Asbestos in Floor Tiles: Identification and Removal Services

Asbestos can commonly be found in 9" x 9" and 12" x 12" floor tiles, which were produced in various colors during the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s. The 9" x 9" tiles were particularly prevalent and often labeled as “9" x 9" asbestos tile” on their packaging.

These tiles were utilized in numerous areas of residential and commercial buildings, including basements, kitchens, offices, and classrooms.

Our team of certified experts, with over 30 years of experience, employs state-of-the-art containment strategies, air filtration systems, HEPA vacuums, and personal protective equipment to ensure the safe removal of asbestos flooring from your home or office. In many cases, if the tiles are in good condition (i.e., not broken or damaged), leaving the material in place is the best option. However, if the tiles have been water/fire damaged, or if you are planning to update a space or demolish a structure containing asbestos floor tiles, please contact us for all your asbestos removal and testing needs.

Asbestos, a naturally occurring mineral once valued for its durability and fire resistance, poses serious health risks when disturbed. Inhalation of asbestos fibers can lead to severe respiratory diseases, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

When it comes to the removal of asbestos-containing floor tiles, adherence to strict safety protocols is essential. Only certified professionals should handle the removal, as they are trained to manage hazardous materials properly and ensure the safe containment of the area. Engaging in DIY removal significantly increases the risk of fiber release, endangering both the individual conducting the removal and others nearby.

Moreover, maintaining a safe home or workplace can enhance property value and provide peace of mind. If your building was constructed before the 1980s, it is advisable to arrange for a professional inspection for asbestos. Should asbestos be detected, prompt and safe removal is crucial to mitigate health risks and ensure compliance with local regulations. Prioritizing the removal of asbestos floor tiles not only protects individual health but also contributes to the overall well-being of the community.
