Protect Your Health & Home with Professional Asbestos Testing
If your home or building was constructed before the 1980s, there’s a good chance it may contain asbestos—a hidden health hazard. At Eco Mold Testing, we specialize in professional asbestos testing to help homeowners, landlords, and property managers stay safe and compliant.
What Is Asbestos and Where Is It Found?
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral once widely used in construction due to its resistance to heat, fire, and chemicals. Unfortunately, it's now known to be highly toxic when its fibers are inhaled.
You might find asbestos in:
- Popcorn ceilings
- Floor tiles
- Insulation materials
- Roof shingles and siding
- Pipe insulation and HVAC ducts
- Cement sheets and drywall joint compounds
Any disturbance—renovation, demolition, or natural wear—can release microscopic asbestos fibers into the air.
Symptoms of Asbestos Exposure
Asbestos-related illnesses often take years to develop, making early testing essential. Common symptoms include:
- Persistent dry cough
- Chest pain or tightness
- Shortness of breath
- Weight loss and fatigue
- Crackling sound when breathing
Prolonged exposure may lead to asbestosis, lung cancer, or mesothelioma, a rare and aggressive cancer linked directly to asbestos.
Why You Need Asbestos Testing for Older Homes
If your home was built before 1985, it’s highly recommended to have it inspected, especially before any remodeling, repairs, or demolition. Even homes built through the early 1990s may still contain legacy asbestos materials.
Testing for asbestos helps you:
- Ensure a safe environment for your family or tenants
- Avoid costly contamination during home improvement
- Meet disclosure or inspection requirements during a sale or purchase
- Remain compliant with local and federal regulations
