Asbestos Abatement
Asbestos is a gate. Before a pre-1980 building can be renovated, leased, sold or demolished, regulated material has to come out — under containment, with notification filed, and with independent clearance at the end where it is required. We build the containment, remove the material wet, and hand over a complete job file.
Most asbestos calls start the same way: a survey came back positive, or a renovation stopped because someone opened a wall. From there the sequence is fixed — notification, containment, controlled removal, then independent clearance before anyone else works in the space. The cost of getting that sequence wrong is not a fine, it is a stopped job and a contaminated building.
The file matters as much as the containment. Notification, containment logs, manifests and, where clearance is required, the independent clearance letter all land in one job record — which is what an owner, a general contractor or a carrier actually needs when the scope is questioned later.
What the scope covers
- Full containment removal
- Pipe insulation and fitting removal
- Flooring, mastic and sheet vinyl removal
- Popcorn and acoustic ceiling texture removal
- Plaster, board and transite removal
- Waste packaging, labeling, manifest coordination and disposal
Common questions
Asbestos Abatement, answered.
- How long does notification take?
- It is a fixed waiting period after the filing, and it runs before mobilization. The most common reason an abatement job starts late is that nobody built the notification window into the schedule.
- Do you do the clearance yourselves?
- No, and no contractor should. Independent third-party clearance is what makes the result defensible. The party clearing the work is never the party that did it.
- Can I stay in the building?
- It depends on the scope and the containment. For a single-room scope in a larger building, often yes. For whole-house work, no. We will tell you which one you are looking at during the walkthrough.
