Old buildings built before the 1980s contain asbestos in their structure. Asbestos was used in insulation, floor tiles, roof shingles, pipe wrapping, and even joint compounds for decades. After years, these tiny fibers are released into the air, breathing them can lead to serious lung conditions and even cancer.

Asbestos abatement is the process of identifying, containing, and removing these materials from your property so your indoor air stays safe. According to the EPA, asbestos exposure is responsible for thousands of deaths in the United States every year. Those numbers have not gone down because many older buildings still contain asbestos, and property owners have no idea about it.

The NYC Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) requires that all asbestos removal work be performed by a licensed asbestos abatement contractor. Before any demolition or renovation in buildings built before 2007, an asbestos survey is mandatory under NYC Local Law 76.

The New York State Department of Labor also requires that abatement workers hold valid certifications and that all projects be reported through the Asbestos Control Bureau. Failure to comply can result in fines that range from $5,000 to $25,000 per violation, and in some cases, criminal charges.

On the federal level, the EPA’s National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulate how asbestos is handled, transported, and disposed of. OSHA also sets exposure limits for workers at 0.1 fibers per cubic centimeter over an 8-hour period.

As a licensed asbestos abatement company in Brooklyn, Big Apple Asbestos follows every regulation at the city, state, and federal levels, so your project stays compliant.

Removing asbestos is just the initial step. What happens after abatement matters more because a small oversight can leave behind traces that compromise your air quality.

We provide post-abatement air quality monitoring to verify that fiber levels are within safe limits. If your property needs re-inspection after a set period, we schedule follow-up visits. For properties with partial encapsulation, we recommend periodic checks to confirm that the sealed materials are still intact and have not degraded over time.

Many property owners in Brooklyn assume that once the asbestos is removed, the issue is gone for good. But without proper follow-up, you are just guessing that the air inside your building is safe.

Schedule a follow-up inspection with our asbestos abatement service team and keep your property safe for the long run.
