What Is Involved in the Asbestos Testing Process?
We follow a comprehensive process when conducting asbestos testing in San Francisco and elsewhere in Northern California.
Preparation and Research
Our team undertakes an extensive research and preparation process where they look for details about:
- The building’s age and the common materials used in that time frame.
- Any previous construction and revamp projects.
- Listed construction materials and documentation.
They then use this information to create a detailed inspection plan that lists asbestos-contaminated materials (ACMs) to look for in the building.
Visual Inspection
Next comes the asbestos inspection process. The inspection plan allows us to conduct a detailed inspection of all the facility’s spaces to look for possible ACMs. Depending on the age of the building, these elements may include:
- Ceiling panels
- Insulation materials
- Flooring
- Vinyl tiles
- Cement
Sampling Materials
Upon completing their visual inspection, our team will take samples of any suspected or possible ACMs. They label them carefully and record additional information about the material location and other details. At this point, we send all the samples to an asbestos testing lab in Northern California.
Certified Asbestos Testing Labs in San Francisco, Sacramento and San Jose
Since we perform asbestos testing in Sacramento, San Jose, San Francisco and other parts of Northern California, we work with excellent labs throughout the region. They take the material samples and conduct comprehensive testing to determine whether asbestos is present.
If they discover asbestos, we’ll create a detailed report listing the ACMs present, their location and how best to manage them. We’ll also assist you with notifying the right government organizations and work with you to create a plan for safely removing the asbestos.
While A-Tech doesn’t perform asbestos abatement, we can monitor the process to ensure that your chosen abatement professionals follow safety and legal compliance protocols.
