If you've ever done a remodel you know how stressful it is and how messy it can be!! We've done one before this and I have to say; this is by far our best experience. This company made it as stress free as possible, they always cleaned up after themselves and we're very polite! 10/10

The technician who came to test was great and would definitely recommend him again. However I gave them a low rating because they still have not called to go over the results with me and it has been over two weeks.

I was very happy with the individual that performed the testing. I would have liked a bit more information as to what the test would tell me. I asked if the test would give me a clear YES or NO result, and was told it would. Test came back in the 'MAYBE' range, an option I did not know...

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

Some pros may recommend covering a popcorn ceiling that tests positive for asbestos with beadboard ceiling planks or drywall. The cost to install a beadboard ceiling averages more than $5,000, but you likely will pay more than the average for the installer to deal with the asbestos safely. Installing a beadboard ceiling or new drywall will disturb the asbestos and release some microscopic fibers, so the installer will need to take precautions.

There are products that still contain asbestos, but they were typically installed decades ago. Common places where you may still find asbestos-containing materials are in siding, wrapped around ductwork, in older appliances (i.e., stove and gravity furnaces), and in floors. Asbestos was primarily used as an insulator, so anywhere in an older home where you lose heat is where you will most likely find asbestos.
