What is asbestos and why does it matter?
“Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring minerals that were used extensively in building materials, including floor tiles, insulation, roofing, and textured coatings, until the late twentieth century. When asbestos-containing materials deteriorate or are disturbed, they can release fibers that, when inhaled, pose a serious long-term health risk.”
View in the company profileWhen should I get asbestos testing?
“Any time you are planning a renovation, demolition, or disturbance of materials in a building constructed before the 1990s. Also before a property sale or purchase when the building's material history is unclear. Testing is the only way to confirm the presence or absence of asbestos.”
View in the company profileWhat happens if asbestos is found?
“If testing confirms asbestos-containing material, the next step depends on its condition and location. Not all findings require removal.”
View in the company profileIs all asbestos dangerous?
“Asbestos that is intact and undisturbed poses a lower immediate risk than material in poor condition. The primary concern is friable asbestos: material that crumbles easily and releases fibers into the air. Testing and professional assessment help determine the risk level and appropriate response.”
