Environmental Cleanup in Arlington, VA for Homes with Asbestos

Environmental Cleanup in Arlington VA

In Arlington, VA, environmental cleanup issues affect both businesses and homes. Though big cleanup sites involving rivers and old factories make the news, most cleanup projects affect older homes and commercial buildings. This is especially true when it comes to asbestos, a material that was used in construction for decades before it was legally stopped in the 1970s.

That means hundreds of thousands of homeowners and business owners live and work in structures that contain asbestos. In most cases, it’s not a problem. The danger happens when people breathe in asbestos dust and tiny fibers. These are released as buildings deteriorate with age are damaged or during a remodel or renovation. The changes these cause result in the release of asbestos fibers into the environment. As people breathe, they absorb the asbestos in the air, which can cause serious, even fatal, illnesses.

What should you do if you suspect that your home or business space has asbestos floating free? Experts recommend these four steps:

  • Stay out of the areas that you suspect has asbestos fibers.
  • Call in the help of a licensed, certified asbestos remediation contractor, like Envirotex, which is approved by the Environmental Protection Agency.
  • Have the contractor do a thorough inspection and test for the presence of asbestos.
  • Arrange for its removal and remediation and decontamination.

Asbestos testing and removal aren’t do-it-yourself projects. This is one of the most serious of all environmental cleanup issues in Arlington, VA. There is far too much danger than you will breathe in the toxic fibers yourself. And while you’re poking around and trying to figure out where it is and how to get it out, you can actually make the problem worse by inadvertently releasing more fibers into the environment.
