"He submitted a bill of $21,000 for less than two full days of work by two men. All he did was remove about 150 sq ft of ceiling to allow water from a burst pipe to drain, bring in 8 dehumidifiers and 9 fans, take a couple of moisture readings, move three pieces of furniture down the hall in my house to a bedroom (charge for "major content manipulation" was $2960). I was extremely distraught at the damage and wrote him two checks-one for $2000 and one for $5000 which he cashed moments after getting it at my bank. Insurance adjustor recommended I tell him to stop all work on day three. He did and suddenly he was difficult to get hold of, did not show up for three scheduled meetings. On day six he sent someone I had never seen before with a rent a truck to get the equipment out of here. No protection for his two workers. Adjustor said an asbestos test should have been done prior to tearing down ceiling, and said he does not conform to industry standard charges (exacta mate?)"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) banned the use of asbestos pipe insulation in certain applications in 1975. It released further bans in 1989 and 2019. While asbestos pipe insulation was common from the 1930s to 1970s, its use fell off after the 1970s due to public concern and the EPA's actions.

Scraping off asbestos siding is extremely dangerous. When asbestos is inert, it does not pose a risk, but once disturbed, the fibers enter the air that you breathe and can cause irreparable damage. Professionals may scrape it off, but they will have more protective equipment and specialized tools that most homeowners do not have on hand.

The EPA broadly defines hazardous waste as any waste that could pose a danger to humans or the environment. More specifically, it includes any material that could combust or explode under normal temperatures and pressure, as well as materials that are toxic or corrosive. Some common household hazardous waste products include aerosol cans, paint cans, old tires, medical supplies, unused medications, fire extinguishers, cleaning solutions, and lawn care products.

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.

Asbestos siding can be dangerous if disturbed because the material itself poses a health risk. Asbestos is one of the leading causes of lung cancer as it causes mesothelioma—an aggressive cancer. Asbestos can also cause irreversible damage to your lungs by creating a buildup of scar tissue, called asbestosis. It has a habit of making its way through even robust personal protective equipment (PPE), which is why it’s not recommended that you perform any asbestos work yourself.
