"They did a great job with the removal of the asbestos. They were professional and got it done very quickly. The only reason they didnt get the full 5 was because I had another contractor quote me at a low price and they said they would beat the price. They came out and started the work before they decided they wanted to raise the price. They went off of my word and the other companies estimate. Besides that, if you want the job done right these are certainly who you are looking for."

"Brent was so great to work with! He was straight forward and communicative, going into detail where he needed to, and turned out an incredibly thorough report that my wife and I plan to use as reference for many years to come. I can’t recommend Enviroquest enough to conduct your home inspection."

"Ryan, John, Jerry and all of the guys were amazing from start to finish! I needed my ceiling in my living room drywalled. I called A.R.C./G.E.S. less than two weeks from the time I needed someone to do the job for me. Jerry came out and inspected the job promptly, and they quickly put a quote together for me. I only gave them 5 days to complete the job, and they came through. I cannot express enough how happy I am with the work they did, and how quickly they got it done. I was on a very tight timeline for remodeling my living room, and they worked with me every step of the way. Jerry even came back at the end and cleaned up a lot of dirt that probably wasn’t even theirs. I will definitely be calling these guys again when I need some work done."

"The company installed a radon mitigation system in my house, reducing the level from 300 to .4. They obviously did superb work, and did it promptly at reasonable cost (much lower than the statewide company I got a quote from). Then afterward they provided outstanding customer service by promptly responding to my request to replace the original powerful fan with a quieter fan. Tuan obviously cared about my satisfaction as a customer. My experience is that this company is extremely competent, professional and trustworthy, and I give them my highest recommendation."

"Our family room is built on a concrete slab foundation. We've had water issues forever. We've had others try to figure out why & make suggestions. We hired a company previously that said they could fix it, helped some but still had some wetness after rains. We made a good decision to have David from Basement Waterproofing Solutions come take a look. He studied, he measured & he figured it out. We still check for wetness after a hard rain, we've done it for 20 years. The room has stayed dry for over a year & we are very thankful to David and his team!"

FAQs for asbestos testing projects in Harrisburg, PA

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.
