Asbestos is a fibrous material that has been widely used in building and construction materials for decades before being declared a hazard. It was used specifically in wallboard, floor tiles, insulation, roofing material, electrical conduits, and cement, among others.

Asbestos fibers do not pose any immediate threat to the environment, but when they are released into the air, and are inhaled, they present a severe health hazard to anyone exposed. Asbestos fibers are microscopic and not readily visible to the naked eye. Therefore, it is only through the use of specific equipment that it can be detected and removed safely.

Asbestos removal is necessary for any property where asbestos-containing materials are found, as it protects occupants' health and avoids potential legal consequences. It is also essential to remove asbestos if you plan to conduct any renovations or demolitions on an older building.

Asbestos-containing materials must be removed carefully, and only by licensed professionals with the required training, equipment and experience.
