Pure Mold will spray to kill the mold, but will not physically wipe the Mold down. The home failed a secondary *re-inspection*, a few days after the initial air fogging, because there was still visible mold. I contacted Daniel a few times asking if he had the results of the air quality test...

They kept me informed by text of when they would be arriving and who would be doing the work. They arrived at the indicated time and performed the necessary tests. They seemed to be very honest people and were very friendly.

Tony was friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We had results back the day after the test. Results indicated that we did not have an excessive amount of mold. No remediation was needed. The cost seemed comparable to others in the area.

Very good. Can't complaint. They were on time. Did a good job. Answered my questions. The only company I found at least not to do the pressure test unless it's absolutely needed.

,Where do I start? First we had Brian Kremmel come to the house and give us an estimate for the heat pump/air conditioner. He measured the entire house so that he would know what size unit we needed. Wow! What a nice young man...and clean too! He then gave us a quote and wasn't satisfied...

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.

Costs depend on the number of samples, property size, and lab processing fees.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.

If you know your popcorn ceiling has asbestos, you should not attempt to clean it. It simply is not possible to learn how to clean asbestos safely without potentially releasing microscopic fibers into the air that could lead to severe illness in the future. Avoid disturbing or cleaning the ceiling until the asbestos removal company can get rid of the popcorn ceiling.

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.
