We are removing asbestos zonolite plus armstrong flooring on our newly purchased .5 mil home. Im super glad we did actual research instead of listening to uninformed content like this.

Always use 3m, NIOSH full face resperator

Omg, wtf are you doing? You know better! Lead by a safe example. This is not it.

...too late 😭

I just encapsulated an asbestos tile floor that was in good repair with epoxy garage floor coating. Ran several coats up to about 3mm and then used a moisture barrier and covered in LVP. Hopefully solved the issue.

Wow, you really need to learn about respirators before giving advice. Those respirators you've shown are great for asbestos work, but both would need the proper filter. You've shown them with black cartridges which filter out organic vapors. They do not stop particulates, such as asbestos. For asbestos, you need purple or magenta filters (P100/N100/R100). Yes, you have a particulate PRE filter on one cartridge, but that is not rated for asbestos. And an orange or lemon for fit testing? Come on. You are putting people at risk with this nonsense.

Would it be best to wet it down first?

Wow. That's crazy. $1000 to swap part and labor $1500 emergency call.

How often should you replace an ejector pump?

1) For a worker on a job, it is illegal and unsafe to use either of these respirators with a beard. Homeowners can do what they want, but they have to know that they will not be protected with that beard. 2) Both respirators he shows are for organic vapors, they is not effective or legal for asbestos dust, you need P100 or HEPA filter cartridges instead, 3) Using a lemon to test the fit is not great, there are better tests you can do just with your hands, which are still not sufficient, but better than a lemon.

Wow is this man still alive?

Does it have to be painted or sealed? We have asbestos tiles and are laying down flooring over them but I don't know if it's been sealed. They had carpet over them initially.

Renovating old kitchen, removing lower cabinets revealed massive amount of water damage. Dad started sawing the subfloor to see how many joists were affected. Then we saw there are asbestos tiles under on of the layers of flooring. He power sawed the heck out of it before we even knew. Dust everywhere. Hvac on. Like what now 😬😬😬

The epa says homeowners can remove asbestos,

Can I send you an email with some photos?

Nice,thanks!!

Any videos how to remove it instead

The tiles we found under carpet in my basement are in about the same condition as these. You messing with them makes me feel better. They scare me and it’s going to take months for us to save up enough money to get them abated.

Everyone has been exposed one way or another . The shit is still everywhere

In fact if your not certified for asbestos abatement, you shouldn't be removing that asbestos.

Dont touch that junk. Get it removed

Huh? So the pipes can get hot - 180 -200F. How long is rhat plastic going to last even with the insulation between it??!! And where your terminations at the exposed pipe - I'm sure that melting plastic smells good!

My mom house was built in 1970 through 1971. However years ago carpet was installed. My question is I wanted remove the vile, bacteria filled carpet with laminated wood floor. The said the floors needed to be tested for asbestos before they could the laminated flooring.

recently my bungalow flood with water due to loft pipe burst, after removing the laminate floor noticed there is asbestos flooring below with bitumen. Almost three weeks running dehumidifer, still mositure on it but it's good in shape.. can i install the flooring tiles, on top current absestos tiles ? is there health risk installing on soaked absestos tiles? kindly advise

dont touch it with your hands!!! you should be wearing ppe! very dangerous.

I know this video is from a few years ago but is touching the asbestos wrap/tape like you did dangerous? Does that release invisible fibers? I am asking because some people say not to touch it at all but I had a certified asbestos inspector touch mine in the basement.

Save big money at Menards! You must be from the midwest? Keep it up

Previous owner wrapped up, how can I be sure he didn't leave fibers to settle I was just on the basement floor, and what can I do about that?

i found some "chalky" white subsatnce on the pipes at my sons school, they inspected it said it wasnt asbestos.... what could it be, i so glad i was mistaken... but now im curious what it was.

So is it the tile or yhe black glue that has asbestos?

This is how non mentally challenged individuals remove asbestos if anyone is curious: th-cam.com/video/5f7medwuIMA/w-d-xo.html

Great post , replace before it goes out ........in my house for 25 years , no problem with pump but I replaced it in year 25 .

I really dislike dealing with those outlets. Although we don't have them here in Japan, so I only have to deal with them stateside. Japanese outlets tend to be either 2 plug sockets, or they will have a slot to plug in ground wires, and the power cable will have a green ground coming out of the 2 plug with a flat crescent moon shaped end bit of you need that. I don't believe I've seen the triple plug outlets except for appliances. Or at least here in Tokyo, Kyoto and western Japan are on a different power setup, so they might have different outlets too.

What happens if those pipes need to be replaced in the future?

Good info for a common project. Thanks for this

I will give you a SUBSCRIBE and check out some of your older videos. You gave a lot of good advice in those two minutes. Thanks.

What do you do if there is mold (not black mold) on the asbestos tile. Can you Bleach it before encapsulating it? Also can you seal the tile with something? Tile is in my kitchen and mold is on tiles near sink and dishwasher area. Thanks for your help.

Wonderful thank you for doing the hard work for us! I brought in a ripe and juicy pineapple into the kitchen forgetting to cut it for a few days that’s led to a disaster of fruit flies.

I live in a house with asbestos. It is covered up by tile but there are some holes in the grout. my grandparents have lived in it for 40 ish years and have zero health problems and I've lived in it since I was 1(19 now) I plan on taking it out when the house is fully mine.

i jumped out of my seat when he snapped that tile, lol

Are asbesto tile always that brittle?

Best to have it removed professionally.

On the left side of the mask you didnt have particle filter p3 on. only the right side . The coal filter for vapour isnt for asbestos

I am a realtor and its 1:48 am PSt studying about asbestos and I like the way he broke the tile, lol.

excellent information well told story.

No good.

All due respect, but you should NEVER even touch the stuff without a mask and gloves. And if you are going to touch it, you must wet it down, really soak it, drench it. Wet asbestos is relatively safe to work with. as long as it doesn't get airborne, you can safely remove it with water and gloves and tools. You scrape the wet stuff off, put it in a plastic bag, change gloves, put those gloves and the plastic bag in a second plastic bag and you are done. But touching dry asbestos for this video? Yikes. All you have to do now is rub your eye, touch your mouth/nose, or pick up a sandwich and eat it, and you have officially put enough asbestos into your system to kill you in another decade or two. Asbestosis takes as little as a spec, the size you can fit on a pin. I have had several co-workers die of it. Most worked with it a lot over the years, but a couple guys died of it and can't remember ever touching it, but knew it was on sites they'd worked. This stuff ought not to be touched. Really, wet it down first, please. ( I restore old houses for a living.)

ARE YOU STILL DOING A VIDEO ON ASBESTOS TAPE ON DUCT WORK?

How do I remove asbestos from concrete floor, that have carpet on top of it.

I baught my home 2007, and the Home Inspector didn't test the flooring. Today I decided to get an estimate for hardwood floors, and was told that all my floors are black slated tiles, so it's obvious that I have asbestos on my floors. Please help me? what can I do. I am also a senior citizen.
