Suspect asbestos? Do this first.


If you believe a material may contain asbestos, the safest immediate step is to **avoid disturbing it**:

  1. Don’t cut, sand, drill, scrape, or pull it apart.
  2. Restrict access to the area (keep kids/pets away).
  3. Avoid sweeping, dusting, or vacuuming nearby.
  4. Pause remodeling or demolition until testing confirms what you’re dealing with.
  5. If material was accidentally disturbed, stop work and call a professional to assess next steps.

Asbestos abatement designed to reduce exposure risk and keep your project moving


Asbestos becomes a bigger concern when materials are **damaged** or **disturbed**—especially during renovations, repairs, or demolition. Our goal is to remove or manage asbestos-containing materials using a controlled process that limits fiber spread, keeps the work area contained, and helps you move forward with clarity.

What you can expect

  • A clear assessment of what needs to be addressed
  • A containment plan designed to limit cross-contamination
  • Controlled removal and careful handling of affected materials
  • Proper packaging and disposal (per applicable requirements)
  • Documentation of the work and next-step guidance for repairs/rebuild

When asbestos removal is typically recommended


Removal is commonly recommended when:

  • You’re remodeling and the material will be cut, drilled, sanded, or demolished
  • The material is friable (crumbly) or deteriorating
  • The area is repeatedly being impacted (leaks, vibration, traffic)
  • You need the space cleared for repairs, restoration, or reconstruction
  • Testing has confirmed asbestos and leaving it in place isn’t practical for your goals

If a confirmed asbestos-containing material is intact and will not be disturbed, leaving it in place or encapsulating it may be an option. The right answer depends on condition and your project scope.

Encapsulation vs removal (what’s the difference?)

Option Best for Pros Considerations
Leave in place (manage) Intact material that won’t be disturbed Least disruption Not suitable if remodeling/repairs will disturb it
Encapsulation (seal/coat) Intact material where disturbance can be avoided Can reduce fiber release risk when done correctly Not a “removal”; future work still needs planning
Enclosure (build barrier) Materials that can be isolated behind a permanent barrier Limits contact and disturbance Space/structure considerations; future work planning still needed
Removal (abatement) Remodeling, deterioration, repeated impacts, or confirmed risk Clears the way for renovation/restoration Requires controlled containment, careful disposal, and clear documentation

Common asbestos-containing materials in older properties


Asbestos was used in many building products for durability and heat resistance. Some common suspects include:

  • Textured ceilings (including some popcorn textures)
  • Vinyl floor tile and adhesives (mastic)
  • Drywall joint compound and patching materials
  • Pipe/boiler insulation and duct wrap
  • Vermiculite attic insulation
  • Some siding, roofing materials, and cement-board products
  • Heat-resistant panels, gaskets, and older sealants

Testing is the only way to confirm whether a specific material contains asbestos.

Is asbestos removal covered by insurance?

Coverage depends on your policy and what triggered the work. Many asbestos projects are tied to remodeling or pre-project safety planning rather than a covered loss. If asbestos is discovered as part of restoring damage from a covered event, your carrier may have specific requirements for documentation and process.

We don’t determine coverage—your insurance carrier does.

Frequently Asked Questions


  • What’s the difference between asbestos abatement and asbestos removal?

    Abatement typically refers to the controlled process used to manage asbestos risk (often through containment and safety procedures). Removal is the physical removal of asbestos-containing materials using a controlled abatement approach.

  • Can I remove asbestos myself?

    Because asbestos can be hazardous when disturbed, professional removal is strongly recommended. Requirements can vary depending on the material type and scope—especially for friable materials.

  • Do I need asbestos testing before removal?

    In most cases, yes. Testing confirms whether a material contains asbestos and helps determine the safest scope and plan.

  • Is asbestos dangerous if it’s not disturbed?

    Risk increases when asbestos-containing materials are damaged or disturbed. If the material is intact and won’t be disturbed, leaving it in place or encapsulating it may be an option.

  • What should I do if asbestos was accidentally disturbed during a remodel?

    Stop work, avoid further disturbance, restrict access, and schedule a professional assessment to determine the safest next step.

  • How long does asbestos removal take?

    Timelines vary based on the size of the area, material type, containment requirements, and whether clearance testing is requested. After assessment, we’ll outline expected phases.

  • Do you provide documentation after removal?

    Yes. We provide a clear work summary and documentation to support project next steps (and insurance communication when applicable).

  • Do you coordinate clearance testing?

    If requested, we can help coordinate third-party clearance verification depending on your project needs and scope.

  • Can you rebuild after asbestos removal?

    Yes. We can coordinate repairs and reconstruction after removal so the space can be restored and finished.

  • What areas do you serve?

    We serve Denver and many surrounding cities across the Denver Metro Area. Call (720) 620-3272 to confirm your location.
