MOLD AND ASBESTOS REMOVAL
What is Asbestos? And When Do I Need Asbestos Testing?
Many older homes and commercial buildings contain asbestos, which was used in a variety of building materials until the early 1980s. Asbestos was used in over 3,000 building materials and consumer products due to its strength and insulation qualities. Common asbestos containing materials (ACM) include acoustic and textured wall and ceiling treatments (such as popcorn ceilings), floor tiles, sheet vinyl flooring, drywall materials, plaster, stucco, roofing, and pipe and tank insulation.
Most asbestos issues occur after damage to the material during an event such as a fire, flood, or earthquake; or during a remodel. When a building material is suspected to contain asbestos, state and federal laws require that building owners or contractors must have the suspect materials tested for asbestos and lead paint.
What Can We Do to Help Prevent Asbestos Exposure?
Asbestos exposure needs to be prevented at all costs. Whether the asbestos is found in a commercial or a residential building, steps should be taken to ensure that the inhabitants are protected from getting exposed to its fibers. To ensure this, the owners of the homes or offices must regulate and maintain the levels of asbestos in their respective spaces. Moreover, it is also necessary that a controlled work environment is established wherein the asbestos fibers are contained and don’t pose a threat to the employees.
The best way to deal with this issue, however, is to invest in asbestos removal. It is the only sure-fire method of preventing asbestos exposure. If you suspect asbestos contamination in your home or commercial building, please do not hesitate to call Bibi Remodeling Inc., your #1 choice for asbestos abatement and hazardous waste removal in Southern California.
What is Mold? Where is it Most Commonly Found in The Home?
Mold is the name given to a class of fungi. They are found abundantly in nature and are usually beneficial for downgrading organic matter. However, when they find residence in buildings and homes, they become a potential health hazard. Molds usually thrive on moisture and can grow quite quickly if they are not controlled at an earlier stage.
The damp areas of the home where there is a lot of moisture are the perfect breeding grounds for molds. For instance, the shower and bathrooms are an ideal place for mold formation. Moreover, basements, attics and crawl spaces within floors or walls are also among the spots where molds are most commonly found in the home.
