Asbestos Removal/Abatement

Since 1989
 
 
Many home and building owners find it necessary to identify and remove any and all asbestos containing materials from their structure. Common components that may contain asbestos include:
  • Acoustic Ceilings (popcorn & cottage cheese)
  • Fireproofing
  • Heating Ducts
  • Flooring Materials (i.e. tile, linoleum, mastic)
  • Pipe Insulation
  • Transite Pipes
  • Transite Panels
  • Water Heaters
  • Siding
  • Roofing
  • Sheet Rock and Joint Compound
  • Stucco
  • Boilers

Whether the asbestos removal is associated with a renovation, flood, fire, restoration, or demolition, Rapco can provide you with a cost estimate for your situation. All materials are removed using appropriate containment and air filtration in accordance with all regulatory agencies. No job is too large or too small for Rapco to provide a safe and cost-effective solution.

WARNING! DO NOT USE A REMOVAL COMPANY TO DO YOUR ENVIRONMENTAL TESTING!

When you're not sure if you have an environmental problem, i.e. asbestos, mold, lead, etc., then you should have the material tested by an INDEPENDENT COMPANY. There is a very defined conflict of interest for any company which performs both removal of environmentally hazardous materials and also tests for the same. In other words, don't have the same company first test to see if you have a problem and then subsequently offer to sell you a job to correct the problem!

What you should know about your asbestos company:

Environmental clean-up should be performed by a company that is licensed with the State of California Contractors State License Board.  Companies that perform asbestos removal should have an ASB (asbestos) classification. It is also compulsory that asbestos removal companies register with CAL/OSHA and obtain a registration number that should be offered to all prospective clients. Further, environmental companies should maintain an adequate level of insurance. All workers who perform environmental clean-up should have proper training in order to assure that asbestos fibres are not scattered through-out the work area during removal. There are very specialized techniques that must be incorporated in order to assure a safe removal process.  All workers must be covered by worker's compensation insurance to assure that no liability is passed on to the property owner (client). 
 
Rapco is licensed with the State of California Contractors State License Board with an ASB classification (License #671425). Rapco is registered with CAL/OSHA (Registration #263). All of Rapco's workers attend annual refresher courses. Rapco maintains a $1,000,000.00 liability insurance policy.   All of Rapco's workers are covered by worker's compensation insurance.
