Our asbestos siding treatment removes potential toxins from your home.
You likely don’t think much about your home’s siding, especially if nothing seems to be wrong with it. However, if your home was constructed prior to 1985, it may contain a potentially harmful substance called asbestos. Asbestos is an odorless substance that cannot be distinguished by the naked eye, and it was commonly used in construction between the 1940s and 1970s due to its fire resistance, low cost, and relative strength. However, it has been linked to many health conditions, including cancer.
On its own, asbestos is not necessarily harmful. It’s only when it is disturbed or starts to deteriorate that it releases airborne toxins that, when inhaled, can have health consequences. Due to its potential dangers, asbestos siding should be removed as soon as possible. If you suspect there is asbestos siding on your home, our team can help. We can refer you to a trusted testing company that can inspect your siding materials and any other suspected surfaces at your home, accurately and efficiently determining the presence of asbestos. If detected, we can perform asbestos removal services to help you and your family avoid exposure to its toxins.
Your home should be a place you always feel safe and comfortable. Here at Remtech Environmental, we understand how important your health and well-being are, and we are committed to helping you avoid the potential harm of asbestos. If the testing concludes that asbestos is present in your siding, we can safely remove it. The removal of asbestos, if not done properly, can be dangerous.

Asbestos siding can sometimes be indicated by the presence of shingle shapes, nail punctures, or a ringing sound when tapped with a hammer. However, none of these tests are completely conclusive, and lab testing is necessary to definitively answer whether or not asbestos is present in your siding. The sooner you test your siding, the better, as the longer asbestos is allowed to remain on your property, the more time it has to break down and potentially cause health problems.

Our team always puts safety first, and all our procedures ensure no one is harmed by the testing or removal of asbestos-containing materials.
