They came to take a sample of the flooring we needed to get tested the same day I called them. It took a little longer than expected to get the results back, but they did let me know as soon as the results were in.

The inspection was smooth. Inspector answered all my questions. The report was detailed but due to the large size of the house I had a bit of a rough time trying to cross-reference the test results in the report to the actual part of the house tested.

Thank you, Brian, for promptly returning my phone call and talking to me about how to get my ceiling tested for asbestos. I have the information to send a sample for lab testing. Brian was very reassuring and at least this first step will be cost-effective.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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.

Bathroom tiles can contain asbestos, just the same as patio tiles or kitchen tiles. Remember that asbestos was used primarily for its insulative and fire-resistant properties, both of which are desired in a house. Before we knew asbestos caused cancers and other diseases, it made a lot of sense to include it in many different building materials, including bathroom tiles.

If you think you’ve touched asbestos, do not put on a mask. This is important because you may take the asbestos fibers on your hands on trap them in the mask. Make your way to a sink and wash your hands thoroughly. Remove any clothes and seal them in a bag, then take a shower. Call your doctor and let them know you’ve been exposed to asbestos, and make sure you see them as soon as possible. The reason you keep the clothes is in case anyone wants to confirm the presence of asbestos.

Since the EPA partially banned asbestos in 1989, it is no longer used to manufacture new siding in the United States; production had largely ceased by the early 1980s. Many other countries, such as Canada, Iceland, and Denmark, also have bans on asbestos. However, asbestos siding is still present in many homes built before the late 1980s. The only definitive way to know if your siding contains asbestos is to have it professionally lab-tested.

Older textures may contain asbestos, requiring careful handling and professional inspection before work begins to ensure safety compliance.
