Asbestos In Ceiling Tiles

Asbestos in ceiling tiles. Home inspectors (on home purchases) will often list ceiling tiles as a suspect containing building material on their home inspection reports. Although ceiling tiles may contain asbestos, it is more common to find asbestos in the ceiling tile glue dots rather than the ceiling tiles, themselves. When inspecting ceiling tiles, it is important to verify if the tiles are part of a true drop ceiling or not. If they are actually glued to a drywall or plaster ceiling, then the glue should be analyzed as well.
