Asbestos Spill Delineation
A critical question arises when structural materials are disturbed or damaged and found to contain asbestos: how far has the hazardous asbestos-containing dust spread? This dust poses serious health risks and demands immediate attention to ensure safety.
What are the Health Risks of Asbestos Exposure?
Asbestos materials in their “normal installed state” are ok, but when the materials are disturbed to a point of becoming pulverized, microscopic asbestos fibers can be released and will likely go airborne. Asbestos remediation must be performed to make the space safe.
Once airborne, you can breathe them in where they can get lodged in your lungs. Breathing in asbestos can cause lung damage, mesothelioma, and cancer.
X factor:
The X factor is the human body. There is no specific exposure length or level that can be used as a baseline for everyone. Every person’s body responds to asbestos, like any other substance, uniquely. Therefore, while exposure to asbestos can cause any number of symptoms, it is best to consult your physician if you suspect you have been exposed.
What you should know about Asbestos
Asbestos is a group of fibrous minerals that were mined and widely used in a variety of products.
Because asbestos is heat and fire resistant, it was used in many types of building materials and home products for years.
Examples of products include attic and wall insulation, roofing shingles, hot water pipes coated with asbestos, heat-resistant fabrics, linoleum, dry wall, dry wall mud/texture, popcorn ceiling texture etc.
