They did a fantastic job with my tub to stand-up shower conversion. My tub was an old cast iron tub, hard to get out and really heavy to remove. The debris and dust from the removal was clean- up and removed. It was like they had never been here and the new shower just appeared. Robert did...

My pool, built by Dolphin Pools and Spas, is two seasons old. During the entire first season I assumed something that wasn?t correct. Our water felt different than pool water I?d known before. I chalked this feel of what I can best describe as a silky, thicker-feeling water to the fact that I...

Services test for allergens, mold, VOCs, and carbon monoxide levels to ensure a healthy indoor environment.

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.

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.

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.

When learning how to test for asbestos in a popcorn ceiling, you have an option for a DIY job or to hire a professional tester. You can purchase a kit at a hardware store and use personal protective equipment while doing the test. If you don’t want to risk any potential exposure to asbestos, hire a professional asbestos testing company instead.
