Core capability
Environmental Remediation & Abatement
Environmental work usually precedes or runs alongside demolition. Select self-performs abatement so that containment, removal, clearance, and demolition are planned as one sequence. When suspect materials surface mid-project, as they did behind the brick facade at MathWorks, crews adapt means and methods without handing the work to another contractor.
Scope
- Asbestos and lead abatement under full containment and glovebag methods
- Hazardous material removal and decontamination
- PCB remediation
- Soil remediation and mold remediation
- Bulk-loading and disposal of asbestos-containing facade and foundation materials
Where it applies
- Partially occupied residential and institutional buildings
- Bridges and industrial structures with coated steel and transite
- Projects where additional suspect materials are identified during demolition
- Work performed under Massachusetts DEP Nontraditional Work Plans
What we plan with you
- Survey review and regulatory notifications before mobilization
- Third-party air monitoring and clearance coordination
- Waste profiling, transport, and disposal documentation
- Sequencing abatement with demolition to avoid idle time
What we bring
- Licensed abatement supervisors and workers
- Negative air units, decontamination systems, and containment materials
- In-house training in asbestos, silica, PCB, and lead awareness
