Frequently Asked Questions

At ASA-MMP, we take pride in offering exceptional, personalized property restoration services to our clients and businesses. We value transparency, so we've gathered answers to some of the most frequently asked questions!

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was once widely used in construction for its heat resistance and durability. However, when disturbed, asbestos fibers can become airborne and easily inhaled, leading to serious health issues such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis due to their carcinogenic nature.

To determine if your property contains asbestos, it's crucial to conduct a professional asbestos inspection. Trained specialists can take samples of suspected materials and analyze them in a certified laboratory for asbestos content. DIY testing is not recommended due to the potential health risks involved in handling asbestos-containing materials.

Health risks associated with asbestos exposure include respiratory problems such as difficulty breathing, coughing, and chest pain. Prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to more severe conditions such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and scarring of the lungs (asbestosis). It's vital to address any asbestos contamination promptly to minimize health risks.

It's strongly advised against attempting to remove asbestos yourself due to the high health risks involved. Asbestos removal requires specialized training, equipment, and safety protocols to ensure proper containment and disposal of hazardous materials. Hiring a licensed asbestos abatement contractor like ASA-MMP is the safest and most effective way to address asbestos contamination in your property.
