""From the call to set up the appointment to when we had our evaluation, Smart Environmental Services was the most professional, knowledgeable, and kind service I've ever booked. Quick service and setup, keen attention to detail, and very courteous inside the home. (It felt as if they were a neighbor we had known for a long time.) Not only did they save us money regarding our asbestos, they gave us a wealth of helpful knowledge during our evaluation. I will call them for any further services on our home and recommend them 100 times over! Thanks again for helping our home be a safe place Mr. Pony and Smart Environmental Services!"

"UPDATE: Since the situation below happened, Veteran Construction took charge of the situation and explained that the situation does not reflect their business practice or company policy on engaging potential clients. Therefore, I have updated my rating to a C since it perhaps was a misunderstanding with the individual. However, I will still leave the review below since it did happen and I would hate for this to happen to anyone else. I truly hope that this was an isolated incident.

After the company?s response, I have updated my statement to show that this was a disagreement with one of their
employees rather than the company:
After every hail storm that we get in Central Indiana, we get a flood of Storm Chasers come through our subdivision giving us "free estimates" on any damages on our roof and vinyl siding. However, I had never had one of them call me a liar and a thief for not accepting their free inspection/estimate. One of the representatives from "Veteran Construction" stopped by, he mentioned that they were going to be working on our street and he would love to have someone drop by to give us a free inspection/estimate on any damages from the storm. I politely explained that we were all set and thanked him for stopping by. He then asked how come we didn?t need an estimate. I explained that our roof was brand new and I had done an inspections of the vinyl siding and I didn't think we needed any help at this time. He then said that he was going to leave me with "a million dollar question" and he pulled out a piece of paper from a huge stack of duplicates from his folder. The paper was a double-sided "million dollar" bill with Ronald Reagan on the front. When I flipped it, it basically asked me if I thought I was good enough to go to heaven and went on
to explain that lies (even white lies, fibs, or exaggeration) were considered lying. It went on to ask if I was a thief and followed up with an explanation of what it means to steal. Then it told me that I needed to repent or I could end up in prison for being a liar and a thief. Even worse for me, I would not go to heaven but rather h***. I can't believe that someone would think that this is the right way to do business. I had my roof changed 3 years ago and on my inspection of the siding I found a small hole on the vinyl that I can fix myself. Other representatives from different companies just left their business card and asked me to call them if I needed help, which I would gladly do. This individual insulted me, my religious beliefs, and my principles just because I declined an inspection. I hope this was an isolated incident and it won?t happen again. It is best to separate business with personal thoughts on certain individuals. As Veteran Construction explained, I hope that the appropriateness of the situation was discussed with the employee so they know the difference."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

You are not really supposed to seal asbestos with paint, but in theory it could work—the caveat being that this is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. The only real way to seal asbestos is with the professional application of an encapsulating material like epoxy. Due to the negative effect asbestos can have on your home, however, it is usually the best course of action to accept a costly fix and remove the material entirely.

By using PPE, sealing work areas, and following containment procedures.

Performing abatement for asbestos means the contractor removes or encapsulates the asbestos to protect your family’s health. The term abatement refers to the steps required to keep asbestos fibers from moving into the air. Understanding what asbestos abatement is can help you discuss the case with your contractors by understanding the jargon they use. 

The legality of covering asbestos tile with new flooring can vary by location. In some cities, it is not legal to cover asbestos tile due to the risk of causing fibers to become airborne. While a professional method called encapsulation can seal the asbestos in place, it is not always an appropriate solution. In other areas, covering the tile is a legal and reasonable option to prevent fibers from spreading and reduce health hazards. However, the best long-term solution is to have the asbestos professionally and completely removed from your home.

Typically, homeowners insurance does not cover asbestos removal or abatement. Most policies exclude coverage for pollutants, contaminants, and hazardous materials, which includes asbestos. Because asbestos is often considered a pre-existing condition in older homes, its removal is usually viewed as a maintenance expense rather than an insurable loss. However, there is a key exception: if asbestos-containing materials are discovered or disturbed due to a covered event, such as a fire or storm, your policy may cover the abatement as part of the necessary repairs. For example, if a storm damages your roof and an insurance adjuster discovers asbestos while inspecting the damage, the policy might pay for the removal cost. If removal is not covered and is outside your budget, you might consider encapsulating the asbestos. The viability of this option depends on the condition of the contaminated materials. It is recommended to speak with an asbestos abatement specialist to understand your options.
