What to check when hiring asbestos removal in the United States
MyTrustedTraders ranks on independent public evidence. No ads, no paid placement. Use these checks alongside the evidence on each profile before you decide who to contact.
- Contractor licensing in the US is set by each state (and sometimes the city or county). For electrical, plumbing, HVAC or any major build, confirm the trade is licensed on your state's licensing board before hiring. Unlicensed work where a license is required can void permits and insurance and leave you no recourse.
- Ask for a lien waiver as you pay each stage: in most US states an unpaid contractor or subcontractor can place a mechanic's lien on your home even if you already paid the main contractor, and a signed waiver is your protection.
- Look for consistent reviews across several named sources, not one polished profile.
- Check any credential evidence, and that the business details independently check out.
- Get a written quote and keep guarantee, insurance and payment terms in writing.
How to judge an asbestos removal
Independent, no-ads guidance. The trade-specific checks that matter most, the warning signs, and what to ask before you hire. Use it alongside each contractor’s public evidence above.
Verify before you hire
- In the US asbestos abatement contractors and workers must be accredited under the federal AHERA Model Accreditation Plan and licensed by your state: most states run an asbestos contractor license. Verify it with the state agency (often the health or environmental department).
- Larger removals must be notified to the EPA or state under the NESHAP rule (typically 10 working days before), and independent air-clearance sampling done by an accredited monitor before reoccupation. Confirm both.
- Ask for the written work plan; the job must follow OSHA asbestos standards: wet methods, sealed containment, negative-air units, and respirators.
- Confirm asbestos liability insurance and that waste goes to an EPA-approved landfill with a waste shipment record (manifest) you are given.
Warning signs of a rogue contractor
- No state asbestos license or AHERA accreditation, or a general handyman offering to just tear it out.
- Dry-removing, breaking, or power-tooling asbestos instead of wetting it and using proper containment: a NESHAP and OSHA violation.
- No independent air-clearance testing after the abatement.
- Skips the EPA or state notification on a large job, or won't provide the waste manifest.
Questions to ask before you hire
- What is your state asbestos abatement license number, and are your workers AHERA-accredited?
- Will this job be notified to the EPA or state under NESHAP, and who does the independent air clearance?
- Can I see your written work plan and asbestos insurance?
- Which approved landfill will the waste go to, and will I get the waste manifest?
Frequently asked questions
- How do I choose a trustworthy asbestos removal?
- Compare the public evidence on each profile: how many independent reviews they have and across how many named sources, the rating and how recent it is, any credential evidence, and the company status. An asbestos removal backed by several named sources is harder to fake than one found in only one place.
- Does MyTrustedTraders rank or recommend asbestos removal for payment?
- No. There are no ads and no paid placement. Asbestos removal are ranked only by the strength of independent public evidence. No one can pay to rank higher, add a badge, or change their reviews.
- Where do the reviews come from?
- They're imported from named public review sources and always shown with the source named. They aren't reviews written on MyTrustedTraders. We cross-check the same business across sources rather than creating new reviews.
- What should I check before hiring an asbestos removal?
- Confirm credentials and insurance directly with the asbestos removal, get a written quote, and run the Cowboy Checker on the business first. MyTrustedTraders helps you shortlist on the evidence. It doesn't replace your own checks before you hire.
