"Erik and his professional team replied to my request for services on Angi promptly. Erick came to provide an estimate the very next day. On the day of the work, the entire team arrived on time and immediately prepared the job site. The area was isolated before any asbestos removal started. Throughout the day, all work was prefessionaly done. An independent inspector arrived several hours later when the asbestos abatement was complete, and gave his approval of a successful job. Erik and his team were neat, friendly, skilled, and it was actually enjoyable to observe their teamwork and efficiency. The completed site was left perfectly clean. I give Erik and ACS 10 out of 5 stars."

"Daniel was great to work with. He called when he said he would. He showed up for the testing on time. Explained what he was doing. He did a very thorough check for moisture behind the walls and air samples where needed. He really showed that he knows what he is doing. If I ever need a mold inspection done again I ll be calling Rudd to do it."

"This company was on the list of companies registered with Montgomery County. After the initial phone call, I was able to setup an appointment to coincide with the Abatement company that removed the tiles. All went very smooth and Maxximus representative was present throughout the day and explained all that he was doing. Very satisfied customer."

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Typical methods for asbestos removal include encapsulation, enclosure, and complete removal.

According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), hazardous waste is generally classified into four main categories:

1. Characteristic Wastes: These exhibit at least one of four hazardous traits: ignitability (flammable, like gasoline), corrosivity (can rust or decompose materials, like car batteries), reactivity (unstable and can explode, like aerosol cans), or toxicity (harmful when ingested, like lead-based paint).

2. Listed Wastes: These are specific wastes from manufacturing and industrial processes that the EPA has officially designated as hazardous. They include byproducts from processes that use solvents, pesticides, and other chemicals.

3. Universal Wastes: These are commonly generated hazardous items that are subject to streamlined regulations. Examples include batteries, pesticides, mercury-containing equipment (e.g., bulbs), and some lamps.

4. Mixed Wastes: This category includes waste that contains both hazardous and radioactive components, making it subject to regulation by both the EPA and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

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.

You can cover asbestos siding with another type of siding, such as vinyl, however, this may not be the best option. Covering the asbestos siding may disturb it, releasing fibers into the air. The covered siding can also be disturbed at a later date, such as by a new homeowner who is unaware of its presence.

If you decide to cover the siding, be sure to work with a professional and follow any local building codes and requirements. It may be the case that removing the asbestos siding is the better option, rather than covering it over. 

Power washing asbestos siding can be hazardous and isn't recommended. The power washer's high pressure can disturb the siding and release harmful asbestos fibers into the air. Rather than attempting to DIY it, hire a professional trained in asbestos handling to tackle any exterior cleaning.
