Expert Asbestos Abatement in Washington, DC
Washington DC has a large stock of pre-1980 buildings. Many of those structures still contain asbestos in insulation, floor tiles, pipe coatings, ceiling materials, and roofing. When those materials get disturbed during renovation or demolition, fibers become airborne and pose a serious health risk to occupants and workers. Rath Enterprises, Inc. handles asbestos abatement for property owners and facility managers across Washington DC. Our process starts with a thorough inspection to locate asbestos-containing materials. We then contain the work area, remove the material using wet methods to limit fiber release, seal waste in labeled bags, and arrange proper disposal. DC commercial buildings built before 2000 require a survey before abatement work begins. We work within those regulatory requirements so your project stays compliant with DC DOEE rules and federal EPA and OSHA standards. Whether you manage an office building, a multi-unit property, or a government facility, contact Rath Enterprises, Inc. to schedule an assessment.
