Asbestos is absolutely cancerous. In fact, around 4% of all lung cancer cases are the result of asbestos exposure. This is why we recommend a full, professional removal and cleaning of any asbestos found in your home. If you are unsure whether there is any present, you should call a pro who will inspect your property.

While a professional can always help, there are some common plumbing culprits you can check yourself to see if you can find the sewer gas smell. For example, you should check your water traps, sometimes called P-traps and S-traps, which are located under sink, shower, and laundry drains. The wax ring beneath the base of your toilet, which creates a watertight seal with the plumbing, could also have gone bad.

Typical methods for asbestos removal include encapsulation, enclosure, and complete removal.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), you should contact the following officials to report a case of asbestos exposure:

• Asbestos subject matter experts in your state 

• EPA regional office

• Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) Assistance Information Service Hotline via mail, email, or phone

• EPA’s Asbestos Ombudsman via phone or fax
