"Willie is very professional and knows his stuff. He visited us several times as we planned the project, and he and his mason Polo consulted with us on our various options. It took about two weeks to complete. Some delays were due to letting block walls cure overnight before they could get any higher. Regardless, they finished in the estimated time. There were some sections we were unsure of because a previous owner had covered up the basement walls with beadboard. After uncovering, they honestly advised us that there was no major damage there and proceeded to carefully replace the cripple wall supports with larger and stronger beams. They did great work, were very pleasant to work with, and we would hire them again!"
"We liked our interior design plan that we received , but it just took a long time to get the final plan. She had told us in the beginning that she had gotten a big response to that deal.
"The Aztec crew were very professional and worked very hard to help us return our house to a level state. The crew had to hand dig twenty holes around the parameter of our house in order to place twenty piers to be used in the leveling process. The dirt that was removed was carefully placed in an area that was covered with plastic and later replaced as was the stones and other yard items. When done it was hard to tell they had been there. Thank you Aztec for helping us return our house to a state of normalcy. "

The signs of asbestos exposure are often subtle and may not appear for many years, or even decades, after initial contact. This long latency period is one of the primary dangers associated with asbestos.
When symptoms do manifest, they can include:
Shortness of breath
A persistent, dry cough
Chest pain or tightness
Fatigue
Wheezing
Weight loss
Difficulty swallowing
A dry, crackling sound from the lungs when breathing
These symptoms are non-specific and can be mistaken for other respiratory conditions, making diagnosis challenging. Prolonged exposure can lead to serious diseases as the asbestos fibers cause scarring and inflammation in the lungs. These conditions include asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.
Due to the vague nature of early symptoms, regular medical check-ups are crucial for anyone with a known history of asbestos exposure, particularly in an occupational setting. If you suspect asbestos is present in your home, a professional inspection is recommended.
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.
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.
Asbestos is commonly found in certain older homes, depending on the time period in which they were built. Asbestos use in home construction began in the 1920s and peaked after World War II before being limited by legislation in the ’70s, so a house constructed in 1880 is unlikely to contain asbestos, while one built in 1950 is much more likely to. Research a home’s history to determine the time period when it was built and any renovations made since.
