"Be sure to specify the height of your ceilings. They did not come prepared with a ladder so they could check the cathedral ceilings in our living area which is what we were most concerned about when we hired them. We "made do" with checking other places in the house and fortunately no asbestos!! So it was worth the price to have that knowledge. They were on time and very professional."

"Trent is a solid guy. He is honest and caring, wants to do great work and help the people that work for him do a great job too. I was a bit nervous as my first time doing anything with asbestos, so I contacted Trent a bit more than the average customer. Trent was polite and clear, asking me to have patience and allow him to contact me once he had updates. I appreciated the feedback and that Trent was fine with me asking him questions about what was going on. He explained to me what he was doing each step of the way and made me feel prioritized as a customer and a person. I would highly recommend Trent and his crew to anyone who wants asbestos removal done at a fair price with reputable people. They cleaned up after themselves and made sure to move anything of mine out of the way as to not damage it. They also told us to stay out of the house until it was cleared of asbestos from air quality testing, valuing our safety. He got the job done quick and done well! Thank you, Trent and the rest of Tracco!"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

In the 1980s, the use of asbestos in house siding materials underwent a significant decline, ultimately being phased out by the mid-1980s to early 1990s. This change was largely due to a growing awareness of the severe health risks associated with asbestos exposure, particularly its link to lung diseases and cancers. With increased public concern and regulatory agency involvement, building codes and regulations were updated to restrict the use of asbestos in construction materials. 

According to the National Cancer Institute, asbestos-related diseases can take anywhere from 10 to 40 years for symptoms to appear. The health risks increase with prolonged and heavier exposure. Risk factors also include:

  • Amount of exposure

  • Chemical makeup, size, and shape of the asbestos fibers

  • Length of time a person is exposed to asbestos

  • Genetic factors 

  • Source of exposure (direct exposure or secondhand exposure from someone directly exposed)

Asbestos has many beneficial properties, including fire resistance, strength, and chemical resistance. It is also an excellent insulator, which is why it was used in pipe insulation and other building materials for decades. For all its benefits, asbestos is dangerous for human health, which is why it was eventually banned from use in certain products.

Since the EPA partially banned asbestos in 1989, it is no longer used to manufacture new siding in the United States; production had largely ceased by the early 1980s. Many other countries, such as Canada, Iceland, and Denmark, also have bans on asbestos. However, asbestos siding is still present in many homes built before the late 1980s. The only definitive way to know if your siding contains asbestos is to have it professionally lab-tested.

Some pros may recommend covering a popcorn ceiling that tests positive for asbestos with beadboard ceiling planks or drywall. The cost to install a beadboard ceiling averages more than $5,000, but you likely will pay more than the average for the installer to deal with the asbestos safely. Installing a beadboard ceiling or new drywall will disturb the asbestos and release some microscopic fibers, so the installer will need to take precautions.
