I had a great experience with Turner Environmental & Consulting. They were professional, thorough, and explained everything clearly during the mold inspection process. The testing was done quickly, and I received a detailed report within a few days. I highly recommend their services to...

Well, until I receive the written report I will not really understand how all this lead inspection really works. One week to wait for reports seems rather long since it affects my tenants and my pay. As a lab director myself I have to wonder where they send the tests needed

Absolutely professional! The closest I get to "bad news" is that they test but they don't remediate... because they take avoiding conflict of interest VERY seriously. I will definitely have Bona Fide do the follow-up testing to ensure the contractor does the job right, and would recommend the...

We got several estimates. Paul took the most time to walk us through the problem and potential solutions, teaching us along the way. He also the lowest estimate, by far. He did the work quickly and professionally. We did a metered test (over 14 days) and a charcoal test. Both came in under the...

Their price was lower than others. Until they added in the water test. Not sure if it was the lab charge, the business, or both. Though it's nice to know what's in your water.

The guy showed up and did the test. Although since it was October and only 72 degrees outside the test was not very accurate as the equipment did not have to run very hard to get to the temperture I set inside the house. If doing this test with Aire-Serve make sure it is done on a hot day in...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Since DIY asbestos removal isn’t the best option to save money, there are other steps that you can take to help cut costs when dealing with this project. After speaking with your asbestos removal expert, discuss if encapsulation is an option. If it is, you can save between 15% to 25% on overall project costs over demolition and disposal. In addition, when speaking with your professional, discuss if there are any tax credits available for your removal project. Finally, check with your homeowner’s insurance to see if any removal costs might be covered. However, be aware that this is usually only applicable if the asbestos is due to a covered incident, like a tree falling into your roof.

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.

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.

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

DIY kits are available, but professional testing ensures accurate results and compliance with regulations.
