"I had just joined Home Advisor and was looking for someone who could help me get the material in my attic tested, and if necessary, abate any asbestos that was found. Before I even had a chance to look at the suggested companies I got a call from Mike F. of Central Valley Environmental. He had seen my listing. was in Merced and offered to come by. He got a sample from my attic, told me who to send it to and how to send it. I was lucky, the analysis of my sample showed no asbestos. But if it hadn't, I would have hired CVE to do the work. Mike made it so easy for me. Thanks!"
"Needed to have asbestos containing shingles removed for a siding project. The sales folks, specifically Rudolpho, were very helpful. The job was done quickly and for a fair amount. Hope not to need them again but would highly recommend."
"The home we purchased was a bank foreclosed property. The home has many problems, a lot of them cosmetic. Mr. Standish e-mailed us the report within 2 days and mailed us a very nice bound report with a CD with the report and the full sized pictures from the report. We choose to use Standish Inspections based on his reputation and he turned out to be a true professional."
"Chris was extremely knowledgable and helpful with answering all my questions. He thoroughly explained the process of asbestos testing and removal, great customer service!"

Asbestos itself does not typically leak from a roof. However, if an asbestos-containing roof is damaged or deteriorated, it can release asbestos fibers into the air. This can occur when the roof is disturbed, such as during maintenance or repairs, or due to weathering over time. Exposure to airborne asbestos fibers can be harmful to health, so it is important to address any damaged asbestos roofs promptly and safely.
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.
Detailed cleaning, air quality testing, and proper disposal of hazardous materials.
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.
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.
