Remodeling/New Construction

Nail heads & seams are filled with joint compound (mud) which is made up of   Gypsum calcium carbonate mica and crystalline silica.


Only 2-5% of the material is Crystalline Silica. However this material is listed as a serious health hazard. When the dried mud is sanded the particles are small enough to be inhaled. Prolonged or repeated inhalation of crystalline silica can cause silicosis, a seriously disabling and fatal lung disease. In fact it is classified as a known human carcinogen.

A report by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health
Stated there can be dangerously high amounts of dust from sanding and other drywall work. In fact the report went on to say that even when the dust amounts are within recommended limits, they may not be safe.
