Why Asbestos Testing Matters in Oak Park

Oak Park is known for its beautiful historic homes, older apartment buildings, and architectural charm — but many of those same properties were built long before asbestos bans were in place.

Common asbestos-containing materials we find in Oak Park homes include:

  • Joint compound and drywall texture

  • Plaster and lath walls

  • 9x9 or 12x12 vinyl floor tiles and mastic

  • Popcorn ceilings

  • Insulation around heating systems and boilers

  • Cement siding and roof shingles

Even small remodels — like removing tile or sanding drywall — can release asbestos fibers into the air. That’s why professional asbestos testing is not only smart but often required by law before renovation or demolition permits are issued.
