Asbestos Testing & Inspection Services in Massachusetts
If your property was built before 1980, there’s a strong possibility it contains asbestos in the insulation, siding, tiles, joint compound, window glazing, furnace, or pipe coverings. Before any demolition, renovation, or energy-efficiency upgrade, you’ll need to determine if asbestos is present
At Femme Works Solutions LLC, we provide certified asbestos testing and inspection services across Massachusetts. Whether you’re a homeowner, property manager, or contractor, we’ll assess your building, collect samples, and deliver fast, reliable results you can trust.
When Should You Get Your Property Tested?
You should schedule asbestos testing if:
- Your building was constructed before 1980
- You’re planning to renovate or demolish part of your home
- You notice crumbling insulation, tiles, or siding
- You need clearance for a Mass Save energy-efficiency upgrade
- You’re buying or selling an older home
Don’t take chances. Identifying asbestos early prevents health risks, delays, and legal issues.
What Materials Are Commonly Inspected?
Our inspectors evaluate a range of common asbestos-containing materials, including:
- Pipe insulation and elbow wrap
- Vermiculite insulation in attic, walls, and basement
- Vinyl floor tiles and mastic
- Joint compound
- Asbestos cement siding and shingles
- Textured ceilings and joint compounds
- Roofing felt and old flashing
We inspect both visible and hidden materials and take careful samples for lab analysis.
Our Certified Testing and Lab Process
Femme Works Solutions LLC follows a meticulous, certified testing process:
- Site Visit & Visual Assessment: Our team inspects the building and identifies suspect materials.
- Sample Collection: We take small, targeted samples to not cause damaga or disrupt existing conditions.
- Lab Submission: Samples are sent to accredited laboratories for polarized light microscopy (PLM) or TEM testing.
- Results & Reporting: We provide a clear report within a few days, with photos, material analysis, and recommendations.
Our goal is to give you accurate information so you can move forward with confidence.
Pre-Renovation, Pre-Sale & Mass Save Assessments
We offer asbestos testing for:
- Pre-renovation planning: Avoid unexpected delays in your project and mitigate fines.
- Home sales or purchases: Know what you’re inheriting or selling.
- Mass Save projects: Many insulation or HVAC upgrades require proof of asbestos clearance before work can begin.
We’ll coordinate with your contractor or energy auditor as needed and provide all the required documentation.
What Happens If Asbestos Is Found?
If the collection and testing of samples identifies the presence of asbestos,, don’t worry—we’re here to help and will recommend a reliable company that can safely and efficiently remove the asbestos from your home or commercial property. Femme Works Solutions LLC will recommend:
- Asbestos abatement
- Containment and decontamination
- Safe removal and certified disposal
Per Massachusetts regulations, the company testing for presence of asbestos SHOULD NOT be the same company performing the asbestos abatement or remediation services.
