Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

It is legal to cover asbestos tile with new flooring. For some homeowners, this is a reasonable option to prevent asbestos fibers from spreading in the home and reduce health hazards. However, it’s a better long-term solution to completely remove asbestos from your home rather than cover it up.

The presence of asbestos fibers in siding is a critical health concern, as they can be inhaled and lead to severe respiratory issues. Even if asbestos siding appears to be in good condition, it may become a danger if it deteriorates over time or is disturbed during a renovation project, as this can release airborne fibers. Exposure to these fibers is linked to life-threatening diseases like asbestosis, mesothelioma, and lung cancer.

You shouldn’t see a difference in your home’s value from your local property assessor if you have asbestos. Does asbestos affect home value when you are selling the home, though? If you are planning to sell the home, most jurisdictions require you to legally disclose the presence of asbestos to any buyer. Most buyers would have reservations about purchasing a home with asbestos, so they may offer less for the home. If you hire a pro to completely remove the asbestos, you do not have to disclose to buyers that the home once had asbestos.

Epoxying over asbestos tiles is generally considered a safe option when done correctly. Epoxy acts as a sealant, encapsulating the asbestos tiles and preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The key is ensuring that the asbestos tiles are in good condition, firmly adhered to the substrate, and not damaged or deteriorating. This method is only appropriate for tiles that are undamaged and securely in place. If the asbestos tiles are already loose, damaged, or deteriorating, encapsulating them with epoxy may not be a sufficient solution, as it might not address the potential for ongoing asbestos exposure.

No, an N95 mask will not protect against asbestos and many other hazardous materials, such as carbon monoxide, gas, chemical vapors, and other gases. You will need a respirator specifically designed to protect against asbestos. However, if you suspect asbestos is present in your home, hire an asbestos abatement professional immediately and avoid the area until they arrive for the inspection.
