"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!"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

If you suspect exposure to asbestos, prioritize seeking medical advice by informing your healthcare provider about the potential exposure with clear details about the circumstances that led to the exposure. Regular health check-ups and screenings if you work in high-risk industries or live in a home with asbestos are essential for early detection of any asbestos-related conditions. You should also consider consulting occupational health experts or legal professionals for guidance on potential next steps and preventive measures.

In the event of suspected or confirmed asbestos contamination on the body, it is imperative to take immediate measures to reduce health risks. To avoid further exposure, carefully remove contaminated clothing and shower thoroughly to remove any asbestos fibers. Seek prompt medical attention, and inform your healthcare professional about your suspected asbestos exposure. Since asbestos-related health issues can take years to surface, regular medical check-ups are advised for anyone with a history of exposure.

Currently, there is no federal licensing mandate for asbestos removal contractors. However, certain cities and states require certification and specialized training. For example, in New York, those handling asbestos must receive an Asbestos Handler Certification. The mandates dictating the necessary training or certifications vary based on state and local laws.

Asbestos-containing materials, like duct wrap, should be encapsulated using a sealant specifically formulated for asbestos. These sealants work to bind with asbestos fibers and help further neutralize them as a health risk. Whenever you’re working near asbestos-containing materials, be sure to keep safety as a top priority and wear a P-100-rated respirator as well as protective clothing.

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)
