WHY IS ASBESTOS A CONCERN?
Exposure to asbestos can cause lung cancer. Asbestos is a mineral fiber that has often been added to various building products to strengthen them, provide heat insulation, and make them fire resistant. When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed during building maintenance, renovation, or demolition activities, fibers can be released into the air people breathe.
Common Asbestos-Containing Materials in Buildings
Because asbestos doesn’t burn, it was used in many products to resist heat. The “miracle mineral” made these asbestos-containing materials valuable to the building industry.
Asbestos is often found in a number of commercial and residential buildings, in a wide variety of products:
Vermiculite Insulation, Ceiling Tiles & Coatings
Vinyl Floor Tiles & Mastic Adhesive
Roof Shingles & Siding
Popcorn Ceiling Texture
Pipe Insulation & Duct Coverings
Thermal Boiler & Fireplace Insulations
Drywall & Cement Sheets (Transite)
Plaster, Putties & Caulking
Electrical Switchboard Panels
Plumbing Fixtures
schedule a site visit to determine if the material in your building is asbestos.

Asbestos do’s and don’ts
Do leave undamaged asbestos-containing materials alone.
Do keep activities to a minimum in any areas having damaged material that may contain asbestos, including limiting children's access to any materials that may contain asbestos.
Do take every precaution to avoid damaging asbestos-containing material.
Do have removal and major repair done by people trained and qualified in handling asbestos. It is highly recommended that sampling and minor repair also be done by a trained and accredited asbestos professional
Don't dust, sweep, or vacuum debris that may contain asbestos.
Don't saw, sand, scrape, or drill holes in asbestos-containing materials.
Don't use abrasive pads or brushes on power strippers to strip wax from asbestos flooring. Never use a power stripper on flooring that may contain asbestos.
Don't sand or try to level asbestos flooring or its backing. When asbestos flooring needs replacing install new floor covering over it, if possible.
Don't track material that could contain asbestos through the house. If you cannot avoid walking through the area, have it cleaned with a wet mop. If the material is from a damaged area or if a large area must be cleaned, call an asbestos professional.
If you are planning to remodel or your site has damaged building materials, make sure you seek out our trained and accredited asbestos professionals to analyze any potentially hazardous material to ensure your safety.
