Asbestos Abatement

Asbestos is a mineral that has been used as a binder and insulation material in thousands of building materials including:

Pipe and Boiler Insulations

Sprayed on fireproofing

Toweled or sprayed on acoustical textures (popcorn ceilings)

Plaster, drywall and drywall taping and texturing compounds

Cement shingles and panels used in roofing and siding

Cement water pipes

Window glazing putty

Sheet and vinyl floor coverings

Roofing materials

Mastics and adhesives

Fabrics

Friction materials (brakes and clutches)

Because of its versatility, strength, and resistance to heat and chemicals, it has been called the "Magic Mineral". Unfortunately, it also causes severe health problems, including terminal respiratory diseases and cancer.

Proper identification and abatement of asbestos materials is a must. EPA and OSHA have strict guidelines for worker training and proper abatement techniques.

We have successfully completed projects ranging from a few hundred dollars to over one million dollars in size.
