Asbestos Removal & Abatement Services in Ohio & Michigan

Asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) can pose serious health risks if disturbed during renovations, demolitions, or through everyday wear and tear. At Midwest Environmental Inc., we help property owners, facility managers, and organizations throughout Ohio and Southeast Michigan safeguard their buildings and occupants by providing comprehensive Asbestos Removal and Abatement services.

Since 1983, Midwest Environmental, Inc. has performed thousands of asbestos removal projects involving the testing, abatement, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials. We employ licensed asbestos abatement experts with 30+ years of experience in commercial and residential settings. Midwest Environmental, Inc. can handle projects of any size, ensuring strict compliance with all applicable federal and local regulations. From older buildings and schools to large industrial complexes, our certified team ensures projects meet all state and federal regulations.

Before 1989, hundreds of products contained asbestos due to its strength and resistance to heat and fire. Although some properties of asbestos were beneficial, health experts discovered that asbestos is a hazardous carcinogen that can cause a type of lung cancer called mesothelioma. As a result, regulations were implemented to restrict the use of asbestos and, in some cases, require its safe removal so that it no longer poses a risk to anyone who may be exposed to asbestos fibers. While some aspects of asbestos removal and remediation may seem time-consuming and expensive, the consequences of not properly removing it can be significantly more costly. Here’s why proper asbestos removal matters:

• Health Concerns
  Prolonged exposure to airborne asbestos fibers can lead to chronic respiratory illnesses, lung cancer, asbestosis, and mesothelioma. Proper removal drastically reduces these health risks for workers and occupants.
• State & Federal Regulations
  Both Michigan and Ohio enforce strict asbestos rules in line with EPA and OSHA standards. Failing to comply can result in hefty fines, delayed projects, and potential legal liability.

• Protecting Property Value
  Removing asbestos responsibly not only preserves but also enhances property value while preventing potential liabilities in the future. 

Midwest Environmental, Inc. can evaluate your specific situation and offer the most practical and cost-effective solutions to your asbestos problems.

1. Initial Assessment & Testing

   • We start with a thorough asbestos inspection to identify ACMs.
   • Our specialists collect samples for lab analysis and provide a detailed report on the location, condition, and type of asbestos.

2. Tailored Removal Plan

   • Every property is unique—be it a Michigan school or an Ohio manufacturing plant.
   • We design an abatement strategy (removal, enclosure, or encapsulation) that aligns with local regulations, timelines, and budgetary needs.

3. Containment & Safety Measures

   • To prevent asbestos fibers from migrating, we establish containment zones and follow strict safety protocols.
   • Our team uses personal protective equipment (PPE) and specialized tools, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily operations.

4. Licensed Abatement & Disposal

   • Midwest Environmental’s abatement crews are fully trained, licensed, and knowledgeable about the requirements of the Ohio Department of Health (ODH) and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), as well as the Great Lakes and Energy (EGLE).
   • We coordinate legal disposal of asbestos waste at approved facilities, maintaining proper documentation for your records.

5. Air Monitoring & Final Clearance

   • During removal, we conduct air monitoring to ensure asbestos fiber levels remain within safe limits.
   • After abatement, we perform clearance testing as necessary to verify that the area is free of hazardous levels of asbestos, allowing you to continue renovations or reoccupy the space with confidence.

• Commercial & Industrial Facilities: Large factories, warehouses, and office buildings often have extensive ACMs; abatement ensures worker safety and regulatory compliance.
• Schools & Public Buildings: Educational facilities must meet stringent federal and state regulations (e.g., AHERA), making regular inspections and abatement essential.
• Healthcare & Municipalities: Hospitals and municipal buildings must maintain safe environments for patients, staff, and the public.
• Homeowners & Realtors: Older houses may contain asbestos in attic insulation, popcorn ceilings, flooring, or ductwork.

• Licensed in Ohio & Michigan
  We hold all required certifications to operate in both states, ensuring a seamless experience regardless of your location.

• Local Regulatory Expertise
  Our team stays up-to-date on Ohio EPA, DEQ, and EGLE guidelines, ensuring your project meets every local, state, and federal requirement.

• Safety-Driven Methodology
  We prioritize the well-being of workers, occupants, and the surrounding community through each phase of the abatement process.
