While they were professional and knowledgeable, I felt they were a little high price wise. For the price, I was expecting them to test for a wide range of allergens. But that was my fault that I did not ask more questions before agreeing for the service. I would recommend them for mold testing...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on the number of samples, property size, and lab processing fees.

If you can locate building records, you may be able simply to see what type of tiles (or bonding agent) was used. Any flooring made between 1950 and 1989 more than likely contains asbestos. Asbestos tiles can also be slightly thicker than other tiles and often measure 9” x 9”, 12” x 12”, and 18” x 18. Black mastic was a commonly used adhesive that contains asbestos.

There are products that still contain asbestos, but they were typically installed decades ago. Common places where you may still find asbestos-containing materials are in siding, wrapped around ductwork, in older appliances (i.e., stove and gravity furnaces), and in floors. Asbestos was primarily used as an insulator, so anywhere in an older home where you lose heat is where you will most likely find asbestos.

Asbestos testing is conducted by collecting samples from materials suspected to contain asbestos and analyzing them in laboratories for confirmed presence.

Through air sampling devices and surface swabs in key areas of concern.
