"I contacted Jeff Brewer at A B Control to ask about the process and cost for removing linoleum flooring in my kitchen (in case it had asbestos). He was extremely informative and helpful and suggested that I could take a floor sample myself (rather than hiring him to do it) and take it to CEI Labs to have tested. He provided meticulous instructions for how to do it. Once I had the flooring tested I talked to Jeff again and A B Control gave me a fair estimate for the work but also told me exactly how I would go about doing it myself if I chose to do so. Since I am on a budget, I decided to do the work myself. I even called a third time to go over instructions again (months later when I was closer to doing the work) and Jeff once again patiently advised me. If finances were not an issue, I would not hesitate to hire A B Control to do this job for me. Trustworthy, responsive, honest."

"EMR services assisted me in every way possible. Was planning a renovation in an old house before we moved in and had asbestos testing done through them. When the test came back positive a day before I was to start the renovation, they pulled an emergency permit and had the asbestos removed and 3rd party inspected by 3 p.m. the next day. I didn't lose a day of work. They were there for any questions, were incredibly thorough, sent pictures of the final products, and communicated clearly and effectively throughout the entire process. I would recommend EMR Services to anybody. They were wonderful to work with."

"We were very happy with the home inspection. We added termite and radon testing to the standard pre-purchase inspection. Jeff was easy to work with and nice to talk to on the phone. I like that he's the owner. The inspection was thorough and the report was easy to read and full of detailed pictures and notes. I liked the use of technology including use of a drone to inspect the roof and of a FLIR camera to provide heat maps of AC vents, stove, furnace, etc. Would recommend Jeff's company if you need a home inspection."

"LRC was very professional and very responsive. Additionally, given my short timeframe for the due diligence inspection. Not only were they extremely timely but they worked very well for me under a time crunch. I received a full report of their findings along with the testing results in order to proceed with the proper corrective measures. <br />"

FAQs for asbestos testing projects in Greensboro, NC

Asbestos appears as long, thin, or curled mineral fibers that are not visible to the naked eye under normal conditions. Homes constructed before 1989 are more likely to contain this material, so a professional inspection is essential. Because asbestos identification requires specialized techniques, having a certified inspector assess your property is the safest way to confirm its presence and protect your family’s health.

Free asbestos testing services do not exist. You can purchase testing kits online for $30 per unit, and these kits include lab fees, return shipping, consultation, sampling media, and the final results. The results from a kit are less detailed and accurate than those provided by a certified asbestos testing professional. Since collecting a sample exposes you to harmful fibers, hiring a professional is essential to ensure safety and accurate testing.

Receiving asbestos test results takes one to seven days, but different labs offer varying turnaround times. When expedited processing is arranged, the laboratory completes analysis within 24 hours; standard processing requires up to two weeks. Hiring a certified professional ensures that all samples are collected correctly and results are provided without delay, safeguarding your home throughout the process.

Home insurance doesn't often cover asbestos testing and removal. Many policies have a clause called a "pollution exclusion," which means they do not cover indoor pollutants like asbestos. However, your insurance company might cover something like asbestos siding removal costs if it is released due to things beyond your control, such as storm damage.

If a DIY project or accident in your home releases harmful fibers, you must pay for the test and removal.

Yes, you can legally inspect and remove asbestos in your house as long as it's a single-family home and not a multi-family unit. However, the EPA strongly recommends hiring an asbestos abatement pro since testing can be dangerous.

Pros have all the right tools and safety equipment, and you risk breathing in the fibers by taking samples yourself. They also know how to collect samples and safely dispose of materials properly.

Asbestos encapsulation is a process that seals asbestos-containing materials with a protective barrier to prevent the release of harmful fibers. It serves as an alternative to complete removal when full abatement is not necessary. Encapsulation costs between $2 and $6 per square foot, offering a cost-effective option that contains asbestos safely when applied by a certified professional.
