Security-Widefield Residential Asbestos Removal & Testing
Safe asbestos testing and removal for Security-Widefield homes—protect your family from hidden hazards.
How We Test and Remove Asbestos from Your Home
If your Security-Widefield home was built before the 1980s, materials like insulation, floor tiles, roofing, and pipe wrap may contain asbestos. You can't see it or smell it, but disturbing it during renovation, repair, or even normal wear releases fibers into the air your family breathes. That's why testing comes first—and why we handle removal safely, not as a DIY project.
We start with a visual inspection of suspect materials in your living spaces, basement, attic, or garage. Samples are collected carefully and sent to a certified lab for analysis. If asbestos is found, we develop a removal plan that minimizes exposure—whether that means encapsulation, safe abatement, or disposal. Our team follows all EPA and Colorado regulations, and we coordinate with your schedule so your family can stay safe during the process.
Throughout El Paso County, from Fontaine Boulevard to Marksheffel Road and the Fountain-Fort Carson corridor, we've helped homeowners and landlords address asbestos before it becomes a health or resale liability. We document everything, so you have proof of professional remediation for your records and future buyers.

What Our Asbestos Assessment Includes
We conduct a thorough walk-through of your home, focusing on high-risk areas: basement mechanical systems, attic insulation, kitchen and bathroom tile, pipe insulation, roofing materials, and any weathered or damaged spots. We note age, condition, and disturbance risk.
Samples are collected using proper containment protocols and analyzed by a certified third-party lab. You receive a detailed report identifying materials, asbestos content (if any), and our recommendations for safe handling or removal. If testing confirms asbestos, we outline next steps and timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
Use this checklist to identify potential asbestos hazards in your Security-Widefield home and know when to call us.
- Home built before 1980 (highest risk window for asbestos-containing materials)
- Basement insulation on pipes, boiler, or ductwork showing age, wear, or loose fibers
- Attic insulation that is fluffy, gray, or friable (easily crumbles)
- Kitchen or bathroom floor tiles (especially vinyl, 9×9 or 12×12 inch squares) with adhesive underneath
- Roofing or siding materials original to the home or installed before 1985
- Popcorn ceiling texture (common asbestos source in older homes)
- Around-window caulking or weatherstripping that is crumbling or peeling
- Furnace or water heater wrapped in tape or blanket-like material
- Any prior water damage, mold, or pest intrusion that disturbed insulation or old materials
- Planned renovation, basement remodel, or attic access without professional assessment
- Family members with respiratory issues or history of environmental sensitivity
- Rental property or home in transition (landlords: tenant health and liability protection)
If you check three or more items, or if you're unsure, call us for a professional assessment. We can test before you renovate, repair, or list your home.

Security-Widefield Residential Asbestos Removal & Testing FAQ
Should I test my home for asbestos before I renovate?
Yes. If your Security-Widefield home was built before 1980, asbestos testing before renovation is essential. Disturbing asbestos-containing materials releases fibers and creates a serious health risk. We can test quickly so you know exactly what you're dealing with before you start any project.
How long does asbestos testing and removal take?
Testing usually takes one visit (1–2 hours for sample collection). Lab analysis takes 5–7 business days. If asbestos is found and removal is needed, timeline depends on the scope—small encapsulation jobs may take a day or two, while larger abatement can take longer. We'll give you a clear schedule upfront.
Do you serve renters, or just homeowners?
We serve homeowners, renters, and landlords throughout Security-Widefield and El Paso County. Renters: contact your landlord or property manager if you suspect asbestos. Landlords and property managers: we help you manage liability and ensure tenant safety before issues arise. Call us to discuss your situation.
What if asbestos is found in my basement insulation or attic?
We'll assess the material's condition and disturbance risk. If it's in good shape and undisturbed, encapsulation may be an option. If it's damaged, friable, or a renovation risk, safe removal is the best choice. We handle the entire process following EPA regulations so your family and home are protected.
Can I remove asbestos myself?
No. DIY asbestos removal is illegal in Colorado and extremely dangerous. Improper handling releases fibers that can cause serious respiratory disease years later. We're trained and equipped to do it safely and compliantly. Protect your family and your home's value—let us handle it.
When should I call you about asbestos?
Call us if you're planning a renovation, noticed crumbling insulation, have an older home you're selling, or just want peace of mind. Early detection and professional assessment save money and headaches. Reach us at (719) 282-0997 or visit our website to schedule an inspection.
