As far back as the 1800s, home builders in the United States used asbestos for purposes ranging from insulation to fireproofing. These days, however, its use is severely restricted, with numerous studies showing asbestos can cause serious health problems including lung cancer. Asbestos can still be found in older buildings, most commonly in ceiling and flooring tiles, shingles, cement products and heat-resistant fabrics. Don’t leave your family’s health to chance!
