Do You Suspect Asbestos?
Testing for Asbestos Remediation
Asbestos is a hazardous material that requires immediate attention when suspected. Our Colorado state-certified inspectors provide expert asbestos testing to determine whether your property is at risk or in need of remediation.
Asbestos Sample Analysis
We’re happy to come to you anywhere in Colorado to collect samples of materials that may contain asbestos, such as ceiling tiles, floor tiles, popcorn ceilings, drywall, and insulation. Each sample is carefully taken and sent to a certified lab for thorough analysis.
Asbestos Spill Delineation
When structural materials are disturbed or damaged and found to contain asbestos, it’s critical to determine how far asbestos-containing dust has spread. This dust poses a serious health hazard and requires immediate attention.
Asbestos Clearance Testing
If asbestos has been identified and removed—through a process known as asbestos abatement or remediation—a clearance test is conducted to ensure no residual asbestos fibers remain, confirming the space is safe for re-occupancy.

Why Do We Inspect Properties for Likely Asbestos?
IET offers asbestos inspections to see if materials are likely to contain asbestos.
We offer different types of asbestos testing, if necessary, depending on your circumstance. Call for a free phone consultation if you suspect asbestos and you are planning a remodel.
Disturbing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) during renovations can release hazardous fibers, endangering workers and occupants with the risk of serious illnesses like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. The treatment for these preventable conditions can amount to hundreds of thousands of dollars per individual, with devastating financial and health impacts.
Health & Safety
- Prevent exposure: Testing ensures that asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are identified and handled safely before any disturbance occurs.
- Reduce health risks: Protect workers and occupants from exposure to asbestos fibers, which can cause serious illnesses like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis.
- Create safer spaces: Confirm that renovated or remediated areas are free of hazardous fibers, making them safe to reoccupy.
- Avoid surprise expenses: Testing helps you plan for remediation if necessary, eliminating costly mid-project disruptions.
- Regulatory Compliance: Local, state, and federal regulations, like those enforced by the EPA and OSHA, require inspections to identify asbestos before disturbing materials. Compliance helps avoid costly fines and legal issues.
