Asbestos-Related Diseases and Cancers

Asbestos fibers can be released by abrasion, and when inhaled can aggravate lung tissues causing them to scar. This is the disease known as asbestosis and is a direct result of asbestos exposure. Several additional serious diseases have been linked to asbestos including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and various other related cancers. If your property was built before the early 1980's it is very important to have a professional asbestos inspection to avoid serious effects.
