I am worried about mesothelioma… From lung cancer by inhaling asbestos bit. I just can not touch the asbestos… Hoping not to disrupt its going to be safer but now I have a problem with the boiler and to replace it, and it means relating to the asbestos problem. exhalation.

When the team is finished the air is checked , and if there is residual amounts they continue until it is safe and clear. That is what they do and there are no better people to do it. You could never even come close to what they do.

Listen to Talon. Trust the experts, and follow their recommendations. They know what they’re doing and won’t allow anything to happen which would endanger you in any way. Just make sure whoever you hire to do the work is fully licensed AND trained.

Asbestos is a problem when it is “disturbed”. If you don’t mess with it, and if it is not flaculant, that is fluffy and falling apart, then it isn’t a danger.
The guys who remove it wet it so it doesn’t get airborne.
Asbestos is dangerous but not that dangerous.

Asbestos is nasty, nasty stuff if it gets airborne, so this is definitely not a material you want to take chances with. Your mitigation contractor can advise you as to whether or not you should find other lodging while the work goes on. Here’s what you need to know about asbestos and asbestos cleanup:
