We have asbestos in our Linoleum…now what?
We are remodeling our kitchen and on a hunch I decided to have our linoleum tested for asbestos before we just started ripping it up. Well, we tested it, and the glue did test positive for asbestos. People keep telling us there are ways of removal to “do it yourself,” however that really freaks me out. I don’t want to die of some kind of asbestos poisoning to save some bucks.
Has anyone done this themselves or faced this problem? How do you remove asbestos linoleum yourself?
Forgot to mention…there is already tile on top of the linoleum, so we can’t just layer new flooring over it. We have to pull of the tile…and the linoleum…
Your best bet would be to hire a professional to come in there and take care of that asbestos for you.
There are ways to DIY , but some cities will require a professional to do the work. Still if you choose to DIY it will be alot of work and there are alot of procedures you need to follow so make sure you do your research.
