Beware. Grandview will bill you for a backflow test, and say they performed it- but he (the owner scott rickman) rarely actually tests them. He will if he thinks the customer is home or watching...other than that he bills you for it, submits the paperwork to the water companies, but writes...

Very well. However, we are awaiting the results of the test results they left and we sent in. Number is still a little high so they may have to come back out and install another pipe but we won't know until we get the results back. Only complaint would be that they haven't followed up with us....

Not so good. Please see pictures attached. A standard pressure test would have revealed the missed connection but this was not performed prior to walling up the new plumbing connections. Fast forward to April 24th 2016 a slow water leak was discovered on a supply line of the newer plumbing. (< 3...

He came out and tested for mold and went ahead and treated my mold problem free of charge since there wasn't very much to treat. I would highly recommend him. He was very honest, informative and professional.

I was disappointed because I had asked them to do a routine maintenace but all they did was test the system and tell me what I already knew. <br /> I wanted them to lubricate and clean, etc....that's my idea of annual maintenance, since that is what other vendors do. <br /> <br /> <br />

Showed up on time...did the job as described...chatted a bit, then left. <br /> <br /> Quite happy with the entire process. If you have questions about the 'tightness' of your home, this testing will point out the weak spots that need addressing.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

While asbestos can’t be directly absorbed through the skin—the fibers are too big—skin contact can still produce symptoms. Contact dermatitis can flare up in sensitive individuals but in most cases, the danger from asbestos comes from inhaling the fibers, or dust, that is produced when asbestos is disturbed. If you touch asbestos by accident, immediately wash yourself and your clothes.

If you hire a dedicated asbestos inspector near you in addition to your local home inspector, it will cost between $200 and $800. If, however, your general home inspector happens to be certified as an asbestos inspector, they can charge you a smaller fee and tack on the cost to the home inspection. In general, home inspectors do not do physical testing, but will provide a visual assessment so you know what you are working with.

No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos. All residential building materials used since the mid-1980s stopped including asbestos, so new popcorn ceilings have no risk of asbestos. You can still create a textured drywall ceiling with a popcorn texture if you like, but new techniques have no risk of adding asbestos.

Testing and analysis take 10 days to 2 weeks. Expedited services are available for urgent situations typically requiring higher fees.

If you suspect exposure to asbestos, prioritize seeking medical advice by informing your healthcare provider about the potential exposure with clear details about the circumstances that led to the exposure. Regular health check-ups and screenings if you work in high-risk industries or live in a home with asbestos are essential for early detection of any asbestos-related conditions. You should also consider consulting occupational health experts or legal professionals for guidance on potential next steps and preventive measures.
