FAQ
What are the health risks of asbestos exposure?
In good condition, Asbestos Containing Materials do not pose a direct problem. However, when ACMs are disturbed and asbestos fibers are released, they are embedded into the lungs and body, resulting in increased risk for various health problems.
Asbestos-related conditions and diseases are latent by years or decades (taking a long time to surface). They include:
- Mesothelioma, lung cancer, other cancers
- Asbestosis, atelectasis, pleural plaques, and other pulmonary issues
- Potential of secondary exposure and related illness in family members or co-habitants.
Do I have to hire professionals for asbestos removal in New Jersey?
It is illegal to subject untrained workers to asbestos exposure in NJ. Laws and regulations by EPA, OSHA, and the state of New Jersey require all asbestos-related work to be conducted by a certified asbestos contractor with the correct PPE, training, and relevant licenses.
If you know there is asbestos in the area of your home that you are planning to disturb, you need to have it professionally abated before you can get a permit or hire a contractor to undertake the home renovation, construction, or demolition. It is illegal in New Jersey for any unlicensed person to do asbestos removal.
If you are unsure whether your home contains asbestos, you need to find out with a qualified inspection and test, so that you may plan accordingly before proceeding with your home project. The same is true for New Jersey commercial buildings.
Can I use a DIY asbestos testing kit or send samples to a lab?
It is highly unsafe to handle and disturb Asbestos Containing Material yourself as an un-trained person. These DIY asbestos testing methods do not provide the accuracy or safety of a professional test and inspection, and they endanger yourself and those around you.
They also don’t provide full clearance stating that your project area has been found to be asbestos-safe so that you can continue with your building project and permits. AAA Lead Professionals can also help you with any NJ legal forms.
How much does asbestos removal cost?
It is difficult to generalize about the cost of asbestos removal services. Each project has unique considerations, such as the square footage of your home and the types of material affected.
Your trained professional will require different tools, process of asbestos abatement, and resources. The length of time needed is also variable depending on several factors. AAA Lead Professionals takes every step to ensure your asbestos services are completed effectively and efficiently, without sacrificing quality.
