Overall I was pleased with Hearthstone Home Inspections. The inspector Richard arrived early and was thorough when walking us through his findings. Considering I opted for extra services aside from the basic home inspection, I thought the price was reasonable (except for testing of lead in the...

Don is very sharp. He explained the testing process in detail. Don was at my house exactly when he said he would be. While doing the mold test he looked around my basement and pointed out a few things with mechanicals that were a problem. He is a home inspector also. I highly recommend Don.

They were great. They came right away despite it being a very busy time of year. They set up the asbestos testing (they do not do this themselves but refer out) and connected me with the company so I could easily schedule a time for them to come out and test.

It went pretty well. A technician came out, on time, and did the work in an efficient, professional manner. The technician was polite and agreeable, and cleaned up thoroughly when he was done. Unfortunately, the test they gave me to run after the work was done showed the radon levels were still...

The pre-sales test is rather convincing, but the service and professionalism once you sign is awful. First, the Kinetico system is way too expensive. If you get it, know that the parts are expensive and can only be received through few vendors. We had over 10+ technicians back to our house to...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Clear the area for access and inform the testing team about the building’s history and renovations.

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.

Professional asbestos testers or environmental consultants are the best people to call to test for asbestos. An asbestos testing company specializes in collecting and analyzing samples and will be the most qualified to do the job for you. An environmental consultant may not specialize in handling asbestos, but should still have the knowledge and know-how to safely collect a sample and send it off for analysis.

Mold, VOCs, radon, carbon monoxide, and particulate matter are typically measured.

Damaged tiles can release asbestos fibers into the air. Anyone in the surrounding area who may inhale the fibers will have them settled in the lining of internal organs. Over time, it may lead to serious health conditions such as lung cancer and mesothelioma.

The only safe way to prevent these conditions is to avoid exposure to asbestos at all costs, even for a short period of time.
