Types of Asbestos Sampling

Bulk Sampling

Bulk Sampling

Bulk sampling is a service where we carefully collect small samples of materials like drywall, insulation, or flooring to check if they contain asbestos.

Asbestos is a harmful material that was commonly used in older buildings. By testing these materials, we can help ensure your home or workplace is safe from asbestos-related health risks.

Air Sampling

Air Sampling Asbestos

Sampling for airborne asbestos involves testing the air in your home or workplace to see if there are tiny asbestos fibers floating around.

Prolonged exposure to asbestos can be dangerous. We use special equipment to collect air samples and check for any signs of asbestos.
