Asbestos Testing
Spot dangerous asbestos before renovation or resale — protect occupants from liability and health risks
Many older homes (pre-1980s) contain asbestos in materials such as insulation, ceiling tiles, siding, floor tiles, plaster, or wallboard. As long as these materials are intact, asbestos does not present a risk — but once disturbed (e.g., during remodeling, demolition, or due to wear-and-tear), asbestos fibers can become airborne. Inhaling those fibers poses serious health risks, including long-term respiratory disease and cancer.
Because asbestos hazards are often hidden and cannot be identified visually, laboratory analysis of bulk samples is essential to confirm whether suspect materials actually contain asbestos.
