Asbestos Testing Burbank IL – Certified Inspectors
312-972-2321
Burbank homes built between the 1950s and late 1970s are some of the most asbestos-dense in the southwest suburbs. Vinyl tile, mastic adhesive, drywall compound, popcorn ceilings, and insulation were all manufactured with asbestos during those decades — and much of it is still present beneath newer renovations.
We provide licensed asbestos testing in Burbank, IL with certified bulk sampling, accredited PLM lab analysis, and written PDF reports used for remodeling, basement finishing, demolition prep, and real estate transactions.
No remediation.
No scare tactics.
Just accurate results — fast.

Why Burbank Has High Asbestos Presence
Burbank construction surged post-WWII through the late 1970s — peak asbestos usage years.
Even when homes look updated, older layers often remain underneath.
We commonly find asbestos in:
9x9 and 12x12 vinyl floor tile
Black mastic adhesive under flooring
Popcorn ceiling & textured coatings
Drywall compound + skim coats
Sheet vinyl in kitchens & bathrooms
Basement ceiling tile & glue-ups
Pipe wrap & boiler insulation
Attic vermiculite insulation
Most problems appear only after flooring or drywall is removed.
Testing first prevents a stop-work order halfway through a renovation.
When Homeowners in Burbank Call Us
Typical testing triggers include:
Replacing tile, laminate, carpet or LVP
Scraping/grinding old mastic adhesive
Basement finishing or full remodels

A $375 inspection could prevent a $10K-$20K abatement setback later.
