Asbestos work is not general contracting. Here is what to check before hiring in the Brooklyn area:

• Verify the license. Every firm on this page is verified against the NYS DOL register — each listing shows the license number so you can check it yourself.
• Test first, remove second. If asbestos is not yet confirmed, hire an independent testing & inspection firm before getting removal quotes. Independent testing keeps the diagnosis honest.
• Get at least three written quotes. A proper quote details containment, negative-air setup, waste disposal, and final clearance testing.
• Ask for the clearance report. After abatement, air samples analysed by an accredited lab confirm the area is safe to reoccupy. Do not pay the final invoice without it.
