What Happens When Asbestos or Lead Is Found During Inspection?
Homes built before 1980 commonly contain asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in popcorn ceilings, pipe insulation, floor tiles, and siding. Lead paint is found in homes built before 1978. When a home inspector flags these materials, the buyer's lender may require professional abatement before approving the mortgage. FHA and VA loans have strict requirements around hazardous materials. FailedInspectionFix.com connects you with state-licensed abatement contractors who follow EPA NESHAP regulations and provide clearance air testing results.
