Selecting an Asbestos Abatement Contractor Requires Prioritizing Strict Safety Protocols and Proven Experience
Commercial and industrial asbestos abatement companies demonstrate considerable variation in technical proficiency, capability and service scope. While many small firms focus on residential or smaller-scale asbestos removal projects, Enviro-Vac is equipped to deliver comprehensive solutions for numerous large-scale operations simultaneously. Methodologies, project parameters, capabilities and experience with additional hazardous materials and services can also differ substantially among providers. For instance, Enviro-Vac® has specialized in industrial vacuum services, asbestos, lead and hazardous materials abatement since 1976. The companies teams of cross-trained and certified asbestos workers are also highly skilled in installing negative pressure containments, frequently utilizing fire-rated shrink-wrap.
To uphold rigorous standards of quality and impartiality, Enviro-Vac consistently engages independent third-party agencies for air monitoring, thereby ensuring ongoing reliability and integrity of results.
