What is Asbestos?

Asbestos is a mineral form that readily separates into fibers that are both strong and resistant to heat. In San Diego, properties built during the peak usage years of asbestos from the 1960s to 1978 might be at risk, necessitating professional asbestos testing services. Asbestos was used in several construction products in the U.S, most popularly from the 1960s-1978. Properties built at any time in the U.S, including San Diego, may, however, contain asbestos from the original build or repairs. It has been discovered that the asbestos fibers present in construction materials that may be breathed in when airborne have been linked with several lung diseases and cancer. Asbestos fibers, when intact and not in our airborne dust, typically do not pose a risk.

Where is asbestos commonly found?

Asbestos is commmonly used in the following construction materials:

• Duct insulations and wraps,
• Pipe Insulation,
• Water heater concrete flue pipes,
• Carpet glues,
• Fireproofing,
• Ceiling tiles & glues,
• Window putty/glazing,
• and more…

San Diego residents concerned about asbestos exposure should seek professional asbestos testing services to identify and mitigate any potential risks in their homes or commercial properties.

Why is asbestos dangerous?

Asbestos fibers are microscopic and cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted. Additionally, asbestos exposure does not cause any immediate symptoms, so it is possible for people to inhale or swallow asbestos dust without knowing. In San Diego, where older buildings may still contain asbestos, it’s crucial to have regular asbestos inspections and testing conducted by certified professionals.
