and use personal protective equipment while doing the test. If you don’t want to risk any potential exposure to asbestos, hire a professional asbestos testing company instead.
