Asbestos looks like any other ceiling, tile or wrap, so the only real answer comes from a lab. We send an MDH-certified inspector to cut small samples from what your Blaine project will touch, and you receive a written report with a result for every material.
We test houses, townhomes and rentals across all three of our cities.
What testing covers
Inspection before demolition
MPCA requires an MDH-certified inspector to inspect every structure before demolition.
How the lab reports
Labs are NVLAP or AIHA accredited. More than 1 percent asbestos makes it asbestos-containing.
Homes built after October 1988
An architect or contractor letter saying no asbestos was used can replace the inspection.
When you need a survey
Minnesota has no blanket survey rule for home remodels. Three cases do need one.
A crew with employees
Employers must survey before workers remodel or demolish where asbestos may be present.
Commercial and public buildings
These need an asbestos inspection before renovation or demolition, at any age.
A demolition permit in Blaine
The city wants a licensed inspector’s survey before you apply.
