Asbestos Building Inspection and Project Design Services, and AIR MONITOR/Air Clearance Technician/Phase Contrast Microscopy: NIOSH-582 Technician who provides "Independent 3rd Party Verification" as required by law for Asbestos Abatement Projects. I "conduct third pary "check and balance" verification that asbestos abatement area is "safe" for re-occupancy. This is a requirement , by law, if room or area is to be reoccupied after abatement--as opposed to being hauled off to dump. Certain laws require that a certified Asbestos Building Inspector, survey, sample and identify asbestos containing materials BEFORE a demolition or renovation project begins and obviously BEFORE workers or occupants get exposed to ASBESTOS DUST. Get me involved in the process BEFORE the hammers fly and my services will protect occupants from exposure to asbestos dust. PRE-DEMOLITION ASBESTOS SURVEYS: I identify what materials contain asbestos. I can then guide you regarding regulations and liabilities. Knowledge is power: if we can identify materials before they are disturbed, then we have the option to adjust plans to avoid disturbance ( i.e. "encapsulate" versus "abate"--going over the top of "hot" vinyl flooring with one more course of thin underlayment, e.g.). AT ALL TIMES: it is far better to KNOW if your sheetrock, vinyl flooring, wall paper, floor tile or carpet adhesive and rubber backing has asbestos in it, than to create an exposure event, get "caught" at the dump and then have to pay for an emergency clean up. DEQ Enforcement fines can be substantial--$8,000 to $25,000 fines are very recent numbers for residential projects, which involved very small amounts of material, but were mishandled. I sample for asbestos and can provide you information that can then be used in DUE DILIGENCE efforts, or can be useful in PROJECT SCOPE DETERMINATION. PROTECT your family, protect your Contractor, protect their families, too. Abide by regulations and avoid liability issues which can linger for three decades after-the-fact. FIND OUT BEFORE YOU HAVE TO ; "Check it before you Wreck it". I perform AIR SAMPLING and PHASE CONTRAST MICROSCOPY SERVICES, " NIOSH-582" I have over 24 years as a Remodeling Contractor which translates into an extremely effective surveyor who doesn't miss anything.

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

You can cover asbestos siding with another type of siding, such as vinyl, however, this may not be the best option. Covering the asbestos siding may disturb it, releasing fibers into the air. The covered siding can also be disturbed at a later date, such as by a new homeowner who is unaware of its presence.

If you decide to cover the siding, be sure to work with a professional and follow any local building codes and requirements. It may be the case that removing the asbestos siding is the better option, rather than covering it over. 

If asbestos is present, professionals provide recommendations for safe removal or containment. Follow local regulations for handling.

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. 

Asbestos encapsulation is an alternative to asbestos abatement or removal. Suppose you have hired an asbestos testing service and they recommend encapsulation. In that case, they will cover the asbestos with a protective barrier or put it in a sealed enclosure so the fibers cannot escape. Encapsulation usually costs between $2 and $6 per square foot.

It is best to wear a respirator during the sanding, painting, and sealing process. It can filter particles, vapors, and fumes that can be toxic to breathe. So it’s better to be safe and protect your lungs during this project.
