Asbestos Removal
on Long Island, NY

The possible side effects of Asbestos, and why it should be removed professionally include:

• Asbestos fibers are extremely small and can become airborne when disturbed – increasing potential for ingestion or inhalation. 
• Inhaling asbestos fibers can cause a variety of illnesses, including pneumonitis, asbestosis, and mesothelioma.
• Long-term exposure to asbestos is directly linked to an increased risk of lung cancer. 
• Young children are particularly at risk due to their smaller lungs which can make them more susceptible to inhaling the fibers. 
• Individuals who work in professions that involve contacting asbestos products, such as construction workers, have an especially high chance of developing illnesses related to it. 
• Once ingested or breathed in, the harmful effects of asbestos cannot be reversed. 
• Even low levels of exposure to asbestos over time has been linked to various diseases and disorders. 
• Constant contact with certain types of asbestos material may also lead to skin irritation and rashes. 
• Demolition or renovation projects which disturb materials containing asbestos should always be done by certified professionals who understand proper safety protocols.
