I found it quite expensive. There wasn't alot of work to be done. He looked around house , he did one air quality test inside in one room and took two samples with tape for slide to send to lab.. Cost $379. I do feel confident about the work that was done.

Every year, they charged a $50 tank rental fee for 2 tanks holding 50 gallons of propane total. It occurred to me that I had never seen Spicer servicing or safety testing the tanks in the many years I lived at this location. I called them to ask what exactly the $50 per year rental fee pays for...

The test itself was fine. I have also had my oil changed here on previous occasions and they do a good job. My only complaint is that they get very busy. So unless you go at an unusual time, or have an appointment, you should expect to wait a while. But solid work otherwise. <br />

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it.

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required.

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.

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.

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.

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.
