Asbestos is Still a Threat

    If you've watched daytime TV you have seen the countless advertisements for mesothelioma victims to contact Joe Attorney. These lawyers and their suits have spanned well over four decades now. While the victims of this serious form of cancer need to be taken care of, many lawyers have found new ways to claim their bounty.
    When the illness first appeared and the coloration to asbestos had been discovered, lawyers made them into class action suits. They would find multiple parties affected by the disease, bundle them together and go after a company that they had in common. Sometimes parties in suits were classified as “non-malignant” and still awarded. These suits put hundreds of companies into bankruptcy. Soon courts caught on to what many attorneys were doing and decided that they could not make such grand cases against companies. Recently these firms have taken a new direction for their cause.
    About 90% of people with lung cancer are smokers, which is no surprise to anyone alive today. In 1966 cigarettes were branded with “Cigarette smoking may be hazardous to your health”, and they've only increased in severity since. In the past few years, a few lawyers have decided to link lung cancer with asbestos even if the victim is a smoker. Several lawyers state that smoking and asbestos exposure cause an even greater catalyst for cancer, but there is not enough evidence to support it. It has turned these peoples' illnesses into a bit of a circus of litigation.

    None of this takes away from the seriousness of mesothelioma, lung cancer, or the dangers of asbestos exposure. If you suspect or are unsure if your home or office building may contain asbestos then it is essential to your health to have it inspected. A Mac. Contracting is an asbestos abatement company in Rockland County with years of experience and knowledge. If you have any questions or concerns about asbestos in your home or building, A Mac.

Asbestos Risk and Removal

Recently Democratic Rep Carolyn McCarthy was diagnosed with lung cancer. The firm of Weitz & Luxenberg filed a class action suit on behalf of McCarthy accusing more than 70 different companies of potentially contaminating the congresswoman. There are a few things that the suit fails to mention though, McCarthy smoked heavily for 40 years – and she never worked with the cancer linked fibre.
The suit claims she cam into contact with asbestos when she was a youth and her father and brother worked as boiler makers. Citing that the caustic fibres attached to both men's clothing. Some of the companies named in the suit include Goodyear Tire, Con Ed and Pfizer. Her smoking habits were never formally mentioned in the suit filed.
The National Cancer Institute says there are factors that play in the risk of developing any asbestos related diseases:

  • Dose – how much asbestos an individual was exposed to asbestos
  • Duration – how long an individual was exposed or susceptible
  • Size, shape and chemical makeup of the asbestos fibres (The US EPA defines six different mineral types as asbestos)
  • Source of the exposure
  • Individual risk factors, such as smoking and other pre-existing lung diseases.

If you suspect that your home or commercial building may contain asbestos it is essential that you contact an asbestos removal company immediately. A Mac. Contracting offers 100% safes asbestos removal in NY backed by over 25 years of experience.

Commercial Asbestos Removal

The 1980's were a special time in American history. There were many keys to making this decade standout, but some did not stand the test of time. Try telling kids these days that people used to grow sea monkeys in their house, then explain how disappointing they really were. Explain that before Xbox and Playstation, it was Nintendo and Atari. Now try explaining how George Michael and Boy George. Explain that 30 years ago, the device that everyone seems to have now, was a monster of a brick that you couldn't even fit in your pocket, it had a handle. Most things from the 80's we thought would last forever. Believe it or not, asbestos was one of those things.
I'm sure no one got that excited over the use of insulation; asbestos was a material that many Americans, and people worldwide, believed was safe. Like most of the things from the 80's we now realize how wrong we were. Asbestos is a very dangerous material that is still found in many buildings that were constructed during this time.
Due to its price, fire resistance and insulation qualities, asbestos was used in many commercial and industrial buildings. If you believe that your building may contain asbestos, you should contact a commercial asbestos removal company immediately. A Mac. Contracting specializes in asbestos removal for commercial and residential buildings, ensuring complete asbestos removal from your property.

Asbestos Awareness Month in Australia is This November

This November is the inaugural Asbestos Awareness Month across Australia, where 1 in 3 households has dangerous levels of asbestos that is causing harm to the people living there. Australia is a major source for asbestos mining and saw an incredible amount of structural asbestos use as the country developed in the late 20th century. Middle-aged residents of Australia are being diagnosed with asbestos-related problems at an increasing rate, facilitating a nationwide month of awareness about the symptoms of the deadly diseases that exposure to asbestos can cause.

Although asbestos is an issue throughout the world, Canada, South Africa and Australia are three of the biggest hot spots for illness and health disorders associated with this mineral. The cheap and durable qualities of asbestos made it a popular building material in growing countries, but the price is now being paid as the public learns more about the harmful characteristics of asbestos.

