Current rules and regulations state that a homeowner (i.e., the actual owner of the property) is allowed to remove asbestos from his/her home. Prior to doing so, you must check with all local, state, and federal agencies for proper transport and disposal methods for these materials. However, if you are not familiar with asbestos removal, we strongly recommend that as much research be done as possible prior to any impact of these regulated materials. Without doing so, there is a high probability that you could expose yourself, family, friends, or others to hazardous concentrations of asbestos. We never recommend that a homeowner perform removal activities themselves due to the possibility of exposure.
