Joe's work was exactly as described in the proposal. He kept his commitments. The work performed was to wash our screening and deck around the pool. I had pool water tested the day after and the water quality was good as Joe had promised. None of the plants were damaged. Job well done.

<p>These guys were great and their work is excellent. My tub was beige and ugly - it looks like a brand new bath tub now! The step-in shower was in bad shape with excessive grout on the floor from the previous owner, mismatched tile, and some gaps in the caulking. It looks just wonderful now,...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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.

If you can locate building records, you may be able simply to see what type of tiles (or bonding agent) was used. Any flooring made between 1950 and 1989 more than likely contains asbestos. Asbestos tiles can also be slightly thicker than other tiles and often measure 9” x 9”, 12” x 12”, and 18” x 18. Black mastic was a commonly used adhesive that contains asbestos.

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

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

Federal law doesn’t require homeowners to disclose the presence of asbestos in their home, but some states and local municipalities may require it. That is why it’s important to test an older home for asbestos and other health hazards before moving forward with a sale.
