Asbestos Removal

Keep your family safe with asbestos removal

Asbestos is a mineral that was commonly used as a building material between the 1940s and 1970s due to its impressive fire-retardant properties. Unfortunately, asbestos is also a major health hazard, since breathing in asbestos fibers can cause lung damage, most commonly leading to mesothelioma and lung cancer. While asbestos is no longer a common building material because of this, many older homes are still filled with building materials that contain asbestos.

The good news is that most asbestos building materials are not extremely dangerous, as long as they aren’t disturbed or deteriorating. If you are planning any kind of remodel though or have old, deteriorating insulation, then it’s a good idea to have your home tested. Luckily, a qualified contractor can identify the areas where the asbestos is located and remove it so it won’t harm you or your family.
