"We needed to remove linoleum flooring and install LV flooring in guest bathroom and install new toilets in guest and master bathroom. Work was done efficiently and professionally. We have other projects in mind for Carlos and his team in the future. Carlos is great at communicating via text before and after the project."

"We had an excellent experience with Restoration, Repairs and Remodeling. Our back steps were rotting terribly and needed to be fully replaced. Roger and the team came out to give us a quote the same day we contacted them, and were available to start the job within a few days. The finished stairs look and feel fantastic. The best detail: They were able to remove some iron detailing from the original stairs and incorporate it into the new stairs in a creative and beautiful way. Roger and the team were friendly, thoughtful, and went the extra mile. They took me with them to the store to look at stain colors to be sure that we got the one that we would be most happy with -- instead of just looking at the squares on the brochure. I am looking around our house to see what other restoration projects we could hire this team to help us with!"

"Easy to work with. They put in long days 8 - 6:30. Very little time for breaks and lunch. Make sure you have all items removed from the walls and as much as you can remove items. Everything gets dusty with sanding wall repairs or removal of popcorn ceilings. I highly recommend this company!!"

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

In Durham, homes built from the 1920s to the 1980s often have asbestos in vinyl floor tiles, pipe insulation, HVAC ductwork, and exterior siding. Popcorn ceilings and roofing shingles are also common sources. Basements, crawl spaces, and detached garages may harbor asbestos due to moisture exposure, making regular asbestos testing and inspection important for these areas over time.

Helpful?

In NC, avoid touching or moving any material you suspect contains asbestos. If you spot minor damage, close off the area with plastic sheeting and tape, and turn off fans or HVAC to prevent fiber spread. Keep everyone, including pets, away and document the issue with photos. If material is disturbed, lightly mist it with water, then leave and contact an asbestos abatement professional immediately.

Helpful?

Durham’s humid summers and frequent storms can make asbestos materials more brittle, increasing the risk of fiber release during removal. Professionals often schedule projects in spring or fall for milder conditions, reducing safety risks. Heavy rain may delay outdoor asbestos abatement, while winter’s freeze-thaw cycles can worsen damage in attics and basements, sometimes requiring urgent attention before the next season.

Helpful?

Durham contractors offer eco-friendly asbestos removal by using energy-efficient HEPA filtration systems and minimizing waste through careful material consolidation. Many specialists use low-VOC encapsulants and ensure all asbestos waste is transported to certified disposal sites. Some also implement reusable containment barriers, reducing single-use plastics and supporting sustainable practices throughout the asbestos abatement process.

Helpful?

In Durham, homeowners often prioritize asbestos abatement during kitchen and bathroom remodels, especially in historic neighborhoods. Many choose selective removal paired with encapsulation to preserve original features while ensuring safety. Pre-renovation asbestos testing is now a routine step, and there’s growing interest in using low-dust containment systems to protect indoor air quality, particularly in homes with children or allergy concerns.
