Preying on people's expectations, they'll come to your door saying they "just need to test your water", and that they're doing it only to "mark you off the list". If they were just upfront about them selling the services, I wouldn't be so put off by this...

He showed up at the time he said he would. The antenna was still in the box, so he assembled it, ran cable, tested and installed it, all at the original price quoted. The exterior antenna works so much better than the indoor, it was definitely worth having it installed.

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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

No, an N95 mask will not protect against asbestos and many other hazardous materials, such as carbon monoxide, gas, chemical vapors, and other gases. You will need a respirator specifically designed to protect against asbestos. However, if you suspect asbestos is present in your home, hire an asbestos abatement professional immediately and avoid the area until they arrive for the inspection.

A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won’t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed.

It is not recommended to drill into asbestos siding because doing so can release hazardous asbestos fibers into the air. The safest way to handle asbestos-containing materials is to have a professional remove or encapsulate them.

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.
