Asbestos Removal

Asbestos is present in a wide variety of building materials. Although asbestos fibers are microscopic in nature they are extremely durable and resistant to fire and most chemical reactions. These properties made Asbestos a very versatile fiber to use in many commercial and industrial applications. However asbestos exposure has a direct link to several deadly diseases including Mesothelioma, which is a fatal cancer that affects the lining of the lungs. Asbestos abatement requires specialized training and safety precautions and needs to be handled by a trained and certified workforce.

Fire Stopping

Firestopping is the application of fire protection systems.
