Leave suspect material in place for the technician. We collect the agreed samples for laboratory analysis.

Results apply to the materials sampled. Let us know about any contractor or building-management requirements before the visit.

Separate unit work from the wider property

For a Baltimore County project in Towson, Catonsville, Dundalk, Essex or another community, list the rooms and materials your contractor will change. A townhouse wall, basement floor and apartment ceiling can require different permissions and sample locations.

Confirm the full county address and access contact before arranging the visit. For a property with several units or additions, identify every requested area and share previous reports that may cover part of the work.

More than one unit

List every unit or floor you want included and which materials are shared. A sample inside one apartment is not a finding for all apartments in the building.

Finished lower levels

Describe flooring, ceiling and wall finishes affected by the basement project. Include utility areas or a separate entrance when they are part of the work being planned.

Original rooms and additions

Separate the original building from later additions in your project description. Even when finishes look alike, different installation histories can change which materials need consideration.

Planning asbestos testing in Baltimore County

  • Towson and Catonsville

    Coordinate keys and permission for each requested unit. Note differences in renovation history or finishes so the team can discuss a suitable sampling plan.

  • Dundalk and Essex

    Give the access route and list rooms with different finishes. Share records of earlier basement updates rather than assuming all materials were installed together.

  • Owings Mills and Reisterstown

    Mark the rooms in each construction phase on your renovation plan. Include any earlier reports and note exactly which areas those reports covered.

NextDay Inspect tests building materials for asbestos. We do not provide asbestos air testing or abatement. If a sample is positive, the report helps you discuss management or removal with a qualified asbestos professional.

Leave suspect materials in place

Please do not cut, scrape or collect your own sample. Arrange access and share your project details before the visit. A photograph or the age of a home cannot establish whether a material contains asbestos.
