I can recommend this company 100%- friendly, thorough, knowledgeable, fair.. Turns out, my attic didnt have vermiculite and none of the previous companies bothered to tell me. Joe took his time at our house to explain how to proceed given this unusual situation and even got back to me after he did some additional research on what the material could be. Didnt charge anything. Thank you so much!!!

Great communication and service. Their team very promptly came over to inspect and take the tile sample. Marc was very helpful and professional - he did an awesome job of explaining everything to us which was really nice as first time homeowners, as well as not getting us worked up or nervous. We would definitely recommend to anyone!

You know you have a lot of asbestos when you've got your AirSafe inspector's number in your favorites. We had them out to take a few samples that came back clean, and thought we were in the clear until we found vermiculite in a wall. This lead to many more unhappy discoveries and we were glad to have Airsafe there. When our electricians found a large vermiculite deposit in the wall, they came that day to patch it up for us and vacuum. They worked with us on the ever changing scope and helped us apply for the zonolite trust payment. When problems or delays came up, they communicated about

Dave was great to work with. We were in constant communication regarding the project (removal of asbestos popcorn ceiling). At the end of the day the popcorn and asbestos were gone and Dave made sure we were happy with the ultimate end result at a fair and reasonable price. Highly recommend

Efficient. I phoned a couple of companies, Mr Walsh and his team responded within hours. After reviewing the problem areas in our new home (of old construction), we were able to have Mr Walsh's team clear out the scary stuff. The team wore protective gear; given the nature of the work they conducted I am grateful. Thank you!

I called AirSafe after mass saves contractor found vermiculite in my attic and said I had too have it remediated before they could re-insulate my attic. I met with one of their sales reps and he gave me a quote based on removing the vermiculite he found. The work was completed in a timely and professional manor. When revise energy came to re-insulate they found more vermiculite under 2 layers of old insulation and had to stop work. I called Dave and he had his crew back right away and spent the whole day going through every square inch until it was spotless. I would highly recommend Dave and
