As if popcorn wasn't bad enough on its own, I've heard that stuff can sometimes be made from asbestos too
Many of them done from the 1960's to the 1980's in the US will have asbestos. It's fine as long as it stays behind the paint, but cutting/drilling into it is very dangerous.
Yup, the one in my basement is. I need to get a remediation quote. I'm estimating around $10~$15K for about 160 sqf.
That's new to me. I just know that asbestos is used as thermal isolation, this sitting right in the middle of the wall sandwiched in between 2 drywall sheets.
Asbestos was used in absolutely everything back then as it was cheap, plentiful, easy to work with and possess some great properties. If it wasn’t for the dangers we would still be using it.
not just sometimes. This guy should be suited up. Hello mesothelioma
