"If you binge watch home improvement shows on TV like I do, the word, "asbestos" can send you and your budget into a cold sweat! William and his team at Laroue Environmental, LLC did a great job thoroughly explaining the asbestos testing process to me as well as my options should the results come back positive. As a first time home owner myself, the process of renovating can be a bit stressful. Working with Laroue Environmental, LLC was anything BUT stressful. If you do sign up for their testing services, you're in good hands! Good luck on your next home renovation project and stay safe out there!"

Customers say: True professional

"Paul was proactive in getting us scheduled and setting up with our popcorn ceiling removal. He also recommended someone to do the sample tests required before removal. I felt the cost they gave us was fair. We weren’t on location when the material was being removed but they did a good job of removing the popcorn ceiling and not causing too much damage / scraps to the drywall so the resurfacing afterwards went smoothly. The only thing that could have been better was no one actually came out to inspect the place until the actual start date at which point it was determined an additional area would have to be demoed and the cost would be slightly higher. In the end we were very happy with the result just would have liked to have avoided the last minute price increase as we were just moving into the place and budgets were tight after paying our down payment. Regardless the work was done precisely and cleanly. Had the air quality tested after asbestos removal and it came back clean! Would recommend these guys to anyone looking to remove their popcorn ceilings"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Currently, there is no federal licensing mandate for asbestos removal contractors. However, certain cities and states require certification and specialized training. For example, in New York, those handling asbestos must receive an Asbestos Handler Certification. The mandates dictating the necessary training or certifications vary based on state and local laws.

Abatement focuses on immediate hazard control while remediation encompasses a comprehensive cleanup and long-term safety strategy. Abatement refers specifically to reducing or eliminating the immediate hazard by removing or encapsulating it. It’s a targeted approach aimed solely at controlling asbestos risks. Remediation is a broader term that involves the entire process of addressing contamination to restore a safe environment. Remediation can include abatement, decontamination, air quality testing, and post-cleanup monitoring.

Duration varies, commonly from a few days to a week, based on building assessment.

No, but it’s common that they do. Gravity furnaces weren’t terribly efficient so wrapping either the ductwork in asbestos, the furnace itself, or both, was something done regularly. This allowed the system to retain more heat. At the time, this greatly enhanced the efficiency of the furnaces but it wasn’t until later that we became aware of just how carcinogenic and dangerous asbestos could be.

Scraping off asbestos siding is extremely dangerous. When asbestos is inert, it does not pose a risk, but once disturbed, the fibers enter the air that you breathe and can cause irreparable damage. Professionals may scrape it off, but they will have more protective equipment and specialized tools that most homeowners do not have on hand.
