just curious, if you do this as standard operating procedure even if nothing is evident? Obviously, if I'm lifting out 9x9 tile built before the 80's (which I'd never do), I'm going to test for asbestos.

realize some of these items are regionally based but thought I'd throw it out there.

if so, do you pickup a kit yourself at HD, etc or is it farmed out to an outside contractor?
