When it comes to asbestos removal in residential buildings, safety and expertise are critical. Improper handling of asbestos can release dangerous fibers into the air, which may lead to serious health problems, including respiratory issues, lung diseases, and even long-term illnesses such as mesothelioma. Many older homes contain asbestos in insulation, flooring, popcorn ceilings, siding, and pipe coverings, and disturbing these materials without proper precautions can put your family, pets, and neighbors at risk. That’s why hiring a licensed and experienced professional is not just important, it’s essential.
