It was actually mold spore testing. I hired Exceptional Restoration Services (on Angie) who botched a mold remediation job and contaminated my whole house - I am hypersensitive to mold. NextDay Inspect tested the house and quickly provided a very detailed report of their findings - necessary to...

Very honest inspector. When determined no mold, he provided guidelines to remove stains and repair a small leak in the shower. If I need similar testing in the future, I'll definitely call again. Didn't try to make the problem into something it wasn't and didn't insult my intelligence.

After the visual inspection, the technician told me there was definitely mold in the HVAC system and recommended we do the remediation. The cost: $1500. I decided on going ahead with the testing first just to be sure we had mold before spending that much money. The test was simple enough. The...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

While a professional can always help, there are some common plumbing culprits you can check yourself to see if you can find the sewer gas smell. For example, you should check your water traps, sometimes called P-traps and S-traps, which are located under sink, shower, and laundry drains. The wax ring beneath the base of your toilet, which creates a watertight seal with the plumbing, could also have gone bad.

Asbestos can be found in many building materials, especially if the materials were installed more than 20 years ago. Asbestos-containing materials (ACM) can include:

Acoustic ceiling tiles
Furnace insulation
Home appliances
Fire-retardant clothing
Cement pipe
Pipe insulation
Wall and ceiling insulation
Vehicle brake pads
Vinyl flooring
Sprayed acoustic ceilings
Stove insulation
Patching compounds
Textured paints
Roofing shingles
Siding

Professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to detect asbestos, radon, and VOCs.

Asbestos is absolutely cancerous. In fact, around 4% of all lung cancer cases are the result of asbestos exposure. This is why we recommend a full, professional removal and cleaning of any asbestos found in your home. If you are unsure whether there is any present, you should call a pro who will inspect your property.

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.
