Why Asbestos Testing Matters in Chicago & Suburbs
Many homes and commercial buildings in Chicago and surrounding suburbs — especially those built before 1990 — still contain asbestos in materials like drywall, floor tiles, mastic, insulation, siding, and roofing.
If these materials are disturbed during remodeling, demolition, or repairs, asbestos fibers can be released into the air. Inhaling these fibers can cause serious health problems such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.
In Illinois, asbestos testing is often required before you can get renovation or demolition permits. Skipping it can lead to delays, fines, or costly work stoppages.
At Asbestos Testing & Inspection, we are licensed, certified, and 100% independent — we never perform asbestos removal, so our results are always unbiased. Get fast lab turnaround, accurate results, and the confidence to move forward safely.
