Lead & Asbestos Testing and Abatement in SE Louisville, KY

Before any renovation, demolition, or restoration work begins on a home or building constructed before the early 1980s, testing identifies whether lead paint or asbestos-containing materials are present and where. Our team collects samples from suspect materials, including paint, insulation, floor tile, and ceiling materials, and provides clear documentation of the results so you know exactly what you're dealing with before work proceeds.

Lead-based paint was commonly used in homes built before 1978, and it remains a hazard when it chips, peels, or is disturbed by sanding, cutting, or demolition. Depending on the condition and location of the paint, our approach ranges from encapsulation and stabilization to full removal, always following lead-safe work practices to contain dust and debris and protect occupants during the process.

Asbestos was used extensively in insulation, floor tile, ceiling tile, pipe wrap, and other building materials through the 1980s, and it's especially common in older homes and commercial buildings throughout the Louisville area. When these materials are damaged, deteriorating, or scheduled for disturbance during a renovation, our crew contains the area, removes the material following required protocols, and disposes of it properly, with clearance testing to confirm the space is safe before other work resumes.

Lead and asbestos issues frequently surface in the middle of a larger project, such as when a water-damaged ceiling turns out to contain asbestos tile, or fire repairs require disturbing painted trim in a pre-1978 Louisville home. Rather than pausing the project to bring in a separate abatement contractor, our team can identify the hazard, contain and remove it, and move directly back into the restoration or reconstruction work already underway. That coordination keeps your project on schedule instead of stalling while you search for a second company.
