The Emotional Worth of Your Possessions

Your belongings are more than simply things; they also hold sentimental value and memories.

Family Heirlooms: Family heirlooms frequently contain years' worth of tradition and history. These priceless artifacts can be restored with the aid of contents cleaning, assuring they can continue to be passed down through the family.

Images and Keepsakes: Images capture specific moments in time, whereas mementos preserve the essence of experiences. These objects may be salvaged by our contents cleaning services, protecting your memories and the tales they contain.

Art and Collectibles: Expensive works of art and memorabilia are more than simply wise financial decisions; they are a representation of your hobbies and passions. You can keep the sentiment and value attached to these products by cleaning the contents.

The Benefits of Contents Cleaning in Real Life

Beyond the sentimental factor, there are several reasons for why contents cleaning is crucial:

Cost-Efficiency: Replacing all of your damaged possessions can be expensive. A cheap solution that might help you save money by recovering materials you thought were lost is content cleansing.

Faster Recovery: As soon as a tragedy hits, you want to get back to business as usual. Professional contents cleaning shortens the time it takes to replace lost possessions and reduces stress by saving important items.

Asbestos Abatement Testing

• First, determine when your home, or building was constructed. Asbestos was banned by the US Government in 1978. Structures on Oahu may have used asbestos in the construction process through 1989. It's a good rule of thumb to have an asbestos abatement company test if you suspect asbestos.
• Second, see if there are signs of disturbed asbestos materials. Look for warning signs of degrading construction materials. Worn-out and disintegrating pipes, walls, insulation, vinyl flooring and other materials. When asbestos is undisturbed and intact, it can often be kept in place with minimal risk of exposure. But when it starts to break down and the fibers are released in the air, it becomes toxic.
• Third, call an asbestos testing or abatement company to have the materials tested. You can check for signs of asbestos on your own, but testing should be done by a certified professional using special equipment. If asbestos is present, hire a contractor to repair or remove the materials that contain it to ensure the safety of people using the building.
  

*Inspections should always be done if there are asbestos concerns.

Asbestos Removal

Removing asbestos-containing materials without testing beforehand is a more dangerous and intrusive. Once the asbestos is airborne, breathing the toxic material can cause scarring to the tissue of the lungs and even lead to cancer.

When you have a water damage to a home or structure, a demolition, or a renovation where asbestos is suspected - you must first have the materials tested to ensure safety.

Calling Licensed Asbestos Mitigation Companies

Asbestos abatement contractors are trained and licensed in handling asbestos. You could collect the sample on your own, but you would still have to give the samples to an EPA-certified laboratory.
