He reports, &#8221; While no asbestos is good asbestos, the mere presence of asbestos in a home is not generally considered an &ldquo;issue&rdquo;. The issue is when the asbestos containing materials (ACM) are disturbed. Disturbing the material allows it to become airborne and this leads to breathing these asbestos fibers into our lungs with resulting potential health effects.<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-an29m\" class=\"mm8Nw _1j-51 iWv3d _1FoOD _3M0Fe aujbK iWv3d public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Whenever a renovation project (or a mitigation project if your home has a moisture issue, etc.) involves taking down walls\/ceilings or removing old vinyl flooring, these areas should be tested before they are disturbed. <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps?cid=16705588163799956913\" target=\"_blank\">Asbeston inspections<\/a> are recommended whenever in doubt.<\/p>\n<p id=\"viewer-5t5et\" class=\"mm8Nw _1j-51 iWv3d _1FoOD _3M0Fe aujbK iWv3d public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 fixed-tab-size public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Some types of materials containing asbestos are visually fairly obvious, as in the case of old heating pipe insulation, others are not obvious from a simple visual inspection, such as plaster, drywall, vinyl flooring, and ceiling tiles.
