Asbestos Abatement

Asbestos: A Hidden Hazard You Shouldn’t Ignore

Asbestos was widely used in homes and buildings for decades — praised for its durability and fire resistance. But what many didn’t know then is what we do now: asbestos fibers can pose serious health risks when disturbed and inhaled.

If your home was built before the 1990s, there’s a good chance asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) are still present — in insulation, ceiling tiles, flooring, or around pipes. The danger comes when these materials are damaged or removed without proper precautions. Once airborne, asbestos fibers are easily inhaled and can stay in the lungs for years.

Long-term exposure to asbestos has been linked to serious illnesses like:

• Asbestosis – A chronic lung disease that makes breathing difficult.
• Lung Cancer – Risk increases significantly with ongoing exposure.
• Mesothelioma – A rare but aggressive cancer caused by asbestos

Symptoms often don’t show up for decades, making early prevention key.
