Q: Do bathroom tiles have asbestos?

• <div><p>Bathroom tiles can contain asbestos, just the same as patio tiles or kitchen tiles. Remember that asbestos was used primarily for its insulative and fire-resistant properties, both of which are desired in a house. Before we knew asbestos caused cancers and other diseases, it made a lot of sense to include it in many different building materials, including bathroom tiles.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to see test results?

• <div><p>A professional indoor air quality inspection takes anywhere from one to three hours, depending on the size of your home and the number of necessary samples. After the test, the specialist will discuss the findings, but you won&rsquo;t get a full written report for 2 to 10 days, though you can ask your pro to expedite the process, if needed. </p></div>

Q: Can asbestos be absorbed through the skin?

• <div><p>While asbestos can&rsquo;t be directly absorbed through the skin&mdash;the fibers are too big&mdash;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.</p></div>

Q: How can I save money on asbestos removal?

• <div><p>Since DIY asbestos removal isn&rsquo;t the best option to save money, there are other steps that you can take to help cut costs when dealing with this project. After speaking with your asbestos removal expert, discuss if encapsulation is an option. If it is, you can save between <b>15% to 25%</b> on overall project costs over demolition and disposal. In addition, when speaking with your professional, discuss if there are any tax credits available for your removal project. Finally, check with your homeowner&rsquo;s insurance to see if any removal costs might be covered. However, be aware that this is usually only applicable if the asbestos is due to a covered incident, like a tree falling into your roof. </p></div>

Q: When was asbestos banned from pipe insulation?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
