Because asbestos was used in thousands of building products it’s very likely that it might be present in some building materials in your office building or even in your home; but don’t panic! We find that is often best practice to LEAVE asbestos materials that are not damaged ALONE. Asbestos building materials that are in satisfactory condition will not release asbestos fibers unless they are disturbed by renovations, vibrations air erosion, or other human activities. Asbestos is not dangerous unless fibers become airborne and inhaled into our lungs. If you suspect your home contains an asbestos building material have it tested prior to disturbing it. Some common materials are floor tile (9”x9” and 12” x 12”), plaster, drywall joint compound, cement siding, vinyl sheet flooring, roofing, insulations, etc.
