I had some suspicious-looking tape on my furnace's ductwork that I had been told might be asbestos…read moretape. Although it was mostly intact, there were a few places where it had gotten torn and had some pieces hanging down. I contacted Lyle Environmental after reading good reviews about them online. They gave me thorough instructions on how to safely collect a sample of the tape so they could test it to determine if it was indeed asbestos tape. After I dropped off the sample they tested it and got back to me very quickly with the results: unfortunately, it was definitely asbestos tape. They described my options: removal, encapsulation, or doing nothing, and told me they could send someone to look at the ductwork and prepare a bid if I decided on either of the first two options. After I contacted Lyle and told them I'd like to have them deal with the tape, a representative came to my home and looked over the ductwork. He recommended removal of the tape where it was torn and encapsulation with a product called LagKloth where the tape was still intact. Lyle's bid for doing this work seemed quite reasonable so I made an appointment for the work to be done. The crew showed up on time the morning of the appointment, got straight to work, and completed the job within a few hours. My experience with Lyle was overwhelmingly positive. Every person I dealt with, from the office manager who took my initial call, to the person who looked at the ducts and prepared the bid, to the crew who did the asbestos remediation, was courteous, professional and conscientious. They answered all my questions and did the job for a reasonable price. They completed the lab work and got me on their schedule quickly. Moreover, several months after the work was completed, I noticed the LagKloth had become detached from the ducts in some areas. These areas are made of wood and had been painted years ago with what is most likely a lead-based paint, which Lyle thought is probably why the LagKloth had loosened from them. Lyle sent a technician out who fixed the problem at no extra cost. Lyle Environmental does good work and stands behind it--I highly recommend them!

First of all, we were on a very tight schedule and needed to get our inspection done quickly. The inspector, Josh, came in on a Sunday afternoon and did a very thorough inspection. He talked to me throughout so I always knew what he was doing and why he was doing it. He also gave me a lot of recommendations for things to make our condo more user-friendly. He answered all of my questions and explained things to me in a way that I could understand with my very limited knowledge of all things related to the construction and inner-workings of a home. We had blocked out a time for roughly four hours but because our condo was pretty small, it didn't take Josh that long. In light of this, Josh readjusted the price so I ended up paying less than I expected. He also explained other available services but was very upfront with me about them not being necessary for my particular unit in an effort to save me money and not waste any of my time. I really appreciate that this is a company who is honest and fair and not out to take advantage of people like me who are clueless when it comes to this field. Finally, Josh was super diligent in getting home and getting our report written up and submitted so that we were able to make our closing on time. Everything easy to read and the report included very clear pictures that helped us know what steps we needed to take. If we move down the road, I'll definitely call By-Lions for the Home Inspection and will be recommending them to anyone I know who is buying a house. You couldn't ask for a better company to work with!
