Example project

Home: 1970s single-story brick house in Pantego, about 1,800 sq ft, with a bedroom and bath added in the 1990s
Original request: Smooth, painted ceilings throughout the house
Testing: Ten samples, one or two in every room
Found: Asbestos in the ceiling texture of the living room, kitchen, hall and two original bedrooms
Clear: The ceilings of the 1990s addition
Area: About 800 sq ft of ceiling in the five original rooms
State notice: None for a private home
Cost: $6,000

In this example, the owners of a 1970s house in Pantego want smooth ceilings throughout. A bedroom and bath were added in the 1990s, so the owners ask for samples in every room rather than assume.

Ceilings

In Pantego, about 340 homes date from the 1970s and 290 from the 1960s. A sample settles whether the sprayed texture on a ceiling is a problem, and only the popcorn ceilings that tested positive come down.

Floors

A 1960s or 1970s house can hide old tile or sheet vinyl under newer flooring in the kitchen, bath or entry. Every layer is sampled before your remodeler lifts the floor tile and sheet vinyl.

A few samples go a long way

A handful of samples can answer most questions in a town this small. Our testing and surveys cover only the surfaces your project touches, and the lab report stays with you.

Rentals, shops and rebuilds

Renters occupy about 38% of Pantego homes, and landlords can read our apartments and rentals page. A lot you plan to rebuild starts with pre-demolition abatement, and a small shop or office follows our commercial remodels route.

Homes by decade

Census estimates give Pantego about 1,200 homes, roughly 750 of them built before 1980. Most of those are from the 1970s (about 340) and 1960s (about 290). The 1980s add 220 and the 1950s only about 100.

Mostly houses, with a rental share

Roughly 70% of the homes are one-unit houses and 38% are rented. Because most homes are single houses, many projects here fall outside the state survey rules and the decision to test is yours. We suggest it for any material your remodel will disturb.

Permits and paperwork

A lone house stays outside the Texas rules for public and commercial buildings, though OSHA still protects workers you hire, and EPA suggests sampling suspect material before a renovation disturbs it.

A commercial building needs a survey before renovation or demolition. Ask the town which permit paperwork applies.

Frequently asked questions

Is it worth testing a small remodel?

If the work will cut, scrape or lift a material, yes. A sample costs little next to finding out halfway through the job. If the work will not touch the material, you can leave it alone.

My Pantego house is from the 1970s. What should I test?

Ceiling texture, joint compound and any old flooring or its glue, if your plans touch them.
