Falcon Residential Asbestos Removal & Testing
Safe asbestos testing and removal for Falcon homes built before 1980.
How We Test and Remove Asbestos
If you own or rent a home in Falcon built in the 1970s or earlier, asbestos in insulation, floor tiles, pipe wrap, or popcorn ceilings isn't just a cosmetic concern—it's a health hazard. When those materials age, crack, or get disturbed during renovation, they release fibers into the air your family breathes. You can't see or smell asbestos, which is why testing comes first. We help you know what you're dealing with before anyone else gets hurt.
Our process starts with a visual inspection of suspect materials throughout your home—basement pipes, attic insulation, garage walls, and anywhere you suspect pre-1980 construction. We collect samples following EPA protocols and send them to a certified lab. Once results come back, we walk you through your options: encapsulation (sealing it in place safely) or full abatement (removal by trained specialists). Whether your home sits near Meridian Road, Woodmen Hills, or the Black Forest edge, we coordinate with your family's schedule and any HOA requirements in El Paso County.
Removal work is done by licensed abatement technicians in full containment to prevent fiber spread. We use HEPA filtration, seal work areas, and dispose of all materials according to state and federal law. Your home is tested again after removal to confirm the space is clean. We provide you with all documentation for your records, your HOA, or future buyers—proof that the job was done right.

What Our Asbestos Assessment Covers
We inspect every room where asbestos commonly hides: basement walls and pipe insulation, attic insulation and ductwork, garage shelving and roof decking, kitchen cabinets, and any original flooring or wall materials. We also check attic entries, crawl spaces, and mechanical areas. In Falcon homes, especially those in Meridian Ranch or on properties with open-land dust exposure, settled fibers can accumulate in ventilation, so we pay close attention there too.
During the walkthrough, we photograph suspect materials, note their condition (intact, friable, or deteriorating), and identify the rooms most at risk. We explain what we're seeing in real time so you understand the scope. Samples go to the lab within 48 hours; results typically arrive in 5–7 business days. You get a detailed report with lab confirmation, our recommendations, and a clear timeline for next steps—so you can plan repairs, budget, and protect your family.
Use this checklist to spot potential asbestos in your Falcon home and know what to expect during our inspection.
- Home built before 1980—check deed, property records, or builder info
- Pipe insulation in basement, attic, or crawl space (looks like gray/white wrapping or spray-on coating)
- Popcorn ceilings or textured wall spray (common in 1960s–1970s homes)
- Floor tiles, vinyl sheet flooring, or adhesive in kitchens or bathrooms (asbestos in binders)
- Attic insulation that is loose-fill, pink, or white fiberglass-like material (may contain asbestos)
- Furnace or water heater wrap, ductwork tape, or gasket materials
- Garage walls, shelving, or roofing materials (especially on older additions)
- Any materials visibly crumbling, peeling, or damaged from age or water exposure
- Recent home renovation or repair work that stirred up dust or old materials
- Basement sump pump, radon mitigation, or HVAC work in the last 5 years (may have disturbed old insulation)
- Family history of respiratory issues or unexplained health concerns (potential prior exposure)
If you check three or more items, call us for a free phone consultation. We'll ask a few quick questions and schedule a full assessment if needed.

Falcon Residential Asbestos Removal & Testing FAQ
How long does the inspection take?
A typical asbestos assessment for a 2,000–3,000 sq ft home takes 2–3 hours. We walk through every room, take samples, and explain our findings on the spot. You're welcome to follow along or ask questions anytime.
Do I need to leave my home during the inspection?
No. We use non-invasive sampling methods—a small material chip or swab. No air is disturbed, and the home stays safe for you and your family. If removal is needed later, that's when you may want to step out, and we'll give you a clear timeline.
What if the test comes back positive for asbestos?
Don't panic. Most asbestos in homes is harmless if left undisturbed. We'll explain your options: seal it in place (encapsulation), remove it safely (abatement), or monitor it over time. We'll also give you a detailed estimate and timeline so you can plan and budget.
