Asbestos Abatement
In the event asbestos is uncovered on your property, trust Quality Projects Restoration for complete removal and restoration.Asbestos is a carcinogenic mineral fiber occurring in rocks and soil. Before its health hazards were discovered, asbestos was commonly used for building materials. Yet exposure through inhalation or ingestion can cause inflammation and cell damage, potentially leading to lung cancer or mesothelioma, a rare cancer affecting the lungs, abdomen and heart.
Asbestos is often found in vinyl flooring, roofing materials, cement sheets, pipe insulation and furnace ducts. If asbestos-containing materials (ACM) are discovered in your home or building, it’s important to address the issue right away to eliminate the related health risks.

Asbestos Safety Protocols
Our asbestos abatement contractors and consultants are regulated by the Connecticut State Department of Public Health’s Asbestos Program and Environmental Practitioner Licensing Program. We follow strict safety protocols, as outlined by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), to ensure safe and effective asbestos removal.
The affected area will be sealed off with plastic sheeting, then specialized equipment and techniques used to minimize the risk of asbestos fibers spreading.
After the asbestos-containing materials have been safely removed, our team will perform a thorough cleaning, decontamination and inspection to confirm the eradication of asbestos fibers. A final air quality test will determine if the property is safe for occupancy.
