What is Asbestos Abatement?

Asbestos abatement refers to the process of identifying, containing, and removing asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) from a building. While asbestos was commonly used in insulation, roofing, flooring, and drywall in the past, it’s now classified as an environmental hazard. This is because the material releases asbestos fibers that are toxic to humans. Proper asbestos removal is critical to avoid exposure, which can lead to diseases like mesothelioma and asbestosis.

Los Angeles Takes Environmental Laws Seriously

If you’re a California business owner, you might already be aware of the state’s strict safety protocols and regulations regarding asbestos. In particular, the city of Los Angeles is known to rigorously protect workers, customers, and the public. Here’s what businesses need to know:

01

Permits and Notifications

If your project disturbs more than 100 square feet of Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACMs), you’ll need to notify the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) at least 10 working days before we start your asbestos abatement.

02

Licensed Contractors Only

California requires that any asbestos abatement must be performed by contractors that are OSHA-certified and registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations (DIR). Hiring an unlicensed contractor can result in severe fines and project shutdowns.

03

Proper Disposal of Materials

Los Angeles and the state of California also regulate the removal process, as any waste must be transported to EPA-approved hazardous waste facilities. Your business is responsible for maintaining proper documentation and disposal compliance.

04

Penalties for Non-Compliance

Hiring trained professionals is always worth it, as violations can lead to fines exceeding $25,000 per day and even criminal charges for willful neglect.

The Asbestos Abatement Process

1. The Importance of an Asbestos Survey
California’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requires an asbestos survey prior to demolition or renovation services. This process must be performed by professional asbestos inspectors, and helps reveal the full extent of the problem for accurate removal. Visit California’s DIR website for more information.

2. Asbestos Inspection and Testing
Once we have the survey results, our certified inspectors conduct their own thorough tests to identify and confirm the presence of asbestos health hazards in your commercial building. We use the latest equipment to detect even hidden asbestos and fine asbestos dust.

3. Asbestos Containment
After we identify the extent of the problem, our team creates a containment area to prevent asbestos fibers from spreading. Personal protective equipment like negative air machines and HEPA filters help maintain a safe environment for those working inside the building.

4. Safe Asbestos Removal
Our asbestos contractors carefully remove the asbestos-containing materials, following safety protocols and local regulations. We handle all aspects of removal, including cutting, disposing, and replacing materials safely.

5. Asbestos Disposal
We ensure worker safety and compliance with regulations by safely disposing all asbestos containing waste at an approved hazardous materials’ facility. Our methods are fully approved by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and local laws.

6. Post-Removal Cleaning and Air Testing
After we complete our asbestos work, we conduct thorough cleaning of the affected areas and perform air quality testing to ensure no asbestos fibers remain.

Don’t delay asbestos removal — it’s a legal and health priority.
