For 27 years, Asbesto-Test, Inc. has provided experienced consulting, Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA) surveys and inspections, asbestos sampling and asbestos analysis. But we can take care of more than just asbestos testing for you! We are also EPA certified for lead paint testing. We can provide help with Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) testing as well.
This comes in handy often, as it is required in some demolition projects. Our inspectors are all AHERA certified asbestos building inspectors. Our laboratory is American Industrial Hygiene Association (AIHA) proficient in the Bulk Asbestors Proficiency Analytical Testing Program, which is an approved testing program.

Services
Mileage and ferry fees (if applicable) may be charged for Island, Whatcom, and other outlying areas. Personal consulting and arrangements for any rushed services are always available and corresponding fees will be arranged. A certificate of professional liability (for $2,000,000 naming your firm as an additional insured) is available upon request with any additional tax information you require.
Often times, we get calls from people who don't understand or question the reasons as to why they need an asbestos survey prior to demolition or renovation. Some people get upset they have to jump through the hoops, while others are more than happy to comply with regulation. Perhaps the most frequent complaint we get is, What difference does it make?
A: Yes, and no, but mostly no. The short of it is this. Polarized Light Microscopy (or PLM for short) can not tell you if your vermiculite DOESN'T contain asbestos. The reason being that there are entirely too many nooks and cranny's in the stuff for asbestos fibers to hide. It's akin to trying to catch minnows with a shark net.

Very bad.
1. not the cheapest at $40/test
2. consultants self appoint as policing agents. With absolutely no request from my side to speak to LNI, woman whose name starts with A said she would have an LNI rep contact me (and they did!), that I shouldn't get my information from YouTube, that I have to take this seriously.
I wanted an independent test so I could start thinking it through myself, and instead I got the government.
This place is intrusive and does more than test. They police in the most unpleasant fashion.
On the other hand if you want quick turnaround, you will get it here

I recently used Asbesto Test for a couple of samples from my home and I would highly recommend! They have an operating service that quickly connects you with a consultant, even on the weekends!
We dropped our samples at their drop box outside of Clearview. The drop box is clearly marked and easy to find. Our consultant called us within 48 hours with the results as well as recommendations on how to proceed.
If you're in the north King County area this is a great and easy hassle free place for Asbestos Testing.

I have used them twice with an incredible turn-around time compared to the others that I looked into. They called me to tell me the results and sent a certificate copy in the mail. I'm thankful that they called and I didn't have to wait before we were doing a floor demolition the following weekend.
I also like the fact that they are local to Snohomish County and their customer service is superb. I will be using them for all future asbestos testing.
