Residential Home Asbestos Testing
During the testing process, a certified asbestos inspector will take samples of suspect materials, such as insulation, floor tiles, or ceiling tiles, and send them to a laboratory for analysis. The lab will use specialized equipment to identify the presence and amount of asbestos fibers in the samples.
By having a professional asbestos inspection and testing, homeowners can identify any asbestos-containing materials in their homes and take appropriate action to manage or remove them to protect the health of themselves and their families. It's crucial to note that asbestos removal should only be done by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor, as improper removal can actually increase the risk of asbestos exposure.
To summarize, the main points of residential asbestos testing are:
- It involves sampling and analyzing materials in a home for the presence of asbestos.
- Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in construction materials prior to the 1980s.
- Exposure to asbestos fibers can cause serious health problems.
- A certified asbestos inspector will take samples of suspect materials and send them to a laboratory for analysis.
- Homeowners should consider having their homes tested for asbestos if their homes were built prior to the 1980s and contain building materials that may contain asbestos.
- Asbestos-containing materials that are in good condition and not disturbed are generally not a risk.
- By having a professional asbestos inspection and testing, homeowners can identify any asbestos-containing materials in their homes and take appropriate action to manage or remove them.

Test In Your Home So That You Know What To Expect!
Residential asbestos testing is a process that involves sampling and analyzing materials within a home for the presence of asbestos. Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in construction materials prior to the 1980s. Exposure to asbestos fibers can cause serious health problems, including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.
It's important for homeowners to consider having their homes tested for asbestos if their homes were built prior to the 1980s and contain building materials that may contain asbestos, such as insulation, floor tiles, or ceiling tiles. Asbestos-containing materials that are in good condition and not disturbed are generally not a risk, but if they become damaged or disturbed during renovations or repairs, asbestos fibers can become airborne and pose a health risk to those who breathe them in.
