"Great service and very knowledgeable. Provided us with input and talked about options we could consider based on different outcomes. I particularly liked that less-invasive options were considered when gathering test samples so that we didn't have holes in our walls while planning for next steps. I would definitely contact Enviocore if we ever have another water issue arise."

"I was especially impressed with the team at Altura. Manny did an excellent job at defining scope and setting expectations upfront. They were very professional and went the extra mile to ensure the project went well logistically. The project was managed with excellence and communication. Even when there a small amount of accidental damage, Altura, made sure to make it right. This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had with a contractor and would highly recommend them to anyone."

"Excellent, Fast, Fair, Friendly company, cannot recommend highly enough. It was a very stressful time for us dealing with massive water damage. Edge returned my call within 5 minutes, was out to our place the same day, and gave a very fair quote for the job way better than companies that were trying to take advantage of our stressful situation. We scheduled the work right away, and they did a fantastic job on time, cleaned up after, highly professional. Do not hire anyone else you would only regret it!"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

To seal off, or encapsulate, asbestos-containing materials in your home, you’ll need to utilize a sealant specifically designed for asbestos encapsulation. These sealants bind with asbestos fibers to keep them from spreading throughout the air and causing bodily harm. In many cases, these sealants can be simply painted on, but you’ll need to wear a protective body suit as well as an asbestos-rated respirator to interact with these materials safely.

No, but it’s common that they do. Gravity furnaces weren’t terribly efficient so wrapping either the ductwork in asbestos, the furnace itself, or both, was something done regularly. This allowed the system to retain more heat. At the time, this greatly enhanced the efficiency of the furnaces but it wasn’t until later that we became aware of just how carcinogenic and dangerous asbestos could be.

When asbestos fibers become airborne, they enter a person's respiratory system. These fibers scar and damage the lungs and often lead to serious cancers like mesothelioma. Like many dangers in the house, asbestos isn’t easy to see when it could be causing serious damage. The amount of time exposed, combined with the person’s tolerance for asbestos inhalation and the amount inhaled, will all contribute to health problems.

While asbestos can’t be directly absorbed through the skin—the fibers are too big—skin contact can still produce symptoms. Contact dermatitis can flare up in sensitive individuals but in most cases, the danger from asbestos comes from inhaling the fibers, or dust, that is produced when asbestos is disturbed. If you touch asbestos by accident, immediately wash yourself and your clothes.
