What is Asbestos?
Asbestos is a mineral that consists of very fine, microscopic, needle-shaped fibers. The fibers are so small that you cannot see them unless the concentration in the air is very heavy. Asbestos is strong, resists heat, acids, friction, and is virtually indestructible; therefore, it is an excellent material for many uses. Asbestos becomes a health hazard only when these materials crumble, fall apart, are damaged or ripped. When asbestos materials are damaged the fibers become air born where they may stay suspended for a long period of time. The fibers can then be inhaled and become lodged deeply in the lungs.

“Just wanted you to understand how very thankful we are for everything you are doing for us. We havent had anyone help us and look out for us like you have. It takes a very special person to do what you are doing, My father said just before he died that there would be someone that would come into my life to help me with his affairs. At that time I didnt understand what he was trying to say, but now I do. Again, thank you very much.”
