Asbestos Abatement Services in Massachusetts

Safe, Compliant Asbestos Removal

Asbestos is hazardous and heavily regulated in Massachusetts. As a licensed asbestos abatement contractor, First Choice Demolition removes and disposes of asbestos-containing materials safely and in full compliance with state and federal law — so your demolition or renovation can proceed without risk or delay.

Where Asbestos Is Found

 Floor tiles, mastic, and sheet flooring

 Pipe and boiler insulation

 Ceiling tiles and textured coatings

 Roofing, shingles, and flashing

 Siding (transite) and joint compound

 Insulation (including vermiculite-adjacent materials)

Our Abatement Process

  • Inspection coordination

    Massachusetts requires a DLS-certified inspector to sample materials before most renovation or demolition work; we help coordinate this.

  • Notification

    We file the required asbestos removal notification (ANF-001 / AQ-04) with MassDEP and DLS at least ten (10) working days before work begins.

  • Containment

    Sealed, negative-air work areas with HEPA filtration.

  • Removal

    Trained, licensed crews remove ACM under strict 454 CMR 28.00 work practices.

  • Disposal

    Proper bagging, manifesting, and transport to approved disposal facilities.

  • Clearance

    Final cleaning and air clearance (independent project monitor coordinated as required).

Why Compliance Matters

Massachusetts asbestos work is enforced by MassDEP and the Department of Labor Standards, with notification to the local board of health and fire department. Non-compliance carries serious civil and criminal penalties. We handle the paperwork and the regulations so you don't have to.

Abatement + Demolition Under One Roof

Because we self-perform demolition, abatement, and mold remediation, you get one accountable team, one schedule, and one contract.
