Many buildings and homes that were constructed prior to 1980 contain asbestos. It was common for asbestos to be included in roofing shingles, plumbing systems, electrical systems, floor tiles, and old furnaces. Exposure to asbestos can lead to cancer, including mesothelioma, and other health problems. If you suspect that your home or a building you own contains asbestos, it is important to have it inspected by a professional. Here are a few things you should know about asbestos removal and why working with All About Asbestos will make the process easy for you.
What Asbestos Removal Involves
The first step is working with a qualified inspector. The inspector will look through the home or building and give you a written evaluation. They will offer suggestions on steps that should be taken in order to protect occupants of the building. They may outline steps to take to ensure that any materials that are used in the home or building are not damaged so as to prevent asbestos from being released. Or they may recommend that materials containing asbestos be removed as soon as possible.
Only qualified professionals should be hired to remove materials that contain asbestos. The abatement process needs to be done carefully. The area should be marked as hazardous. The removal process can then begin. Professionals will carefully break down pieces of asbestos containing materials and dispose of them properly.
