Spoke with Samantha to set up appointment. Although not the technician, seemed very knowledgeable and helpful. That right there made my decision to use them a lot easier. Edson was the technician and genuinely cared to make sure his readings and tests identified the issue.

I hired Mold Spotters to test for mold in my attic and storage space. Both areas tested positive for mold. I hired a separate company to remediate, then called back Mold Spotters to retest. Dave is very punctual, reliable and professional. Very pleasant to work with.

Very poor at first. Sales agent measured PH wrong and the wrong tanks were installed. Took me two weeks to convince them there was a problem. When they came back out they realized that PH had been measured wrong. Another week for new tanks. Never came back to test again plumber was awesome.

They did a top notch job, they came when they said they would. The worker (Josue) was great he explained everything and showed my wife and I what he did. The test came back a week or two later and it was at good levels. I would recommend this company to anyone that had this issue.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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

Epoxying over asbestos tiles is generally considered a safe option when done correctly. Epoxy acts as a sealant, encapsulating the asbestos tiles and preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The key is ensuring that the asbestos tiles are in good condition, firmly adhered to the substrate, and not damaged or deteriorating. This method is only appropriate for tiles that are undamaged and securely in place. If the asbestos tiles are already loose, damaged, or deteriorating, encapsulating them with epoxy may not be a sufficient solution, as it might not address the potential for ongoing asbestos exposure.

Asbestos can be found in many building materials, especially if the materials were installed more than 20 years ago. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM) can include:

Acoustic ceiling tiles
Furnace insulation
Home appliances
Fire-retardant clothing
Cement pipe
Pipe insulation
Wall and ceiling insulation
Vehicle brake pads
Vinyl flooring
Sprayed acoustic ceilings
Stove insulation
Patching compounds
Textured paints
Roofing shingles
