Testing
For Asbestos
Know the Facts
The term "asbestos" gets thrown around frequently these days, but what does it mean? Asbestos is an organic mineral that can cause serious illnesses, such as lung cancer and mesothelioma. It was once used in building insulation, clothing, and construction materials until health risks were discovered. When you're buying a home or making renovations on your property, be sure to ask about the presence of asbestos before making any final decisions. If you suspect that your house has been contaminated with asbestos, hire 1st-Rate Inspections to test for it.
Asbestos In Your Home
Asbestos has been banned from most residential construction materials since the 1970s, but it still remains in some of them. It can be found in wall and attic insulation, siding and roofing materials, heat-resistant fabrics, patching compounds, and textured paint. The presence of asbestos in homes can be dangerous for people who are exposed to it without knowing its risks. There are several ways to remove asbestos from homes and make them safe for people living there. Vinyl flooring is the most common product containing asbestos because it was commonly used for floor tiles before the ban on asbestos in residential construction products was enacted.
Asbestos Health Risks
Homeowners are advised not to disturb asbestos insulation and other building materials that may contain asbestos. Some of the common symptoms of exposure to asbestos include:
- lung disease
- cancer
- asbestosis
- mesothelioma

Meth Facts
Meth In Homes
Meth is a highly addictive drug that causes serious damage to the user’s body and mind. Meth is most often found in homes as it can be smoked, injected, or snorted.
