Asbestos Testing, Removal and Abatement in Scranton, PA
SafeShield Asbestos Removal handles asbestos testing, inspection, abatement and full removal for homes, rental properties and commercial buildings throughout Scranton, PA. Most projects start in one of two places. If you have found suspect material during a renovation or before a sale, begin with testing or an inspection so you know what you are dealing with before anyone disturbs it. If a lab report already confirms asbestos, or the material is damaged and shedding fibers, move straight to abatement or removal. From there, the work is defined by the material itself, whether that is floor tile, textured ceilings, pipe insulation or exterior siding. Each service below has its own page with details on process, containment and clearance. Call (570) 632-3920 to describe your situation and we will point you to the right starting point.
Asbestos Abatement
