Brandon is very knowledgeable and is super helpful. He located the source of the mold quickly, and taught me a lot about the how's and why's of mold growth. He did tests and sent samples to the lab. Will have results of mold type within 24 hours, and I'll go from there with remediation.

The testing process was so simple. I'm relieved I was able to get answers so quickly on what was in my air. I will definitely use this again every so often to make sure our home is pollutant-free. If I hadn't found this product, I don't know what I would have done to test my home. Very happy.

I liked them but they only test for mold. I needed a company that can remove mold. Even though I did not hire them, they took the time to explain helpful information I was unaware of. The customer service was great.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

No, an N95 mask will not protect against asbestos and many other hazardous materials, such as carbon monoxide, gas, chemical vapors, and other gases. You will need a respirator specifically designed to protect against asbestos. However, if you suspect asbestos is present in your home, hire an asbestos abatement professional immediately and avoid the area until they arrive for the inspection.

If you own a stereo microscope, you should be able to see the fibers. The stereo microscope often can perform magnification up to 50x. But unless you have experience viewing asbestos fibers, you may not know exactly what you are seeing. Some fibers are curly, while others are long and straight. Blue, brown, white, and gray colored fibers are all possible.

Testing is crucial to identify harmful asbestos fibers common in building materials from older properties, ensuring safe environments and health.

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.

Asbestos itself does not typically leak from a roof. However, if an asbestos-containing roof is damaged or deteriorated, it can release asbestos fibers into the air. This can occur when the roof is disturbed, such as during maintenance or repairs, or due to weathering over time. Exposure to airborne asbestos fibers can be harmful to health, so it is important to address any damaged asbestos roofs promptly and safely.
