Asbestos testing can tell you the facts, so you can move forward.
It hasn’t been that long since the risks associated with asbestos were revealed, and many homes today still have asbestos-containing materials—in popcorn ceilings, floor tiles, drywall, pipe insulation wrappings, and more. When disturbed, asbestos can become airborne, and breathing in the fibers could lead to serious diseases down the line, such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. It’s extremely important, then, to remove asbestos from your home if it has been disturbed. First, you need to confirm it’s present by scheduling asbestos testing.
Asbestos testing is recommended when you come across damaged tiles, insulation, popcorn ceilings, or other materials that are commonly known to have asbestos in them, especially if your home was built before 1985. A professional will conduct a visual inspection and collect samples to be examined in a lab for testing. If the test identifies asbestos, you’ll need to have it removed right away for your household’s safety.
