Residential Asbestos Removal
If your home was built before 1980, there’s a high chance it contains asbestos in materials like drywall, plaster, popcorn ceilings, vinyl flooring, and pipe or attic insulation. When these materials are disturbed, they release microscopic asbestos fibers into the air—posing serious health risks such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis.
At Asbestos Experts™, we specialize in residential asbestos removal across New Mexico and West Texas. Our team is not only EPA-licensed but also proudly holds GS29 certification, ensuring the highest level of training and regulatory compliance in asbestos abatement. Whether you’re remodeling, selling your home, or responding to an inspection, we offer safe, professional solutions you can trust.
The Hidden Dangers of Asbestos in Homes
Asbestos was once used in thousands of residential building materials for its fire-resistant and insulating properties. Unfortunately, its long-term health effects were not widely understood until decades later. Today, asbestos remains a threat in many older homes—often hidden in places like:
- Popcorn ceilings
- Floor tiles and mastic
- Insulation around pipes and ductwork
- Textured paints
- Cement roofing and siding
These materials may seem harmless, but when cut, sanded, or damaged, they can release fibers that become lodged in the lungs—leading to chronic respiratory illness or cancer over time. If you’re unsure whether your home contains asbestos, it’s crucial to schedule a professional inspection before starting any renovation or demolition.
Why GS29 Certification Matters
Not all asbestos removal companies meet the same standards. Our GS29 certification proves that our technicians have undergone advanced training in asbestos abatement protocols, worker safety, containment practices, and proper disposal procedures. It’s an additional level of assurance that our work is compliant with state and federal regulations—and that your home is in the hands of trained professionals.
When combined with our EPA licensing, our GS29-certified status makes us one of the most qualified asbestos abatement providers in the region.
Our Safe, Streamlined Process
We follow a detailed, step-by-step process to ensure safe and effective removal of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) in residential settings:
- Inspection & Testing – We identify potential ACMs and send samples to a certified lab for analysis.
- Abatement Planning – Our team develops a custom strategy based on your home’s structure and scope of contamination.
- Containment – Work areas are sealed using plastic barriers and negative air pressure systems to prevent fiber spread.
- Removal & Disposal – We safely extract and dispose of ACMs using OSHA-compliant equipment and techniques.
- Final Air Clearance – Independent testing ensures the air is safe for reentry.
Throughout the process, we maintain constant communication and treat your home with the care it deserves.
