Asbestos was widely used in home and office construction between 1920 and the 1980’s. To give you some indication of how widely used it was, it is estimated that some 80% of the buildings constructed prior to 1981 contain some level of asbestos.

It’s not hard to understand why it was so attractive. After all, it’s durable, long-lasting, has tremendous insulating properties and is extraordinarily fire resistant. Unfortunately, years later, it was also found to have not just dangerous properties, but lethal ones, which is why the EPA issued the Asbestos Ban and Phase Out Rule in 1989.
You’ve probably seen late-night infomercials talking about class-action mesothelioma lawsuits. That’s a particular debilitating form of cancer caused by asbestos exposure and only underscores the dangers that the material poses.
Since the EPA’s ban, businesses, government agencies, and individuals have been slowly having asbestos removed, but it’s not a simple process. While it doesn’t usually cause any problems if it’s left alone, disturbing it will inevitably release particles into the air that if inhaled can be quite dangerous. Even deadly.
Unfortunately, if you try to roof over the asbestos shingles on your Middleburg, VA home, they will almost certainly be disturbed, which is why you should definitely not try to remove them on your own.
Given the risks and dangers involved, the process requires expertise to handle safely. That’s where Envirotex comes in. Founded in 2000, we’ve quickly become the most respected environmental services company in the region, and our commitment to excellence is second only to our commitment to safety.
