Q: Can lungs heal from asbestos?

• <div><p>When asbestos damages the lungs it causes a condition called &ldquo;asbestosis&rdquo; which, unfortunately, can&rsquo;t be cured once it&rsquo;s damaged the lungs. This condition is chronic and any treatment is undertaken to improve quality of life. This usually involves quitting smoking, being prescribed oxygen, and undergoing lung rehab. Severe cases usually require a lung transplant.</p></div>

Q: Does having asbestos siding affect my home’s resale value?

• <div><p>If you are trying to sell a home with asbestos siding, most jurisdictions force you to disclose this in official documentation about the home. Some potential buyers may not want to purchase a home with asbestos siding, which could negatively affect their health if the siding becomes disturbed. However, as long as the siding is in good condition, some buyers may not see it as a disadvantage. You could take on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-to-replace-asbestos-siding.htm">cost to replace asbestos siding</a> if you have concerns over this material affecting your home&rsquo;s resale value.</p></div>

Q: Can you encapsulate asbestos siding?

• <div><p>if you install new siding on top of old asbestos siding, you may keep the fibers trapped, but it would not necessarily be considered encapsulation. To do so properly requires a professional, who uses a certain type of sealant that needs to be spread over the asbestos in a number of layers in order to trap all the fibers. Although you may be able to buy this sealant yourself, it is highly advised that, once you find asbestos, you call a pro immediately. </p></div>

"My initial contact, David, with the company was great. When I got handed off to the local company that would be taking care of the paperwork and scheduling several things got lost in translation and my project was delayed from the original promised date of completion. I spoke with my original contact and everything was back on track. The third group of people, the ones that showed up at my house, were also great. This was a tiring process but finding asbestos in your house is not easy either way. I would use this company again if I needed it."
