"We had damaged asbestos tile in our basement, discovered when we tore up the carpet to do a basement renovation. We called Young at the advice of the person who tested the tile. Young was quick to schedule and handled the removal beautifully. Very pleased."

"From beginning to end, D&D made every effort to solve my very difficult problem/"surprise" at finding asbestos under the linoleum that became visible when a repair was being made to the damage done to my kitchen floor caused by a leaky dishwater. Their price was significantly less than other companies and couldn't have been done any better at twice the price. The difference was enough to pay for the materials needed to replace my floor and for this I am very grateful."

"Mohammed was as professional as professionals can be. He had an extremely competitive bid that was as good or possibly better than other Asbestos removal bids costing over ten thousand. He and his crew paid attention to details and made sure all passages were sealed. I highly recommend MJR and would hire him again for other needs"

"A crew showed up within the hour and immediately assessed and estimated, then went to work after I got the insurance OK.
It took several hours to tear out what was necessary, not only due to the extent, but because they were thorough and ensured that what they removed, both anticipated and unanticipated, was indeed necessary. I appreciated that. After they set the machinery to dry the infrastructure, I didn't have to clean up after them. Only had to hose the sidewalk from all the wet flakes of drywall that was removed. The crew did not slack off, nor were they surly. At a time when I'm trying not to stress out badly, their professionalism was welcomed.
A few days later when they removed the machinery at their estimated time, Jerry and Billie left only after they ensured the machines were no longer required.
My insurance sent another firm to perform the restoration, but had they sent the Burke ServPro for that I wouldn't have worried at all. [The new restoration company appears fine so far, too, but as it is ongoing, we'll see.]
Thanks, guys, for making a stressful event less stressful - that is almost as important as the quality work.

"John came to give us an estimate and we were a little shocked by the price. This is by no means a cheap service because of the regulations they have to follow. He called us later and lowered his price to keep his crew working and we were very happy for someone that really wanted our business. They were very prompt on the day of the removal. They did everything we asked and left the house in better shape than when they arrived. They even removed some old carpet that was in the way. We were very satisfied with the job they did. The one thing that we were surprised by was the fact they did not take credit cards. We had not budgeted for a cash payment. I hope in the future they are more up front with customers about this. We would use them again.

Asbestos Removal questions, answered by experts

Asbestos-containing materials are not easily affected by water and do not disintegrate or dissolve when exposed to it. However, porous materials can deteriorate due to water exposure, leading to the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The settling of asbestos fibers can also occur as water makes them heavy, which reduces the risk of airborne exposure, though future disturbance of the materials could cause risk. Wetting asbestos-containing materials does not constitute safe removal, and the proper handling and disposal of asbestos materials should be left to professionals.

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

Federal and state grants for asbestos testing and removal do exist and can help homeowners with the associated costs. In some cases, local housing grants help homeowners who have to remove asbestos as part of home repairs. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) also provides funding to help schools manage asbestos removal, but it doesn’t extend to homeowners. 

You are not really supposed to seal asbestos with paint, but in theory it could work—the caveat being that this is extremely dangerous and should be avoided at all costs. The only real way to seal asbestos is with the professional application of an encapsulating material like epoxy. Due to the negative effect asbestos can have on your home, however, it is usually the best course of action to accept a costly fix and remove the material entirely.

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.
