We have a room in our house which we want to change the existing carpet with an engineered wood floor. I found out today that under the carpet are the old 9" asbestos floor tiles. I'm only looking at approx 200 sq. ft. The floor company won't touch it. I've done some searches on line and it looks like the floor itself does not pose a danger since the tiles are not pliable, but in the removal process may release hazardous dust etc... So who do I call, the EPA? And what am I looking at as far as cost to remove?
BTW, this was not disclosed by the seller and a part of me wants to pursue legal action? Do I have a case?
