An asbestos inspection can protect your health and offer peace of mind.
Today, asbestos is well known for its harmful nature, causing lung cancer, mesothelioma, and other serious diseases, but it wasn’t that long ago that asbestos was being used liberally in construction. Some homes still have asbestos today, and if your home was built before 1985, there’s a higher chance that it may have asbestos.
If there is a possibility that your home contains asbestos, it’s wise to find out for sure with an asbestos inspection—that way, you don’t have to worry about the risk to your health if the asbestos-containing materials have been disturbed. If no asbestos is found, you can have peace of mind. If an asbestos inspection does reveal its presence, you can move forward with asbestos abatement right away.
An asbestos inspection typically begins with a visual inspection and identification of suspected asbestos-containing materials. Some materials that are usually suspect when it comes to containing asbestos are popcorn ceiling spray coatings, floor tiles, and drywall. Then, samples are collected and tested in a lab. Of course, your inspector will be wearing a respirator and the proper PPE the entire time and conduct the inspection with the utmost attention to safety.
