Best way to make the repair
I have a bit of a dilemma now.
I just had a leak detection for a small leak and then it turned into a flooded basement where my brother is living. After removing the carpet it looks like asbestos tile is underneath and I am not sure what the right thing to do is. Should I just seal it up with killz or something and put some lvp on top of it or have someone come in and test it/remove it professionally? Also, would you guys know if insurance would cover the flooring at all or would the adjuster have to say it needs replaced?
Thanks in advance.
