"We received a somewhat high-pressure sales pitch after seeing them highly recommended. We do not ever have standing water in our basement but get a little moisture here and there, so I was not in a huge hurry to get this done, but I did also wanted to seal up the walls to help prevent mice from getting in. What the salesperson promised me, as far as expectations of the work they would do, was enough to get me to sign on as a fill-in job at a lower rate. I signed the contract in August and was told they would brush out any loose mortar and fill in any big gaps between stones in my stone and mortar foundation. They told me that, as a fill-in, I would most likely have the work done before October, November at the latest. They insisted on installing the EZ Breathe vent right away, even though there were clearly big gaps under my porch, which would just draw in the outside air, so we never run it. October came and went. So did November December, without a whisper from them. Then I got a call in January, a day or two before the end of the window on my contract for when the work is expected to be complete. They want to do a test break of the concrete on the floor of my basement. No other info is given, like when they might be starting. I tell them I want to delay things until Spring, because I do not want them in and out and my pipes exposed, due to the cold. They send me a new contract to sign, so I begrudgingly sign it. It was my first opportunity to get out and I regret not doing so. We reschedule for March. Then COVID hits, and I finally get a call saying that they have to reschedule me for July, AND I have to sign a new contract AGAIN... Again, an opportunity I should have taken to walk away. Shortly before work is supposed to start, I get a call that they are behind schedule and have to push it to August. So now, a week shy of 1 year, they call and say that instead of sending a foreman out the Friday before, so that they can go over my concerns and how they will do the install, they tell me that the foreman will show up with the crew on Tuesday. *Sigh* Fine... Let just get this over with. Tuesday comes and the crew shows up with no foreman. I am told the guy that walked me through things has a good experience, and that the owner trusts him, but that is not the best person to tell me that they think they need to out 2 sump pumps in, but they need to check with the foreman and that they want to get started right away without him. Said he would be there the next day. So, they want to start work without a plan... Another red flag. Should have told them, no, but this is my first major hire of a contractor, so I let them start breaking up the floor inside. Foreman shows up at noon the same day. Says he agrees that 2 pumps are necessary, I express my concern, he says he will check with a production manager and let me know the next day. The next day he verifies 2 pumps, no cost to me. I discuss other issues, he says they do not fill cracks unless they can see someone on the other side of the wall. I call the office and complain. The owner makes a trip out, we discuss the issues. He tells him to fix them, tells foreman to take pictures. I feel better. I have to remind the foreman of things, pictures of problem areas were not taken before they hung encapsulation. Sounds like they did not address some of my major concerns. At that point, I was fed up and just wanted them to finish and leave. Gave me a free warranty extension for my troubles. The crew worked hard but was messy. Had to point out cigarette butts and garbage they left on my lawn. Still ended up finding a sweatshirt and red bull can in my basement... Not as bad as some stories I have heard, but it is not that hard to clean up after yourself. Would have left a pickaxe here if I did not remind them to take it. My credit was checked 4 times before the job was done."

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

If you have an older electrical system with fraying wires and other signs of damage, removal  may be the best course of action. When asbestos begins to break down, it's more likely to become airborne, increasing the risk of health issues when it's inhaled.

However, if the system is in good condition and doesn't have visible signs of wear or damage, leaving it alone may be the safest course of action. An asbestos abatement and removal professional can help you determine the best way to proceed.

Asbestos is a carcinogen, meaning it increases the risk of cancer. Inhaling asbestos fibers is linked to several respiratory issues, including asbestosis, or scarring on the lungs, lung cancer, and mesothelioma, another type of cancer. There's also a link between asbestos exposure and an increased risk of colon cancer and other cancers of the digestive system.

Usually, the people most at risk for disease related to asbestos exposure are those who spend a lot of time working around the material without protection. Electricians who work with asbestos wire have a higher risk of developing mesothelioma or lung cancer due to their exposure.

Asbestos testing takes place in two stages—collection and lab testing. Collection can take less than 20 minutes if a professional manages to get a direct sample. If air samples are required, then the pro will set up a testing device and return to collect it. In both cases, the sample is sent to a lab and results are confirmed or denied usually within one to two days.

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.

If you think you’ve touched asbestos, do not put on a mask. This is important because you may take the asbestos fibers on your hands on trap them in the mask. Make your way to a sink and wash your hands thoroughly. Remove any clothes and seal them in a bag, then take a shower. Call your doctor and let them know you’ve been exposed to asbestos, and make sure you see them as soon as possible. The reason you keep the clothes is in case anyone wants to confirm the presence of asbestos.
