These people are con artists. I called them to fixed a gas leak around a coupling at the gas meter. The only reason I called them was because they were listed as a member of Atmos Energy Gas Dealer Network which offered a 20% discount (up to $250). The dispatcher who made my appointment said...

Frankly, because it had been so long ago I expected this was going to be a difficult process to resolve. Now, I'm not going to say it was fast resolution as it did take time. First, they wanted me to pay for a leak test @ $600. I was pretty clear where the leak was coming from as it only leaked...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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.

You can tell if old flooring has asbestos if thick black flooring adhesive is underneath the tiles. However, homeowners should not cut into linoleum floors to look for this adhesive. Instead, hiring a specialist to test the floors is the only safe way to determine if old flooring has asbestos.

Clear the area for access and inform the testing team about the building’s history and renovations.

Testing and analysis take 10 days to 2 weeks. Expedited services are available for urgent situations typically requiring higher fees.

Although the use of asbestos has declined since the 1980s, it remains in several different types of building construction materials for insulation and as a fire retardant. Typically, asbestos can be found in materials such as ceiling and floor tiles, heat-resistant fabrics and coatings, and roof shingles. You may also find asbestos in textured paint and patching compounds.
