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 Evanston, IL
Evanston property owners planning renovations or demolitions must comply with strict Illinois EPA and Cook County regulations requiring professional asbestos testing before disturbing building materials. Many of Evanston's historic homes and commercial buildings, particularly those built before 1980, contain asbestos-containing materials that pose serious health risks when disturbed. Even newer construction may contain imported materials with asbestos. Our certified consultants provide comprehensive testing services that protect your family and workers while ensuring full compliance with federal, state, and local regulations. Professional testing prevents exposure to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis-causing fibers while providing the documentation needed for permits and contractor requirements. Contact AirMD today for safe, compliant asbestos testing in Evanston.
Why Evanston Properties Need Asbestos Testing
Evanston's diverse housing stock, from vintage lakefront homes to mid-century apartment buildings and modern Northwestern University facilities, presents unique asbestos risks that require professional assessment. Cook County's proximity to Lake Michigan creates humidity conditions that can deteriorate asbestos-containing materials over time, increasing fiber release potential. Illinois regulations mandate testing before any renovation or demolition work, with severe penalties for non-compliance including fines up to $25,000 per day and potential criminal charges. Many Evanston properties contain original flooring, insulation, and siding materials that commonly included asbestos through the 1980s. Professional testing protects against liability exposure while ensuring your project meets all regulatory requirements. Don't risk your family's health or face legal consequences - schedule professional asbestos testing today.

Protecting Evanston Families and Workers from Asbestos Exposure
Professional asbestos testing is essential for protecting Evanston residents and workers from deadly asbestos-related diseases including lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. These diseases can remain dormant for decades before symptoms appear, making prevention through proper testing absolutely critical. DIY testing attempts often disturb materials and release dangerous fibers throughout your property, creating widespread contamination that endangers everyone present. Our certified professionals use specialized containment procedures and protective equipment to safely collect samples without compromising indoor air quality or exposing occupants to health risks. The long-term health consequences of asbestos exposure far outweigh testing costs, and Illinois law holds property owners liable for exposure incidents. Don't gamble with your family's health or face potential lawsuits from exposure incidents. Contact AirMD immediately for professional asbestos testing that ensures safety and compliance.

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.
