"This company's rates were competitive, but what really set them apart was the consistent communication with us about the providing the quote, following up on booking date/time for asbestos removal, and doing the work on time. Also they thoroughly answered our many questions and requests for clarifications throughout the process. Getting asbestos removed is no joke and Envirogo was very clear about their safety protocols. Would definitely recommend."

"Mr. Walker was fast, efficient and communicated well. He reached out quickly after my enquiry, he came for the samples the next day exactly as he planned and had a completed lab test report emailed to me the following day. Based upon this experience I plan to hire his services for asbestos removal."

"Brian and his team are exceptional. Brian is timely and responsive in his communications. He meets his timelines by showing up and completing his work as promised. His experience and knowledge of this business is terrific. He brought to my attention that I may be eligible for a significant financial rebate because of the specific asbestos that was removed. Sharing this information and providing guidance on how to pursue the claim went above and beyond the scope of work for my project. Brian does not just show up to do a job, he is thoughtful and considers the full situation to ensure his clients receive the best work and care. It is never a good thing needing to remove asbestos, but thankfully there are people like Brian and businesses like Tolson Environmental that make the process easy. I highly recommend Brian to anyone needing this service!"

"They were able to remove the sub ceiling for us even though it came back negative for asbestos but it was really helpful considering it was all done the same week and got us ahead on the kitchen."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Asbestos-containing materials are not easily affected by water and do not disintegrate or dissolve when exposed to it. However, porous materials can deteriorate due to water exposure, leading to the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The settling of asbestos fibers can also occur as water makes them heavy, which reduces the risk of airborne exposure, though future disturbance of the materials could cause risk. Wetting asbestos-containing materials does not constitute safe removal, and the proper handling and disposal of asbestos materials should be left to professionals.

Detailed cleaning, air quality testing, and proper disposal of hazardous materials.

You are not really supposed to seal asbestos with paint, but in theory it could work—the caveat being that this is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. The only real way to seal asbestos is with the professional application of an encapsulating material like epoxy. Due to the negative effect asbestos can have on your home, however, it is usually the best course of action to accept a costly fix and remove the material entirely.

Asbestos is a carcinogen, meaning it increases the risk of cancer. Inhaling asbestos fibers is linked to several respiratory issues, including asbestosis, or scarring on the lungs, lung cancer, and mesothelioma, another type of cancer. There's also a link between asbestos exposure and an increased risk of colon cancer and other cancers of the digestive system.

Usually, the people most at risk for disease related to asbestos exposure are those who spend a lot of time working around the material without protection. Electricians who work with asbestos wire have a higher risk of developing mesothelioma or lung cancer due to their exposure.

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.
