"This company came highly recommended by a few neighbors in our neighborhood, so we had Carlos and his crew repair our stairs, remove the old, dingy carpet, remodel the stair treads, and paint the whole stairs and railings. He really stands out both in craftsmanship and character! He did amazing work at a completely reasonable price and I can?t express enough how genuine and kind he is. He not only cared about the work they did, but clearly cared about taking care of us (for example, wore masks as requested without judgement towards us), and he made sure to be careful around our new floors. He also was so patient with us when we made a mistake! We will absolutely have him back over for all of our painting and carpentry needs and we?ll pass along the recommendation to neighbors!"

"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!"

"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."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes. Gutting a house to the studs may actually be a good option if you believe a home contains toxic materials like asbestos, mold, or lead paint. However, this must be done under the supervision of licensed remediation experts.

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.

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.

Walking on an asbestos roof can pose a risk. Asbestos roofing materials can become brittle over time, increasing the chances of them breaking or releasing fibers when stepped on. Additionally, walking on an asbestos roof without proper precautions can cause further damage to the material. If possible, avoid touching an asbestos roof in any way and consult with a professional about removing and replacing the roof. 

Vermiculite insulation can be hazardous if it contains asbestos. Asbestos fibers, when released into the air and inhaled, can pose significant health risks. The EPA recommends leaving vermiculite insulation undisturbed to avoid potential exposure. It is crucial to have vermiculite insulation tested by a certified professional to determine if it contains asbestos. If asbestos is present, proper precautions should be taken, including containment or removal by licensed abatement professionals.
