Until the 1980’s, many types of building products and insulation materials used in homes contained asbestos. Asbestos can be found in drywall, drywall compound, attic insulation, linoleum flooring, ceiling stipple, exterior stucco and various other products. You should never attempt to remove Asbestos on your own as it has the potential to cause harm to your lungs, resulting in cancer and many times even death.
