I'm worried sick! Our home was built in the 1950s, and our laundry/storage room has asbestos tile in it. We are planning to put peel-and-stick lineoleum tiles over it, but there are a few broken pieces of tile lying around and I'm really worried about cleaning them up. Also, the tile on the two stairs has worn completely down.
First, I'm worred about cleaning up the pieces and debris so we can install the new floor. I'm also so worried about asbestos fibers we may have been exposed to since we moved in last summer. We walk through the laundry room all the time--over the areas that have been worn through--and I'm concerned that we've been releasing fibers and touching it with our feet for the past several months. Should we have our home tested? How should we go about cleaning up the broken tiles (it's a small amount)? Thank you so much for your help!
