Asbestos is known as one of the most dangerous carcinogens in nature. That’s why Asbestos removal should be handled by trained professionals. Asbestos is found naturally in the environment in low concentrations, but can be found in large concentrations in certain rocks, and was used widely in many products produced before 1978.
Asbestos containing products can still be found in old homes across the US. High concentrations can be found in insulation, siding, vinyl flooring, roof tiles and more. The danger in Asbestos removal is when material is broken off, and releases the fine Asbestos particles. Those particles become life threatening when they are inhaled by anyone around the work area.
When removing Asbestos, safety is our top priority. If removed improperly, Asbestos can be very harmful and even deadly. The EPA states that fibers are released to the air when Asbestos is agitated, or during demolition work. Exposure to Asbestos can lead to lung disease, the more you inhale, the higher the chance it will cause health effects.
The main goal when preforming professional Asbestos removal, is to keep harmful fibers away from the occupants of the home. This is achieved in several ways.
