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

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. 

If you think you’ve touched asbestos, do not put on a mask. This is important because you may take the asbestos fibers on your hands on trap them in the mask. Make your way to a sink and wash your hands thoroughly. Remove any clothes and seal them in a bag, then take a shower. Call your doctor and let them know you’ve been exposed to asbestos, and make sure you see them as soon as possible. The reason you keep the clothes is in case anyone wants to confirm the presence of asbestos.

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.

Asbestos-containing materials, like duct wrap, should be encapsulated using a sealant specifically formulated for asbestos. These sealants work to bind with asbestos fibers and help further neutralize them as a health risk. Whenever you’re working near asbestos-containing materials, be sure to keep safety as a top priority and wear a P-100-rated respirator as well as protective clothing.

Since DIY asbestos removal isn’t the best option to save money, there are other steps that you can take to help cut costs when dealing with this project. After speaking with your asbestos removal expert, discuss if encapsulation is an option. If it is, you can save between 15% to 25% on overall project costs over demolition and disposal. In addition, when speaking with your professional, discuss if there are any tax credits available for your removal project. Finally, check with your homeowner’s insurance to see if any removal costs might be covered. However, be aware that this is usually only applicable if the asbestos is due to a covered incident, like a tree falling into your roof.
