Professional, prompt and reasonably priced. I hired AIO to perform an asbestos abatement (small scale project) and they showed up on time, performed the job well, provided the necessary documentation and testing. Zero complaints. Would use again.

Britton showed up on time and performed quality work replacing an aging gas line. They walked me through the testing process and we tested the pool heater together. I recommend Britton, especially if you want to hire a local small business for your plumbing needs.

Nick reviewed our problem, recommended a solution, provided the estimate and did the final testing. Technicians Therah and Tyrone did all the prep-work and cleanup. All were professional. We had other estimates, one similar and one much higher. Glad we chose Dry Effect.

No, you do not have to worry about new popcorn ceilings having asbestos. All residential building materials used since the mid-1980s stopped including asbestos, so new popcorn ceilings have no risk of asbestos. You can still create a textured drywall ceiling with a popcorn texture if you like, but new techniques have no risk of adding asbestos.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.

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.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed.
