"I can only comment on our initial meeting. Tysan showed up on time and was courteous, respectful, and attentive. From our previous phone call, the objective was to evaluate the entrance gate and driveway. Like many homeowners, I think I walked the property and showed Mr. Westplans for mechanical rrooms bathroom additions , a huge roofing project, new proposed plumbing, 2 new fireplaces, and a 100 foot long shed on the other part of the property. So, while Tysan and South Mountain Industrial Services showed up to estimate a "whole bunch of apples," I rambled on for several hours about "a whole bunch of oranges." Tysan remained very patient and attentive and after the initial consultation, sent me a detailed proposal to start with a days work, maybe two of clearing huge boulders and the removal of dozens of trees and stumps. Personally, I have used a Bobcat and a backhoe, however, the work done recently on my property would have taken at least a week. Mr. West can thread the eye of a needle with this heavy equipment that is needed for my big project. Definitely, I want Mr. West involved with the future project regardless of the capacity. Tysan West is a General Contractor, and I look forward to the tentative GO that we agreed upon verbally to begin the permit, pad and metal bldg. at the end of May, beginning of June. Tysans punctuality, courteousness, and detailed estimates on Proposal is Professional at least, unlike most of the prima-donna Santa Fe contractors I have encountered the last 15 years, which is at best. By the way...that whole morning spent consulting and reviewing the work and somewhat layout, was with no pressure and with no charge."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

It is strongly advised not to touch or disturb asbestos-containing materials unless necessary. Asbestos fibers can be released into the air when the material is damaged or disturbed, posing serious health risks if inhaled. It is best to leave any handling of asbestos to trained professionals who can remove the asbestos safely.

You are not really supposed to seal asbestos with paint, but in theory it could work—the caveat being that this is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. The only real way to seal asbestos is with the professional application of an encapsulating material like epoxy. Due to the negative effect asbestos can have on your home, however, it is usually the best course of action to accept a costly fix and remove the material entirely.

Most manufacturers stopped putting asbestos in linoleum before 1980 due to public concerns about its toxicity. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn’t ban asbestos-containing products until 1989, and a comprehensive ban was not announced until 2024. This means that homes built after 1989 may still have asbestos in their flooring.

While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.
