Removing asbestos

Asbestos is very harmful to your health when you inhale asbestos fibers. For example, asbestos may occur in corrugated sheets (rooftops of barns and garages), vinyl (or old) floor covering (asbestos-containing underlayer) and chimneys or air ducts (at the heater or central heating system, ventilation duct). Do you want to remove asbestos? Than you need to make a demolition report, because you need to have permission to remove asbestos. Even if you do this with a certified company.
