Asbestos was a popular building material because it is naturally occurring, thus heat resistant and an electrical insulator.
It is important to avoid disturbing any product that may contain Asbestos. Fibres are easily inhaled once they become airborne.
Serve Group strive to provide the safest methods of hazmat removal, focusing on efficiency, low cost, excellent communication, customer service and compliance.
