Bulk Asbestos Sampling
We’ll be happy to travel to you in Spring Hill or anywhere in Tennessee to sample materials that may contain asbestos, like ceiling tiles, floor tiles, popcorn ceilings, dry wall, insulation. Samples of building materials are taken and sent to a certified lab for analysis.
Banned For Your Family’s Health
Suspected materials should be tested before disturbing them in any way. Abatement should be performed if those materials will be disturbed, after proper asbestos inspection. Asbestos Abatement should be performed by a trained and certified asbestos removal company.
Asbestos Removal & Clearance Testing
If asbestos was found and was removed – also called asbestos abatement or asbestos remediation – a clearance test is performed to ensure there are not residual asbestos fibers in the air.
Asbestos Spill Delineation
When structural materials have been disturbed or damaged and then found to contain asbestos, how far asbestos containing dust is spread needs to be answered. This asbestos dust is hazardous to your health.
What Spring Hill should know about Asbestos
What does Asbestos look like?
Asbestos looks like many things. It is a group of fibrous minerals that were mined and widely used in a variety of products, especially before the mid-1980s.
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.
What are the Health Risks of Asbestos Exposure in Tennessee?
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.
