River City Environmental

Here at River City Environmental we have professionally trained staff to make sure the job is done the right way. Many buildings contain asbestos, which was used in spray-applied flame retardant, thermal system insulation, and in a variety of other materials. Typically, the part of the building from which asbestos is being removed has to be sealed off in order to prevent contamination of the other areas.

Methods of sealing off an area often include the use of Polyethylene film, duct tape and negative air pressure machines which are fitted with HEPA filters. The idea is that the contained area is pulling fresh air in as to not allow asbestos fibers into the surrounding environment. Removal is not the only means of asbestos abatement.
