We were very appreciative of the fact that they came immediately to do the testing and had a very quick turn around time. They were very professional and recommended a wonderful contractor to come and do the abatement. The whole project from testing to abatement was done in 5 days!

Simply put they informed the State on a pressure test failure. The leak was later determined to be on the top and there was no oil spillage. Unfortunately their faulty information lead to numerous encounters with the state etc. They were trying to get the soil remediation job too. DO NOT USE.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Bathroom tiles can contain asbestos, just the same as patio tiles or kitchen tiles. Remember that asbestos was used primarily for its insulative and fire-resistant properties, both of which are desired in a house. Before we knew asbestos caused cancers and other diseases, it made a lot of sense to include it in many different building materials, including bathroom tiles.

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

Whether or not to buy a home containing asbestos is ultimately a decision for the homebuyer, and there are several things to consider. When in good condition and contained, asbestos is unlikely to present a health risk—it’s when those tiny fibers are loose and airborne that they become a problem. Consider any renovations you plan on doing to the home that could disturb existing asbestos and the cost of removal. If an inspection finds asbestos in a home on the market, you could negotiate with the seller for a lower price, though this isn’t a sure thing.

Asbestos was most commonly produced and integrated into building products from the 1920s to the late 1980s. In reality, asbestos use should have ceased much sooner because asbestos was linked to cancer in studies produced as early as the 1950s. You can even extend that number past the 1980s due to stockpiled materials and because some countries treat asbestos use differently. It may also be found more in commercial applications than residential.

Costs depend on test type, home size, number of testing locations, and whether follow-up testing is required.
