So far the 2 experiences I have had with this company have been very good - septic pumping last summer and a plumbing leak disaster in my underground fresh water pipes after the freeze - 8 leaks!!! They have always come out super fast. The guys are courteous, communicative, and get the job done!...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

Most manufacturers stopped putting asbestos in linoleum before 1980 due to public concerns about its toxicity. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn’t ban asbestos-containing products until 1989, and a comprehensive ban was not announced until 2024. This means that homes built after 1989 may still have asbestos in their flooring.

Costs depend on property size, test types, and additional services like mold sampling.

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

Asbestos fibers can stay airborne for 48 to 72 hours, depending on the home's ventilation. Fibers can linger longer in enclosed spaces with poor airflow. Because the fibers are microscopic, they can easily remain suspended, making them difficult to detect without professional equipment.

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.
