Asbestos Removal Athens, OH

You pulled up a tile in your 1970s house and found the black mastic underneath. Or you're looking at pipe insulation in the basement that's clearly been there since the Carter administration. In Athens, most of the housing stock around the University District and downtown went up before 1980, which means asbestos is somewhere in the walls, floors, or mechanical systems. When people search for the best asbestos removal near me, Central Insulation Systems Inc. is who picks up those calls.

Do not try to remove asbestos yourself, even if it looks like just old tiles or pipe wrap. Federal law requires containment barriers, negative air pressure, and certified disposal. The work has to follow EPA and OSHA protocols or you face fines that run into six figures. Crews that handle university town work know the drill because they've done it in dorms, academic buildings, and the old houses that professors rent out. We run the abatement crews that have worked with Ohio University for three decades, following the same protocols whether it's a campus building or a house on Richland Avenue.

We removed underground asbestos pipe insulation from Ohio State's stadium in a two-year project that involved multiple phases under the field itself. That's the level of containment and planning that goes into every job, whether it's a basement in Athens County or a major university facility. If you found something that looks like asbestos in your renovation, we can test it and handle the removal if needed.

What Our Customers Say

How much does asbestos removal actually cost

Your quote might look steep, but Athens homes built before the 1980s often hide asbestos in multiple spots that drive up removal costs. Pipe insulation in older houses near the University District runs $15-25 per linear foot, while those vintage floor tiles common in Downtown Historic District homes cost $5-15 per square foot to remove safely.
