"Bob and his team were extremely responsive with our urgent need. His expertise was just what I needed to deal with an oil leak and broken asbestos tile. We are very grateful we found them."

"Jack and his crew were phenomenal. I cannot say enough good things. They did an outstanding job remediating/removing asbestos from our basement. Jack is reliable, professional, has tremendous expertise in the field and communicated with us at every step of the process. He also helped bring me back down to earth because I was so nervous about the asbestos. Truly above and beyond what I could have ever expected. We will certainly hire ACI-Tech again should we have any needs in the future."

"The asbestos testing was quite pricey. $400 for four test samples. Now I cannot say that this was due to the contractor since no other professional ever returned my calls and Atlas was the only price quote. It is possible that they would have been the cheapest, if I had anyone to compare them to. The representative was very friendly and explained everything in detail. Very thorough. I am sure that the lab tests were responsible for most of the cost, but the results were ready the next day."

"At first, I was a bit concerned because there was no on-site inspection prior to asbestos removal. In addition, I got conflicting multiple calls regarding the scheduling and cost of the abatement. However, the actual asbestos removal was done quickly and professionally, and the clean-up and safety testing was superb."

"Excellent work. John News was very responsive right from the start. He and his workers removed all the carpet and the asbestos floor tiles that were the culprit. They arrived on time and finished the work leaving me a clean room and a certificate indicating the air levels at completion. My daughter in law had rejected living there when she was informed by a carpet salesperson that under the carpet in the family room were asbestos tiles. Now the room is asbestos free and my family is moving in next week. Thanks so much to John News and Roe Services. I would use them or recommend to anyone who is in need of this service. ???"

"I could not be happier with this company. They did the work right away, even working on the weekends. They were very knowledgeable about what needed to be done and how to get the debris tested they have been very responsive. They have continued to be helpful to me in dealing with the company that left the silica dust in my home. You will not be disappointed if you use this company. I have never seen a company that is so attentive to your needs.

"If you’re looking to get any type of inspection or home services then look no further. I recently became a customer of Justin Ake after trying to get my soon to be home inspected. Rick was dispatched to the property and went above and beyond, both explaining the inspection process and showing me key points in the houses plumping and drainage systems. As well as providing information on other tests and services the company performs. I don’t normally write reviews, but I have to say this is one business that takes pride in their trade."

FAQs for asbestos testing projects in Newtown Square, 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.
