Asbestos was commonly used for construction projects until the 1980s, when it was proven to be a carcinogen that causes lung cancer, mesothelioma, and other serious respiratory diseases.
Distributing asbestos-containing materials without proper safety measures can release the deadly fibers into the air. Professional removal isn’t just recommended, it’s essential to protect your family, employees, and anyone who enters your property.
Our abatement specialists commonly encounter asbestos in:
