This company was the most reasonably priced company to come out to test my project for asbestos! I got quotes from $200-$500 from other companies. This company beat them all! I was very pleased with the services and help of Dave K!

Another plumber I've used before couldn't make it out for a week. I was obviously happy that Ben and Brandon could fit us into their schedule the same day. Ben let me know they were on their way to another job and he'd call when they were done. He called when they were ready to head to our place...

This was a sales pitch, but that was not what I was expecting AT ALL. I was contacted by the company and asked if I wanted to have my water tested, so that is what I thought I was having done. I became slightly suspicious when the day before the "test," a representative from the company called...

No, not all popcorn ceilings have asbestos, but a vast majority do. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned its use in 1973, although it still may have been used up through the early ‘90s. But, in general, homes built or remodeled before the early ‘80s likely utilized materials with asbestos. That being said, a professional test is the only way to determine for sure.

It is strongly advised not to touch or disturb asbestos-containing materials unless necessary. Asbestos fibers can be released into the air when the material is damaged or disturbed, posing serious health risks if inhaled. It is best to leave any handling of asbestos to trained professionals who can remove the asbestos safely.

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.
