Asbestos
What is it? Asbestos is a common name for a group of naturally occurring minerals used in the manufacturing of numerous building products since the early 1900’s. It is well known today that asbestos exposure from breathing or ingesting the fibers can cause serious, often fatal diseases. Asbestos can be found in thousands of building materials such as fireproofing, floor tiles, linoleum, drywall or joint compound, roofing products, cement pipes and thousands more. Over time, asbestos building products can sustain damage, weathering, erosion and may be disturbed and become airborne during repair, renovation or demolition.
