Licensed Asbestos Removal and Abatement Services

Atlas Contracting & Environmental Solutions provides full-scope asbestos abatement for residential, commercial, and institutional properties across Colorado's Front Range. Our team is structured for both emergency response and pre-planned construction support — whether you are renovating a Denver office building, demolishing a warehouse in Aurora, or managing a school district facility upgrade in Boulder.

Asbestos-containing materials were used extensively in construction through the early 1980s. Floor tiles, pipe insulation, ceiling textures, roofing materials, boiler wraps, and fireproofing sprays all commonly contain asbestos fibers. When these materials are disturbed — during renovation, demolition, water damage repair, or even routine maintenance — microscopic fibers become airborne and pose serious health risks including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer.

Atlas is certified under EPA Lead-Safe Certification No. NAT-F222667 and operates in full compliance with Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) regulations. Every abatement project includes documented containment design, negative-air pressure systems, HEPA filtration, worker protection protocols, licensed waste transport, and post-abatement clearance verification. We carry DUNS 117517457 and CAGE CODE 62FR3 for federal and institutional contract eligibility.

How Atlas Works

Our Regulatory-Certified Abatement Process

Every Atlas abatement project follows a documented, compliant process from initial assessment through final clearance. This structured approach protects building occupants, keeps your project on schedule, and ensures every regulatory requirement is met before the next trade mobilizes.

Phase 1

Assessment & Containment Design

Atlas reviews existing testing reports, confirms affected materials through independent sampling when needed, and designs the containment plan. This includes negative-air pressure calculations, decontamination unit placement, barrier wall construction specifications, and the work sequence that minimizes disruption to adjacent occupied spaces. We coordinate directly with your project manager, general contractor, or facility team to align the abatement schedule with the broader construction timeline.

Phase 2

Controlled Removal & Monitoring

Certified crews perform the abatement with full personal protective equipment, continuous air monitoring, HEPA-filtered negative air machines, and wet-removal methods that minimize fiber release. Every work zone is sealed with polyethylene barriers and access is restricted to authorized personnel. Atlas maintains real-time air sampling throughout the removal process and documents every phase for regulatory review. Whether the scope involves pipe insulation in a mechanical room or full floor-tile removal across a 50,000-square-foot commercial space, the protocols remain consistent and documented.

Phase 3

Clearance, Disposal & Turnover

After removal is complete, Atlas coordinates post-abatement clearance testing with independent third-party laboratories. Waste materials are double-bagged, labeled, transported by licensed haulers, and disposed of at CDPHE-approved facilities. We compile the full project documentation package — including waste manifests, air monitoring results, clearance certificates, and chain-of-custody records — so the property owner, project manager, or municipal inspector has everything needed for compliance sign-off and the next phase of construction.

Material Identification

Common Asbestos-Containing Materials in Colorado Buildings

Many Colorado buildings constructed before 1985 contain asbestos in materials that are not immediately obvious. Atlas crews are trained to identify, test, and safely remove all regulated asbestos-containing materials including the following common types found across the Front Range.

Floor Tiles & Mastic

9×9 and 12×12 vinyl asbestos tiles and the black mastic adhesive beneath them are among the most common asbestos materials in Colorado commercial and residential properties. Removal requires wet methods, HEPA vacuuming, and proper containment to prevent fiber release during demolition.

Pipe & Boiler Insulation

Friable pipe wrap, boiler jackets, and duct insulation are high-risk materials that release fibers easily when disturbed. Atlas removes these materials under full negative-air containment with continuous air monitoring to protect building occupants and workers.

Textured Ceilings & Popcorn

Spray-applied ceiling textures from the 1960s through early 1980s frequently contain chrysotile asbestos. Removal involves thorough wetting, careful scraping, and HEPA filtration to keep airborne fiber counts below regulatory thresholds throughout the process.

Roofing & Siding

Cement-asbestos shingles, transite siding, and built-up roofing felt are non-friable but become regulated during removal, cutting, or demolition. Atlas handles these materials with proper wetting, intact removal techniques, and compliant disposal.

Fireproofing & Spray-On

Spray-applied fireproofing on structural steel, decking, and walls is often friable and highly regulated. Atlas designs project-specific containment systems for these removals, including multi-chamber decontamination units and continuous perimeter air monitoring.

Joint Compound & Plaster

Drywall joint compound and some plaster formulations contain asbestos that becomes airborne during sanding, scraping, or demolition. Atlas tests suspect materials before any renovation work begins and removes confirmed asbestos-containing compounds under controlled conditions.

"This is an honest place. There are so many disreputable companies out there in this industry, but Atlas is not one of them. Quick work, proper abatement to prevent contamination, and friendly service all come with the fairly priced Atlas contract. Nobody wants to have this work done because it usually means things have gone sideways in your home. That said, if you do, call Atlas Contracting and Environmental Solutions; the company is ACES!!!"

"We had a roof leak in our kitchen caused by a roofer. Rob came out right away and assessed the issue and worked with myself and the roofer. That day he had made a plan for how the job would go, and began setting up equipment to keep my family safe. He walked me through every step of how the job would go and kept my husband and I informed throughout the process. He made sure that the toddler and newborn in my home would be safe throughout the entire demo process. I cannot recommend this company enough."

FAQ

Asbestos Abatement FAQ

Common questions about asbestos removal and abatement services in Colorado.

What is asbestos abatement?

Asbestos abatement is the safe identification, containment, removal, encapsulation, or management of asbestos-containing materials by certified professionals. Atlas Contracting holds EPA Lead-Safe Certification (NAT-F222667) and follows all Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) protocols for regulated abatement work across residential, commercial, and institutional properties along the Front Range.

Is asbestos dangerous if it is not disturbed?

In many cases intact asbestos-containing material is lower risk, but any renovation, mechanical impact, water damage, deterioration, or moisture event can release microscopic fibers into the air. Even minor disturbance during electrical or plumbing work can compromise friable materials. Atlas can inspect your property, assess the condition of suspect materials, and advise on the safest path — whether that means encapsulation, monitoring, or full removal before your next project phase begins.

Can I remove asbestos myself?

No. DIY asbestos handling is both dangerous and illegal in Colorado for regulated quantities. CDPHE requires certified abatement contractors, proper containment with negative-air pressure, HEPA filtration, personal protective equipment, and licensed disposal at approved facilities. Atlas crews are trained and equipped to handle every step of the process so property owners stay compliant and safe.

When should asbestos work be scheduled?

As early as possible in the planning phase — ideally before demolition permits are pulled or renovation trades mobilize. Atlas can help confirm testing results, design the containment plan, coordinate with your general contractor or project manager, and handle all documentation and turnover requirements so the project stays on schedule.

How much does asbestos abatement cost in Colorado?

Costs depend on the type of material, square footage, accessibility, and whether the building is occupied during work. Atlas provides detailed scoping and transparent estimates before any work begins. We have completed abatement projects ranging from single-room pipe insulation removal to full-building commercial demolition preparation across Denver, Colorado Springs, Boulder, and the surrounding Front Range.

Does Atlas handle both commercial and residential asbestos work?

Yes. Atlas is structured to handle both residential and commercial asbestos abatement, including multi-story office buildings, retail spaces, warehouses, schools, single-family homes, and multi-unit residential properties. Our team coordinates with property managers, building owners, general contractors, and municipal inspectors to keep every project compliant and on track.
