Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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.

Sampling typically takes 1-3 hours, and depending on the provider, lab results are available within 2-7 days.

Often found in old insulation, tiles, and roofing materials in pre-1980s buildings.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.

Typical methods for asbestos removal include encapsulation, enclosure, and complete removal.
