Though asbestos was once a common product in the construction industry, the health risks associated with the material have made asbestos testing and removal a priority for home and small business owners alike. At Astech in Bridgeport, CT, their technicians will help you through every step of the process, so you can rest assured that your home is asbestos-free. Their team wants to help you better understand what to expect during their testing process.

When you schedule the assessment, a trained asbestos removal professional will come to your home and test each room for the presence of asbestos. Since this material is incredibly harmful to your building’s indoor air quality and can threaten the health and well-being of anyone living in or using the space for long periods of time, it’s important that the inspector checks each room thoroughly.

Once the testing is finished, the inspector will provide you with information on the affected rooms and the concentration of asbestos in each space. This helps you determine the high-priority areas while indicating which spaces are safe for use prior to the removal process. The team at Astech will then help you determine the best method to get rid of the asbestos and give you a free estimate for professional removal.

After the asbestos testing process is complete, Astech will help you keep the unaffected rooms in your home safe from contamination during removal. Each affected room will be sealed off according to the protocols outlined by the Environmental Protection Agency, reducing your family’s risk of exposure. They’ll make sure the structure is completely free of asbestos before you and your family have full use of the space again.

At Astech, your safety is their priority. Whether you’re concerned about possible exposure or wish to schedule an asbestos testing appointment before you begin a home renovations project, their technicians are ready to help. Call (203) 335-0502 today to schedule an appointment.
