  • Vinyl Asbestos Floor Tiles

It’s a specialized job that must not be attempted by random people. Trust our trained professionals who offer quality asbestos removal in Maryland.

Assessment and Containment

We begin by conducting a thorough assessment of the affected area to identify asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and assess their condition. Once identified, we create a containment area to isolate the ACMs and prevent the spread of asbestos fibers. This involves sealing off the area with plastic sheeting and implementing negative air pressure and air filtration systems.

Safe Removal

Our trained asbestos abatement professionals safely remove the identified ACMs while following strict safety protocols. We use specialized personal protective equipment (PPE), approved removal techniques, and minimize the generation of dust or fibers. Wetting asbestos materials is commonly employed to reduce fiber release.

FAQs about Asbestos

  • What are the health risks if I have asbestos in my home, building, apartment, or school?

    Asbestos that is in good condition and left undisturbed is unlikely to present a health risk.  The risks from asbestos occur when it is damaged or disturbed where asbestos fibers become airborne and can be inhaled. Managing asbestos in place and maintaining it in good repair is often the best approach.  


    If you are planning a home remodeling project, it's essential to consider the presence of asbestos in building materials. Identifying asbestos-containing materials by sight alone is not possible. If you suspect that a material in your home may contain asbestos, such as floor tiles, ceiling tiles, or old pipe wrap, and it shows signs of damage or if you are intending to disturb the material during renovations, it is recommended by the EPA to have it sampled by a trained and accredited asbestos professional.


    The asbestos professional will collect samples and send them to a qualified laboratory for analysis. Additionally, you can gather information about potential asbestos content in replacement materials by checking product labels, contacting the manufacturer, or requesting the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) from your retailer for the specific products in question.


    It's important to note that asbestos, when in good condition and undisturbed, poses minimal health risks. Problems arise when asbestos-containing materials are damaged or disturbed, releasing airborne fibers that can be inhaled. Therefore, managing asbestos in place and ensuring its proper maintenance is often the recommended approach to minimize potential health hazards.


    By taking the necessary precautions and seeking professional guidance, you can effectively address any concerns related to asbestos during your home remodeling project, ensuring the safety and well-being of yourself and your loved ones.

  • Asbestos Testing How do I know if I have asbestos in my home (in floor tile, ceiling tile, shingles, siding, etc.)?

    If you have concerns about the presence of asbestos in your home, it is crucial to have it properly tested or to assume that the suspected material does contain asbestos. Asbestos testing typically involves obtaining samples from various locations and materials within your home, and the cost usually ranges from $400 to $800 for standard sampling.


    During the testing process, samples are sent to a reputable testing laboratory, and the results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours. In cases where expedited results are needed, some testing laboratories may offer this service for an additional fee. Once the consulting firm receives the test results, they will provide you with a comprehensive report that identifies the materials and locations that have tested positive or negative for asbestos. The report will also include professional guidance on how to manage any identified asbestos-containing materials.


    By investing in proper asbestos testing, you gain essential knowledge about the presence of asbestos in your home, allowing you to make informed decisions regarding the management and potential removal of hazardous materials. Your safety and the well-being of your household are of utmost importance, and taking the necessary steps to address asbestos-related concerns will help ensure a healthy living environment.

  • Permitting Regulations for (VA, DC, MD)

    For Class 1 TSI & Surfacing Materials asbestos removal exceeding 10 square feet, we offer comprehensive services. In Virginia (VA), if you require Class II Friable asbestos removal (such as floor tiles, roof, or siding), we can handle projects ranging from 261 to 2600 linear feet or 161 to 1600 square feet. Similarly, in Washington, D.C. (DC), we are equipped to manage these types of projects.


    In Maryland (MD), non-NESHAP projects or those involving more than 4 units require a permit from the state before work can commence. The permit processing period for a standard permit is 10 business days, and it must be obtained 20 calendar days prior to the start of the project.


    For Virginia projects, a standard permit incurs a fee of either $180 or $400, depending on the quantity of materials to be removed. However, in cases where asbestos poses an immediate threat, emergency permits can be granted upon submission of a written letter explaining the urgency of the abatement. These emergency permits are typically approved within 48 hours and carry the same cost as mentioned earlier, based on the volume of material to be removed.


    At America Restorations, LLC, we ensure compliance with all local regulations and permit requirements. Our team is experienced in navigating the permit process and will handle all necessary documentation to ensure a smooth asbestos removal project. You can rely on our expertise to complete the work efficiently and in accordance with all relevant regulations.

  • How Will We Do the Abatement?

    Once the permit has been granted, we are ready to commence work promptly and efficiently. Our experienced team will arrive fully prepared to carry out the necessary tasks in a manner that meets the highest standards of safety and quality. Depending on the specific situation, we may recommend asbestos repair as an alternative solution. This involves applying a sealant or airtight material to encapsulate the hazardous surface, preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air.


    Upon completing the abatement process, an industrial hygienist will visit the site to conduct a comprehensive visual inspection and perform air quality tests. These tests are essential to ensure that the area is free from any asbestos debris and meets the required safety standards. We maintain our containment measures until the inspection and tests confirm that the environment is safe and asbestos-free.


    Once the area has been deemed asbestos-free, we will carefully remove our containment and equipment from the premises, leaving the property clean and prepared for any necessary reconstruction or renovation work to commence. As soon as the final air clearance report is available, we will promptly provide it to you along with the invoice. Our priority is to deliver a comprehensive service that not only ensures your safety but also provides you with the necessary documentation to demonstrate the successful completion of the asbestos removal process.

  • Where does asbestos go after it is removed?

    Once the asbestos-containing materials have been safely removed, they are securely sealed in bags and transported by a Licensed Abatement Contractor or a Licensed Asbestos Hauler to an EPA Approved Landfill for proper disposal. This ensures that the hazardous materials are handled and disposed of in compliance with environmental regulations.
