The plumber was quick to call me and quick to come fix my problem, but I was floored by the charge to change out the bathtub spout with a new diverter. I'm a senior on only Social Security caring for my disabled daughter so the over $400 bill hurt. I probably won't use Anji again due to the cost.

They did exactly what I wanted and got it done in a timely manner. They brought the right equipment and did get the job done precisely as I wanted it even though the digging was more difficult than anticipated. I paid more than I had wanted but the job is now done. Thank you.

He failed to inform me of peak times to test for mold. It was more important to take my money than to get the best accurate readings. He did not take infrared images either that he talked about. He was very nice, but I was disappointed having gone with the long term expert. The prime time to...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Depending on the size of your home, the inspection process could take a few hours or a few days. While inspecting your home, the asbestos specialist will take small sections of the potentially contaminated material. They will then send the sample to an accredited laboratory or the local health department for testing.

The cost of asbestos testing depends on your location, the home's size, and the testing area's complexity. Plan to spend between $230 and $800 for testing. During testing and while handling potential asbestos, the specialist may wear protective gear, including gloves, overalls, appropriate footwear, and respiratory equipment.

Vermiculite insulation that comes from a particular mine before 1990 is likely to contain asbestos. This is particularly true in the U.S. However, not all types of vermiculite insulation contain asbestos. Since you can't detect the presence of asbestos without special equipment, it's best to assume that the insulation contains the dangerous mineral and to either leave it alone or hire a professional to handle it.

Testing is crucial to identify harmful asbestos fibers common in building materials from older properties, ensuring safe environments and health.

If your home was built before 1989 and still has original vinyl, there’s a high probability of asbestos mixed into the old flooring, which can harm you and your family if it’s disturbed from removal. If you suspect that you have asbestos, you’ll want to call in an asbestos removal expert to evaluate the situation.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned the use of asbestos pipe insulation in certain applications in 1975. It released further bans in 1989 and 2019. While asbestos pipe insulation was common from the 1930s to 1970s, its use fell off after the 1970s due to public concern and the EPA's actions.
