You may have it in your home and never know! Let’s us find out for you!

We hope everyone had a happy and safe Labor Day! Now, let’s get at it!!!

I love to read comments about Asbestos, especially since the incident yesterday.

Please don't say what you think you know, people will take this as fact. Asbestos and Fiberglass bear no resemblance whatsoever...

It's awesome satisfying telling a homeowner that they have no asbestos in their sample. The look of relief is good to see....

We will close early Wednesday and be closed Thursday & Friday!

I’ve closed early today and will be closed, Thursday and Friday! Back in Monday…

After about 3 weeks of Covid, I'm back in the office daily. Still in and out (mainly 10am) but we are open and as always there is a # listed on the door if I'm not here.

After a 3 day weekend, we are back in the office ready to tackle your Asbestos needs.

We are asking in the wake of the COVID-19 outbreak that if you need to drop samples off, if at all possible call ahead and leave samples at the front door. If you need to enter the office please leave samples at the 1st desk in the office and kindly do not linger. We are hoping to keep our area safe and sanitized for your protection and ours.

What is Asbestos

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral-based material that is resistant to heat and corrosive chemicals. Asbestos appears as a whitish fibrous material. Airborne asbestos fibers can cause health damage and may be too small to see with the naked eye.

What are the types of Asbestos?

There are four types of Asbestos;

(1) Chrysotile- white, fine flexible fibers. This is the most commonly used type in the U.S.

(2) Amosite- Brown, straight brittle fibers. Most commonly used in thermal system insulation.

(3) Crocidolite- Straight blue fibers, used in high temperature applications.

(4) Anthopyllite, Tremolite, Actinolite- Extremely rare, little commercial value and are usually found as contaminates in asbestos containing materials.

What are the Dangers of Asbestos Exposure?

Exposure to asbestos can cause (1) ASBESTOSIS- scarring of the lungs, which in an accelerated state can cause death. (2) MESOTHELIOMA- cancer affecting the membrane lining of the lungs also can cause death. (3) LUNG CANCER (4) CANCER- of the esophagus, stomach, colon, and re**um.
