Filled our a/c unit with freon $513.21 without first checking for leaks and the next day it was empty of freon. Quoted $1800 for a new head unit plus trip charges and labor. New A/C contractor said they should have tested the system first and that only the coils needed to be replaced. So...

I did get an estimate for the work needed, but did not need all the work on the estimate. I have asked for a refund. And they are working on a fair price. If I agree on the price, I would give them more than 5 stars if possible.

Mr. Barton was on time, determined what was needed and, after obtaining parts he needed, promptly made the necessary repairs to my irrigation system. We were unable to test the system completely after repairs were made, as piping at my dock was broken and was inaccessible at that time. I would...

Percolation Tests FAQs, answered by experts

Since the EPA partially banned asbestos in 1989, it is no longer used to manufacture new siding in the United States; production had largely ceased by the early 1980s. Many other countries, such as Canada, Iceland, and Denmark, also have bans on asbestos. However, asbestos siding is still present in many homes built before the late 1980s. The only definitive way to know if your siding contains asbestos is to have it professionally lab-tested.

If you hire a dedicated asbestos inspector near you in addition to your local home inspector, it will cost between $200 and $800. If, however, your general home inspector happens to be certified as an asbestos inspector, they can charge you a smaller fee and tack on the cost to the home inspection. In general, home inspectors do not do physical testing, but will provide a visual assessment so you know what you are working with.

Professional testing is advisable to ensure safety regulations are met, and accurate results are obtained using certified methods.

If you have an older electrical system with fraying wires and other signs of damage, removal may be the best course of action. When asbestos begins to break down, it's more likely to become airborne, increasing the risk of health issues when it's inhaled.

However, if the system is in good condition and doesn't have visible signs of wear or damage, leaving it alone may be the safest course of action. An asbestos abatement and removal professional can help you determine the best way to proceed.

Because of the danger of inhaling asbestos fibers, figuring out through testing whether your popcorn ceiling contains asbestos is definitely worth it. If the popcorn ceiling texture has asbestos, remove it as soon as possible to keep your family safe. Any home built in or before the 1980s that has popcorn ceilings could have asbestos, necessitating testing. Asbestos carries several health risks for people who inhale it, including the increased chance of developing lung cancer in the future.
