I'm so, so glad I came across this company. I can't say enough good things from the very first call, to the actual indoor fungal assessment conducted and explained to me by Alexandria. I'd absolutely recommend to anyone who has any suspicion of mold issues or water event.

We decided to get AirMD to do a mold inspection and glad we did! Christian is an excellent technician and pointed out spots that were suspect. He took the time to explain to us his procedure and how we can fix the situation in the future. Hurricane Ian left his mark in the form of water spots on our ceiling, mold on the attic side.
Professional Asbestos Testing Services in San Diego, CA
San Diego's diverse building stock, from historic Craftsman homes in Hillcrest to mid-century developments in La Jolla and modern high-rises downtown, requires professional asbestos testing before any renovation or demolition project. California's strict asbestos regulations, enforced by Cal/OSHA and the Air Pollution Control District, mandate testing regardless of building age, as imported materials can contain asbestos even in newer construction. Our certified consultants provide comprehensive material surveys and laboratory analysis, ensuring your Balboa Park-area bungalow or Mission Valley commercial property meets all state and federal compliance requirements. Exposure to asbestos fibers causes mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis - diseases that develop decades later but are completely preventable with proper testing. Contact AirMD today for professional asbestos testing that protects your family and ensures legal compliance throughout San Diego County.
Why San Diego Properties Need Asbestos Testing
San Diego's Mediterranean climate and coastal location have preserved many pre-1980 buildings containing asbestos materials, from the historic Gaslamp Quarter to suburban neighborhoods in Clairemont and Scripps Ranch. The city's building boom from the 1940s-1970s coincided with peak asbestos use in construction materials, making professional testing essential before disturbing walls, ceilings, or flooring. California Environmental Protection Agency regulations require mandatory testing for commercial and residential projects, with severe penalties for non-compliance including business license suspension and personal liability exposure. San Diego County's Air Pollution Control District actively enforces these requirements, conducting inspections and issuing citations for unauthorized asbestos disturbance. Whether you're renovating a Victorian in Old Town or a ranch home in Tierrasanta, professional testing protects against legal consequences and health risks. Schedule your certified asbestos assessment with AirMD before starting any renovation project.

Protecting San Diego Families and Workers from Asbestos Exposure
Professional asbestos testing protects San Diego families and workers from devastating health consequences including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis - diseases that can remain dormant for decades before becoming fatal. DIY testing or unauthorized material disturbance releases dangerous fibers into your home's air, creating long-term exposure risks for everyone inside. California's strict liability laws hold property owners responsible for asbestos exposure, resulting in substantial personal injury lawsuits and insurance coverage denial. Our certified consultants use proper containment and sampling procedures, ensuring accurate results without contaminating your property or endangering occupants. Professional testing provides the documentation needed for safe renovation planning and regulatory compliance, protecting your investment and your family's health. Don't gamble with your family's future or face potential legal liability - the cost of professional testing is minimal compared to the devastating consequences of asbestos exposure. Contact AirMD immediately for certified asbestos testing that ensures your San Diego property is safe.

Frequently Asked Questions About Asbestos Testing
Federal, state, and county regulations require professional asbestos testing before disturbing any building materials, regardless of building age. This applies to all renovation, demolition, or restoration projects completed in institutional, commercial, public, industrial, and residential buildings containing 4 units or more. The EPA’s National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) mandates testing before any work that could disturb materials. Property owners, contractors, condo associations, and property managers who skip required testing face substantial monetary penalties and potential jail time. Even newer buildings may contain asbestos from imported materials, making professional testing essential for legal compliance and safety.
Professional asbestos testing is a fraction of the cost compared to legal penalties and liability exposure. While testing typically costs hundreds of dollars, violations can result in fines ranging from $25,000 to $75,000 per day, plus potential criminal charges. Insurance companies may also deny claims for improper handling, leaving property owners liable for complete remediation costs that can reach tens of thousands of dollars. For contractors and property managers, violations can result in license suspension, business closure, and personal liability. The small upfront investment in proper testing protects against devastating financial and legal consequences.
