About this area
Palmer and its villages (Three Rivers, Bondsville, Thorndike) combine mill-era and residential stock common for testing. Asbestos inspection in Palmer usually focuses on the materials a renovation, roofing, or siding project will disturb. Reports are based on accredited lab results. Nearby towns in Hampden County include Springfield, West Springfield, Chicopee, Holyoke.
