Asbestos Abatement
Asbestos is a mineral that has been used as a binder and insulation material in thousands of building materials including:
Pipe and Boiler Insulations
Sprayed on fireproofing
Toweled or sprayed on acoustical textures (popcorn ceilings)
Plaster, drywall and drywall taping and texturing compounds
Cement shingles and panels used in roofing and siding
Cement water pipes
Window glazing putty
Sheet and vinyl floor coverings
Roofing materials
Mastics and adhesives
Fabrics
Friction materials (brakes and clutches)
Because of its versatility, strength, and resistance to heat and chemicals, it has been called the "Magic Mineral". Unfortunately, it also causes severe health problems, including terminal respiratory diseases and cancer.
Proper identification and abatement of asbestos materials is a must. EPA and OSHA have strict guidelines for worker training and proper abatement techniques.
