Asbestos Inspections and Management Planning for Commercial Buildings
Many commercial buildings in Northeast Ohio were constructed when asbestos-containing materials were commonly used in flooring, ceiling tiles, pipe insulation, and fireproofing. Before renovation or demolition work begins, a certified asbestos building inspection is required to identify and assess those materials.
SoCretely provides certified asbestos building inspections, bulk sampling, pre-renovation surveys, and asbestos management plan development for commercial property owners, developers, and facility managers throughout Northeast Ohio.
When Is an Asbestos Inspection Required?
- Before any renovation or demolition work that may disturb building materials
- When purchasing or selling older commercial property
- When developing an operations and maintenance program for a managed facility
- When OSHA or EPA compliance documentation is required
- When tenants or lenders require asbestos assessment documentation
