While it is up to individuals to limit their intake of alcohol (we certainly implore you to seriously consider the cancer risks associated with over-consumption) our professional asbestos removal service can help eliminate the other carcinogen from your home.
Homes that were built more than 30 years ago (before the asbestos was known to be a carcinogen) are likely to have products containing this deadly substance. At the times those homes were built, asbestos was used in a number of things including cement and plastics, insulation, roofing, fireproofing, ceiling and floor tiles, paints, and vermiculite-containing garden items.
