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.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Common areas include insulation, flooring, ceilings, and siding in older buildings. Professionals identify potential risks.

Acoustic ceiling tiles

Home appliances

Cement pipe
Pipe insulation
Wall and ceiling insulation
Vehicle brake pads

If asbestos is found, it is crucial to consult with a professional. They will provide recommendations for appropriate abatement actions, which may include safe removal, containment, sealing, or enclosure. All actions must be planned and executed in accordance with local regulations for handling asbestos.

Asbestos was most commonly produced and integrated into building products from the 1920s to the late 1980s. In reality, asbestos use should have ceased much sooner because asbestos was linked to cancer in studies produced as early as the 1950s. You can even extend that number past the 1980s due to stockpiled materials and because some countries treat asbestos use differently. It may also be found more in commercial applications than residential.

Asbestos was commonly used in cloth wiring, but not all types of cloth wiring contain it. The age, condition, and appearance of the wiring can provide clues as to whether asbestos is present or not, but the only way to know for sure if the wiring has asbestos is to have it tested.
