What year did they stop putting asbestos in linoleum?

• <div><p>Most manufacturers stopped putting asbestos in linoleum before 1980 due to public concerns about its toxicity. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn’t ban asbestos-containing products until 1989, and a comprehensive ban was not announced until 2024. This means that homes built after 1989 may still have asbestos in their flooring.</p></div>

Got a great explanation over the phone of how we did not need an expensive Asbestos test done if it was just for piece of mind. I got quotes from $800-$3k from competitors and they came in at $600 including all the tests. Great quality and easy to work with.

If you hire a dedicated asbestos inspector near you in addition to your local home inspector, it will cost between $200 and $800.
