Even minor asbestos exposure can lead to serious health concerns for yourself and your family. While the presence of asbestos is fairly common, we will provide an estimate to remove the materials containing asbestos. We are trained to safely remove asbestos from your property without putting you or your family at risk of exposure.

Asbestos Removal Process

Restoration 1 utilizes a thorough asbestos abatement process, which includes:

• Sealing the affected area. Our number 1 priority is to prevent the spread of any asbestos contamination.

• Removal of asbestos materials. We carefully remove the affected area by following strict guidelines set forth by OSHA, EPA and CDPHE.  Our technicians wear protective equipment and respirators.

• Cleaning the contaminated area. The asbestos contaminated site must be thoroughly cleaned to ensure all traces of asbestos are removed. Our equipment includes special HEPA filtered vacuums, filtration equipment and cleaners to meticulously eliminate asbestos fibers.

Why Would Asbestos Be Present?

Asbestos can be discovered when a home or business has experienced a disaster, such as a fire, flood or other water damage event. It can also be discovered during renovation or remodeling projects. It is often found in the insulation or building materials that were used at the time a particular structure was built. Testing for asbestos should be a priority whenever there is a plan to replace ceilings, flooring, drywall, heating or plumbing systems.

Asbestos and Health Concerns

No amount of asbestos exposure is considered safe. When exposed to asbestos-containing materials, related diseases may not arise for many years. Most exposure comes from inhaling airborne asbestos fibers. This can occur during the installation of asbestos-containing products, when renovating or remodeling, or when an asbestos-containing product deteriorates and releases tiny fibers into the air.

When tiny asbestos fibers are disturbed and become airborne, they can easily be inhaled. Once inside the lungs, they become trapped and, over time, cause inflammation, scarring, and even genetic damage (cellular mutation). The fibers can also damage the lining of the stomach and intestinal tract if they are ingested. While diseases tend to develop from heavy exposure over an extended period, no amount of asbestos exposure is considered safe.
