Asbestos Containing Items
|
In the early 70s and before, many building materials contained asbestos to help with durability and insulation properties. Asbestos can commonly be found in insulation, heating equipment, flooring, drywall, cement, paint, shingles, siding and more. These materials should not be tested nor handled by the resident, but a certified professional should be contacted. For more information, please visit governmental and non-profit educational websites.
