5. Asbestos Safety and Referrals
During water damage restoration, especially in older buildings, the presence of asbestos can pose serious health risks. According to the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC), all commercial buildings, regardless of age, must be tested for asbestos before any restoration work begins. Asbestos, commonly used in construction materials before the 1980s, can become airborne when disturbed. While Kingsley Water Damage Restoration does not perform asbestos testing, we will refer you to qualified specialists who can handle the testing and safe removal. Proper asbestos testing is crucial to ensure the safety of your property and its occupants, preventing harmful exposure.
Importance of Asbestos Testing
Asbestos testing is essential in commercial water damage restoration for several reasons:
- Health Risks: Asbestos fibers, when disturbed, can become airborne and inhaled, leading to serious health issues such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.
- Regulatory Compliance: The DHEC requires asbestos testing for all commercial buildings, regardless of age. Proper testing ensures compliance with these regulations, avoiding potential legal and financial repercussions.
- Safe Restoration: Identifying and managing asbestos ensures that the restoration process is conducted safely, protecting both workers and building occupants.
