Our Process
- 01
Inspection & bulk sampling
A certified inspector collects bulk samples of suspected ACM (asbestos-containing materials) and sends them to an accredited lab. Results typically in 24–48 hours.
- 02
Abatement plan & permits
We file the required NJ DOL notification and obtain any municipal permits before work begins — legally required and strictly enforced.
- 03
Containment setup
We seal the work area with polyethylene sheeting and establish negative air pressure using HEPA-filtered air scrubbers. No fibers leave the work area.
- 04
Removal & bagging
Licensed technicians remove all ACM, wet it to prevent fiber release, and double-bag it in labeled, sealed containers per NJ DOL and EPA regulations.
- 05
Air clearance & sign-off
A third-party air monitoring specialist performs final air clearance testing. You get a written clearance certificate before we leave. Project documentation is filed with the DOL.

Yes. Every asbestos abatement project ends with a third-party air clearance test and a written clearance certificate. This is required by NJ DOL and necessary for insurance, sale, and re-occupancy.
