Your Kansas City Asbestos Questions Answered
How do I know if my property has asbestos?
If your building was constructed before the 1980s, there’s a good chance it contains asbestos somewhere. Even more recent buildings aren’t immune, as an asbestos ban has yet to be fully enacted. The only way to know for sure is to have a professional inspection and laboratory testing. Visual checks are never enough.
Is asbestos dangerous if it’s undisturbed?
Generally, asbestos is most hazardous when disturbed, such as during renovations, demolition, or damage. However, even “contained” materials can degrade over time. If you’re planning any work or see crumbling insulation, it’s best to test and act quickly.
What happens if asbestos is found?
If asbestos is present, we’ll walk you through all safe, legal options. In some cases, proper encapsulation is sufficient; in others, full removal is required. You’ll get a step-by-step plan and a fixed price before any work begins.
Are you licensed and insured for asbestos work?
Absolutely. Our abatement professionals carry all necessary certifications for both Kansas and Missouri, and Cromwell is fully insured for environmental projects.
