Is Asbestos in Your Home?

Because asbestos was used in so many residential, commercial and industrial applications, it can be found inside many older buildings. It was often used as a siding material, pipe wrap, and insulation, among thousands of other applications. Although a known carcinogen, asbestos was widely used in thermal insulation products, until it was banned in 1975. However, according to EPA.gov, it can still be found in numerous items such as:

• Cement Corrugated Sheets
• Pipeline Wrap
• Roofing Felt
• Vinyl Floor Tile
• Cement Shingle
• Exterior Siding
• Millboard
• Cement Pipes
• Non-Roofing Coatings
• Roof Coatings
