Asbestos Testing
Gray's Environmental & Construction is a respected company in Albany, New York which preforms asbestos abatement and removal in New York State and Connecticut.
In order to understand the proportion of asbestos fibers that are in different building materials, a sample of the material needs to be collected. It is then examined extensively by the accredited laboratory. Once the results of the testing come in it is submitted to the inspector and is then sent in a consolidated report to the client we are testing for.
Stay Safe From Asbestos Exposure
If you suspect you have asbestos in your home or commercial building do not disturb the area. If left alone, asbestos does not normally pose health risks.
