Asbestos Removal | Fort Lee, Bergen County | AAA Lead Pro
How Do Professionals Remove Asbestos?
Licensed asbestos removal isn’t simply tearing out old material.
Area Containment
Before anything comes out, our team seals off the work area completely with negative-air-pressure containment to prevent fibers from escaping into the rest of the home. Workers wear full protective gear and use wet suppression techniques during extraction to keep fibers from becoming airborne.
Disposal of ACM
Once the material is extracted, it’s placed into sealed, labeled bags and transported to a licensed disposal facility in compliance with New Jersey DEP regulations.
Air Testing After Asbestos Removal
The final step is post-clearance air testing to confirm the area is safe before containment comes down. You will receive complete documentation of the entire process. This matters in Fort Lee, where permits may need proof of compliant remediation.
Do I Need an Asbestos Inspection Before Starting a Renovation?
In New Jersey, the answer to this question for most residential renovation projects is yes. Any work that disturbs materials suspected of containing asbestos, like demolition, drywall removal, pipe replacement, and flooring work, should be preceded by an asbestos inspection. Our team identifies problem materials before your contractors go in, which protects everyone and keeps your project on track.

FAQ
What is asbestos?
Asbestos is a group of naturally occurring fibrous minerals, popularized due to their malleability and resistance to heat, water, and electricity.
Scientific findings about health problems from asbestos exposure lead to a steep decline in asbestos use by the late 1970s. Airborne asbestos fibers can cause mesothelioma, lung cancer, pulmonary diseases like asbestosis, pleural plaques, and other health risks.
Types of asbestos include:
- Chrysotile (white asbestos)
- Amotile (brown asbestos)
- Crocidolite (blue asbestos)
- Anthophyllite, tremolite and actinolite.
How much does asbestos removal in Bergen County cost?
The cost of asbestos inspection services or asbestos removal (asbestos abatement project) depends on a variety of factors, such as the square footage of your residential or business buildings, and the tools our workers will need. Unfortunately, this makes it difficult to generalize about the exact price.

Who can do asbestos testing and inspections in NJ?

None of these options are safe or satisfy legal requirements for professionally verifying that your renovation, construction, or demolition project will be asbestos-safe.
Asbestos-related work is regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Asbestos laws in NJ include the New Jersey Asbestos Control and Licensing Act and Asbestos National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP)
Can anyone remove asbestos in Bergen County NJ?
It is illegal for any unlicensed person or company in New Jersey to conduct asbestos removal.
