Asbestos is generally safe if it remains intact and undisturbed. However, aging, renovations, or damage can release hazardous fibers. It’s best to consult a professional to assess the risks.

DIY asbestos removal is highly discouraged due to the health risks and strict regulations surrounding handling and disposal. It’s safer and legally compliant to hire certified professionals like TruBlu Solutions, Inc. In most cases, only owners of Single-Family Residential Dwellings (SFRD) can remove asbestos without a permit if it is their primary residence. However, for commercial buildings, DIY asbestos removal is not allowed. This is due to the higher risk of asbestos exposure in larger, more complex structures, and the need for specialized equipment and expertise to ensure safe removal. Professional asbestos abatement services are required for commercial properties to comply with safety regulations and protect the health of occupants. CALL A SPECIALIST BEFORE DOING ANY REMOVAL!
