Awful experience is putting it lightly. Ann is exceptionally rude, Mike is a step above a conman. Gave us a reasonable verbal quote for new well pump and tank after ours unexpectedly sprung a leak. Written quote came back 60% higher, then on a subsequent phone call was raised yet another $1k. In...

The only thing I forgot to mention in the note above was how thorough this plumber was in checking, re-checking and testing of the various water connections on the property and in the house to specifically pinpoint the problem. Very impressive. <br />

The doctor and vet technician were excellent! They listened to the symptoms, asked additional questions, and did a thorough exam. I love that the rooms are "cat friendly" with lots of different levels for the cats to climb on, and the doctor brings in a really soft mat for to cat to lay on...

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

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.

Depending on the size of your home, the inspection process could take a few hours or a few days. While inspecting your home, the asbestos specialist will take small sections of the potentially contaminated material. They will then send the sample to an accredited laboratory or the local health department for testing.

The cost of asbestos testing depends on your location, the home's size, and the testing area's complexity. Plan to spend between $230 and $800 for testing. During testing and while handling potential asbestos, the specialist may wear protective gear, including gloves, overalls, appropriate footwear, and respiratory equipment.

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

Unfortunately, home inspections do not check for asbestos because of the liability factor involved. That’s why you should hire a trained professional with specialized equipment to test for it.

They will inspect all areas of the home and take samples of various materials to test. Opting for an asbestos inspection can prevent the risk of exposure to this hazardous material and save on costly repairs that may be required.

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.
