Based in Tewksbury, MA, Morneault Environmental provides certified asbestos testing and removal services throughout Groton, MA and nearby communities. With Groton’s many colonial-style homes, historic properties, and public buildings—some near Gibbet Hill and the Groton Public Library—many structures in the area were built before 1978. That means asbestos is often present in insulation, flooring, ceilings, or siding materials. While laws started limiting asbestos use in 1978, some asbestos-containing construction materials are still legally used today. Whether you're updating an antique home or tearing down an old garage, asbestos must be tested for and professionally removed to protect your health and comply with regulations.

Founded by Tom Morneault, a former combat engineer in the U.S. Army, the company was built around the values of safety, service, and precision. We’ve carried those same principles into every asbestos project from Greater Boston to rural towns like Groton. Our mission is to make homes and businesses healthier and hazard-free. Whether you’re remodeling a farmhouse near West Main Street or investing in upgrades to a commercial space near the Groton Center, we’re here to help you do it safely. We handle asbestos detection and abatement with care and efficiency—making sure your space is safe for everyone who enters it.
Asbestos is a mineral-based material that was once a go-to choice in construction due to its strength and resistance to heat and chemicals. It’s commonly found in older insulation, vinyl flooring, siding, ceiling tiles, and pipe coatings—typical in homes built before 1980, especially in historic towns like Groton. When disturbed during repairs or demolition, asbestos becomes airborne and may be inhaled without immediate symptoms. Over time, exposure can cause mesothelioma, a rare and aggressive cancer, along with other lung conditions and respiratory issues. If you're renovating in Groton, don’t take chances—get your property tested before you swing a hammer.
In Groton, MA, many homes and commercial properties are over 40 years old—and that means asbestos materials could be hiding in the walls, ceilings, or floors. Disturbing these materials during repairs or upgrades can release harmful airborne fibers. Property owners are required by law to manage asbestos properly, or risk fines, halted projects, and health consequences. At Morneault Environmental, we provide asbestos inspections, laboratory testing, and full-scale removal services, with clear documentation for permit offices, realtors, or insurance carriers. We’ve worked in towns with similar architectural histories and understand the safest methods to work within older structures. No matter how big or small the job, we handle it with certified care and top-tier equipment to minimize disruption and maximize safety. Mesothelioma is a lethal cancer primarily caused by asbestos exposure. It progresses quietly over decades—often undetected until symptoms appear too late. Taking care of asbestos now could save lives later. Our experienced team helps Groton residents eliminate this serious risk through proactive abatement and expert support.
