Top Asbestos Testing Nearby Ashburn

Mr. Ramsey was very professional. Like most people, I knew very little about asbestos, he took his time to explain things.

We used Geller Environmental Labs for a residential asbestos inspection and associated sampling in D.C. in 2019. They were very prompt, professional, and very knowledgeable, and I would highly recommend them.

We were having our kitchen re-tiled and the ceramic tile was being pulled out and found to be glued down to some vinyl sheet flooring which had a fibrous backing.  Called Geller to ask about the need for testing and he had concerns it could be asbestos tile based on my description.  It was an urgent situation since 3/4 of the floor had already been pulled up and if it had contained asbestos would have been a major issue.  Jack Geller immediately got off the phone, came over and got samples and hurried back to the lab to get them submitted so we'd have an answer the next day.  We didn't stay in the house while we waited, and were very anxious about it.  Jack called me as soon as he had the results the next day, which luckily were negative. Jack was extremely responsive and got us the answer so we had minimal disruption to the work and our lives.  He was great and I would highly recommend him.  Also answered some questions of mine on the need for lead paint testing over the phone (we have not moved forward with lead testing at this point, but if we decide to I would definitely use Geller Environmental).

Our experience with Geller Env. Labs was very professional and pleasant. The team member who came to take samples of our floor was professional and friendly. The asbestos report arrived via email very quickly.. within 24 hours of the test. Once the asbestos was abated by a different company, Geller Env. Labs came out to perform an air quality test. Again, the team member was extremely professional and friendly. That report was also sent to us the very next day (within 24 hours). Thank you!

Once we closed on the house, Jack and his team came out to do both sample testing and air quality testing. The process was quick and easy, and we had results for the air quality the next day, and a sample testing in two business days. The process couldn't have been easier or more pleasant.

Gellar Environmental Labs provided the hard information and analysis my family needed to move forward after a series of stressful issues befell our home and lives in south Arlington - but perhaps more importantly, the people there delivered it with care, patience and a real human touch. The extra time Jack spent over the phone from the time I first called until the testing was completed made a real difference in putting our fears in perspective and ultimately, allaying them. Jack's employees similarly took the extra time necessary to answer all questions with detail and kindness. As stressful as the overall experience was for us (which started with water leaking into our basement after a contractor error and eventually lead to air sampling tests for mold and asbestos), it ended with our basement - and our peace of mind - restored, thanks in large part to Geller Environmental.

Tests were negative.  The technicians were superb, but unfortunately getting asbestos removed right requires substantial labor, so the prices were surprisingly high.  But I'm convinced they would have been very thorough had we proved to need them.

I was very pleased from the first conversation. The provider explained everything very clearly and was able to do a site visit to obtain samples  within two days.  I received the results very quickly.  I have to say dealing with this business has been the easiest part of the whole project so far. They were very professional.

Punctual and gave us great advice without trying to sell us on additional services that were not needed.  would highly recommend them.

While renovating Kitchen, a contractor provided the name of Geller Environmental Labs for asbestos testing. They were located locally and if I were to drop off the sample with check, they could get the results in a day or two. Before droping the samples we called and asked questions about asbestos and the they were very helpful in providing us information regarding asbestos. After two days, we did receive the report through email and while the tiles tested positive for asbestos, we were very happy with our experience with Geller.

My home was tested for both lead paint and asbestos and both technicians were excellent.  They seemed to know where to find it before the tests were even done!  I highly recommend this company.

I started pulling up tile and afterwards thought it might be asbestos. I had to get it tested and any mail-in kit takes a week to arrive, and then two weeks to get results. ACM said that they could do the testing and have lab results within 48 hours. So I took off work, sped to Rockville in order to get my sample in their offices by their 4pm closing time. I arrived at 3.55 and I was told that the UPS guy had already left. annoying. A day and a half later, I called to see if the lab results had come in and a guy with a southern accent said that he expected them later that day. I asked him if he could give an estimate for how much it would cost to remove 600 sq feet of asbestos and he gave me a rough estimate. But when I did not hear from him in a few hours, I called back and the receptionist said that the lab results would not be in and I had to wait until Monday. I spent the weekend obsessing over asbestos and if I was going to die a slow painful death of lung cancer. I called ACM on Monday just before lunch. The receptionist had to check with the lab, and called me back 20 minutes later to give me the results. That was on Monday. It is Friday and I still do not have the lab report despite ACM having my email on file.

They were on time and did the testing in a timely manner. They also did my initial asbestos testing to see if I had asbestos in the house. That was a separate cost.

Pat showed up at the time he said he would and thoroughly checked our new house for lead and asbestos.  He came the day after I called.

After a flood we discovered old tile in the basement.  They did the testing to see if it was asbestos and needed special removal.

I have asbestos floor tiles in my basement, some of which are broken, and I was concerned about the air quality. Jack Geller quickly dispatched an employee to test the air, and I received lab results the following day. While I did not not have an airborne asbestos issue, they recommended that I get the tiles removed within the next year or so. (They do not do the remediation work themselves - only the testing.) Jack Geller was thorough, prompt, patient, and professional in answering all my questions. In fact, when I had a follow-up question on the weekend, he called me back a few hours later on a Sunday. I plan to use this company for post-abatement testing.

The technician was very nice and professional in performing the test. He later explained the test results and explained the level of mold found in the property. He also told me that the high level of mold that was in the basement did not come back in four days. It happened over a period of time.

After we found potential asbestos tile during our family room renovation we contacted Geller Environmental.  Spoke with Jack Geller who was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. Inevitably we had Geller Environ. do testing on our tiles, as well as on the plaster in our walls (which could also have asbestos - luckily, ours did not).  The tests were done by Pat and Paul - who came to our house to take samples. During their visit to our house, they spent a great deal of time walking around the house to check for other potential locations of asbestos, and were accommodating in terms of answering all our questions. Likewise, they were especially great about getting back to us as soon as the tests results were available (knowing that we were biting our nails waiting to hear), and spent time explaining the results in laymens terms. We eventually used a remediation firm to remediate the asbestos tile (Geller Environ doesn't do the actual remediation) and because we enjoyed working with Jack and his crew so much, we hired them to do the air quality tests after remediation (i.e., to give the all clear).  Once again, they were responsive to our needs,  and very friendly. Overall, they were a pleasure to work with and would recommend them to anyone.

The project went well. The removal of the tiles was done prior to remodeling a basement. Air quality was monitored. This is a pricey but necessary job.

All went extremely well - they arrived on time, acted in a professional manner, sealed the area for treatment and completed the job: preparation, treatment, testing, and clean-up in about 8 hours. Larry Brand was on site with a team of experienced workers. I was well-informed throughout the process. I received a written report 3 days later. Pleased with the outcome.
