Where Can Asbestos Be Found in Your Home or Office?

Asbestos was commonly used in construction materials due to its strength and heat-resistant properties before the risks were well-known. While modern construction has eliminated asbestos, older homes and buildings, especially those built before 1986, are likely to contain hazardous materials. Below are some common areas where you might find asbestos:

• Attic and wall insulation: Often found in homes built before the 1980s.
• Vermiculite: Insulation containing vermiculite, especially Zonolite, is a frequent source of asbestos exposure.
• Vinyl flooring and tiles: Older 9”x9” tiles and some 12”x12” tiles may contain asbestos, as well as the mastic (glue) used to attach them.
• Wood floors near wood-burning stoves: The underlayment and surrounding materials may contain asbestos for heat resistance.
• Old hot water pipes: Pipe insulation from homes built before the 1980s may contain asbestos.
• Oil and coal furnaces: Older heating systems, especially furnaces, may contain asbestos insulation.
• Heat-resistant fabrics: Fabrics used in heat-resistant clothing and materials may contain asbestos.
  

The Health Risks of Asbestos Exposure

Exposure to asbestos fibers can cause severe health issues, including lung diseases like Mesothelioma, Asbestosis, and lung cancer. When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, such as during renovation or demolition, tiny fibers can be released into the air. These fibers, when inhaled, can become lodged in the lungs, causing long-term damage. The risks are even greater if the asbestos-containing materials are in poor condition and begin to deteriorate.



It’s important to test and remove asbestos as soon as possible to prevent exposure. Our team at Greene Environmental Services follows strict safety procedures to minimize risks and ensure the safe removal of asbestos from your property.
