"They were great. The technician scheduled a time, contacted me regularly, checked the whole house, knew from experience what things might likely not have asbestos and what would and was right when the tests came back. Tests came back same day as well and the technician called me prior to the report being emailed to inform me and talk through the results with me."

"Although we did not go with them in the end, Joshua was still very helpful and informative even after I decided on another. He really wanted to help make sure we were getting a fair and reasonable deal on our asbestos abatement service and wanted to make sure I wasn't going to be pressured by my contractor and ripped off for a quick buck. He took a look at my photos of the issue and even offered to come out even though we had already closed the deal with another. I would definitely refer and use him in the future for issues like these. Don’t hesitate give him a call."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Typical methods for asbestos removal include encapsulation, enclosure, and complete removal.

Although the use of asbestos has declined since the 1980s, it remains in several different types of building construction materials for insulation and as a fire retardant. Typically, asbestos can be found in materials such as ceiling and floor tiles, heat-resistant fabrics and coatings, and roof shingles. You may also find asbestos in textured paint and patching compounds.

Asbestos has many beneficial properties, including fire resistance, strength, and chemical resistance. It is also an excellent insulator, which is why it was used in pipe insulation and other building materials for decades. For all its benefits, asbestos is dangerous for human health, which is why it was eventually banned from use in certain products.

According to the National Cancer Institute, asbestos-related diseases can take anywhere from 10 to 40 years for symptoms to appear. The health risks increase with prolonged and heavier exposure. Risk factors also include:

  • Amount of exposure

  • Chemical makeup, size, and shape of the asbestos fibers

  • Length of time a person is exposed to asbestos

  • Genetic factors 

  • Source of exposure (direct exposure or secondhand exposure from someone directly exposed)

It can be safe to live in a house with asbestos as long as the asbestos-containing materials are intact, in good condition, and not disturbed. Asbestos becomes dangerous only when its fibers are released into the air, which happens if the material is damaged, crumbling, or disturbed during renovation work. If you suspect asbestos is present, do not disturb it. Instead of removal, materials in good condition can sometimes be encapsulated. It is recommended to have regular professional inspections to monitor the condition of the asbestos and prevent health risks from potential exposure.
