Don was very helpful! He took his time to explain the process of the air mold test and what the outcomes would be. He's very professional - I highly recommend! Thank you!

Well, until I receive the written report I will not really understand how all this lead inspection really works. One week to wait for reports seems rather long since it affects my tenants and my pay. As a lab director myself I have to wonder where they send the tests needed

We got several estimates. Paul took the most time to walk us through the problem and potential solutions, teaching us along the way. He also the lowest estimate, by far. He did the work quickly and professionally. We did a metered test (over 14 days) and a charcoal test. Both came in under the...

The guy showed up and did the test. Although since it was October and only 72 degrees outside the test was not very accurate as the equipment did not have to run very hard to get to the temperture I set inside the house. If doing this test with Aire-Serve make sure it is done on a hot day in...

Due to the age of our house, he advised me to perform an easy (bought at home depot) lead test. Unfortunately, our home tested positive and we will likely vinyl side the house. However, if I ever need painting done on the interior of our house, Sam will be the first painter I call. He's very...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

No, but it’s common that they do. Gravity furnaces weren’t terribly efficient so wrapping either the ductwork in asbestos, the furnace itself, or both, was something done regularly. This allowed the system to retain more heat. At the time, this greatly enhanced the efficiency of the furnaces but it wasn’t until later that we became aware of just how carcinogenic and dangerous asbestos could be.

Yes. Gutting a house to the studs may actually be a good option if you believe a home contains toxic materials like asbestos, mold, or lead paint. However, this must be done under the supervision of licensed remediation experts.

Epoxying over asbestos tiles is generally considered a safe option when done correctly. Epoxy acts as a sealant, encapsulating the asbestos tiles and preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The key is ensuring that the asbestos tiles are in good condition, firmly adhered to the substrate, and not damaged or deteriorating. This method is only appropriate for tiles that are undamaged and securely in place. If the asbestos tiles are already loose, damaged, or deteriorating, encapsulating them with epoxy may not be a sufficient solution, as it might not address the potential for ongoing asbestos exposure.

The microscopic asbestos fibers do not cause eye irritation, throat irritation, or lung irritation. If you are inhaling fibers, you will not know it. This lack of immediate symptoms is one of the reasons why asbestos is so dangerous. You cannot know for certain if you are inhaling fibers, which is why you must wear safety gear if you could have any chance of an exposure while working.

Federal law doesn’t require homeowners to disclose the presence of asbestos in their home, but some states and local municipalities may require it. That is why it’s important to test an older home for asbestos and other health hazards before moving forward with a sale.