A Mac Contracting is a New Jersey asbestos removal company with experience safely removing asbestos throughout the tri-state area. There is still plenty of asbestos in the world, and you should always take steps to remove this chemical if you believe it is present in your home or business.

Asbestos is very harmful. It is strongly advised that if you have asbestos in your home or business to call a professional and not try to remove it by yourself. Here are some facts about asbestos:

  • Asbestos is mined from a group of thin and strong naturally fibrous minerals.
  • There are several types of asbestos, including Chrysotile, Amosite, Crocidolite, Tremolite, Anthophyllite and Actinolite.
  • Although all forms of asbestos are considered to be dangerous, more forms of cancer and Mesothelioma have been linked to Chrysotile than any other form.
  • Asbestos is mined from the ground using an open-pit method. It originally resembles coarse wood and is refined into fluffy fibers. Most asbestos is found in Canada, South Africa, Australia and former Soviet Union countries.

Asbestos Removal

As one school in Chapel Hill, NC found out asbestos is still a real and powerful threat. During an already arduous mold removal process at Chapel Hill High School, the floor tiles at the school were found to contain asbestos. The parents became alarmed when photos started circulating among students at the school. The photo depicted a classroom that was sealed off to students and staff for fear of asbestos contamination. As a precaution the crew working in the school took air quality tests that showed there was no threat to students or staff. The asbestos removal will continue on the weekends only, not when students are in school. The school system said it issues a notice of asbestos containing materials at its schools every year but admits older school buildings like Chapel Hill High have become a problem.
Sometimes there are wake up calls, that remind us what happened in the past still has the potential to haunt us. Despite being banned by the EPA in 1989, many facilities built after this date still contained them. Contractors were allowed to use the remaining asbestos they had in inventory. If you suspect your commercial building may contain asbestos, it is important you call a licensed asbestos removal company today. A. Mac Contracting is a North NJ asbestos removal company with the experience and knowledge to assure your building is safe and asbestos free.

Asbestos Abatement North NJ

Over two years since Hurricane Irene flooded Hightstown’s Borough Hall, an architect has estimated that damages will cost seven million dollars due to asbestos and mold. The structure has been shut down since Hurricane Irene had flooded it in August 2011.

Since then, the administrative staff has been working in the break room of the public works building and the police have been working in the former Lucas Electric building. Asbestos removal follows very strict protocol due to its highly toxic nature. It is likely that the entire building will need to be replace.

Although asbestos was banned over three decades ago, many buildings still contain the toxic material. It is a difficult and dangerous process that should only be handled by professionals. A Mac Contracting Inc is a professional company that handles asbestos abatement in Bergen County NJ as well as several other asbestos removal services, including:

Hazards of DIY Home Repairs and Asbestos

More and more people are taking a do-it-yourself approach to home renovations. While the caustic fiber is no longer being produced or installed in the US, there are still plenty of places it could be. While the DIY approach is becoming popular due to lower costs and more creativity, it could become a potential health risk and experts strongly advise against it. If you suspect that your home or business contains asbestos, it is important to contact a professional asbestos abatement company in South Hackensack NJ.

Many people do not realize how hazardous a small amount of asbestos can be. These are precautions that a responsible asbestos removal company must take to ensure safety:

  • Use protective equipment. This includes asbestos abatement respirators. They can be found at most of your big box home improvement stores. 
  • Make sure to double bag all of your waste. This will prevent more particles from escaping and any chance of breakage.
  • Do not sweep up dust and debris. Use a Type H (shop vac) cleaner or wet rags. This will prevent any more dust from becoming airborne.
  • Do not eat or drink. In any area where you are doing home renovations, there is a potential health risk and is also unsanitary. 
  • Do not use power tools. If you suspect an area may contain asbestos, using power tools will create too much dust and debris.

If you know or suspect that an area of your home may contain asbestos it is imperative that you contact a licensed asbestos abatement company. A Mac. Contracting Inc. is a professional and licensed asbestos abatement company in South Hackensack NJ that will ensure that any DIY home renovations are safer for you and your family.

  • Asbestos-related lung cancer – Appears to be the same lung cancer caused by smoking and other factors.
  • Asbestosis – A serious condition. That usually occurs after heavy exposure to asbestos.
  • Pleural thickening – This is a problem that generally happens after prolonged asbestos exposure where the lung's lining thickens and swells.
   Asbestos was banned in most building materials in the late 70's early 80's, although it can still be found in some products such as car brake-pads. If your home was built before 1981, there may be a chance that you'll need an asbestos removal company in NJ.
