Wiping Out Asbestos, Lead, & Mold Completely

There are many different side effects caused by exposure to asbestos, lead, or mold. In fact, our owner has experienced several problems due to such environmental hazards. After you contact Environmental Renovation Group, we assess the situation at your home or business in Cleveland, Ohio, and offer a quote on the work needed to alleviate this major health threat.

Asbestos Removal

A mineral mined from the earth because of its resilient properties and resistant to heat, asbestos was used in a vast majority of building materials. During the 1970s, the government banned asbestos use because it was proven to cause cancer. Asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma are among the common hazards associated with exposure to asbestos.

If you notice torn insulation with holes in it or anything similar, call us right away. We use what is called the wet method to remove asbestos, along with contaminated plaster and towels. Whoever comes in contact with the substance should not be involved in the removal or demolition process.

Lead Removal

The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) estimates that 75% of all houses built in the United States before 1978 contain some lead-based paint. Lead affects every system of the body. While it is harmful to individuals of all ages, exposure is especially damaging to children.

Please take precautions when renovating houses older than 1978. Hazardous lead is normally found in windows, doors, and siding. We come visit your location to assess the situation and decide the most appropriate course of action. The wet method is utilized in certain cases.

Mold Remediation

Black mold, scientific name Stachybotrys, is the newest killer added to the Center of Disease Control's list. Unheard of a decade ago, black mold sending people fleeing is a constant source of news today. In 1993, a cluster of newborn babies in Cleveland, Ohio, perished because of a bleeding lung disorder as a direct result of toxic black mold. Our team always utilizes an AFD (Air Filtration Device), HEPA vacuum, and specific chemicals to rid spaces of mold.
