Based in Tewksbury, MA, Morneault Environmental provides certified asbestos testing and removal services throughout Lancaster, MA and nearby towns. With buildings dating back to the 1700s and 1800s—especially in areas around the historic Lancaster Town Green and old farmsteads—many structures are likely to contain asbestos. Though some asbestos-containing materials were banned in 1978, others remain legal and in use today. For that reason, any renovation, demolition, or property transaction in Lancaster requires proper asbestos testing, regardless of the building’s age. Our team ensures safe testing and removal to keep you compliant and protected.

Asbestos is a natural group of minerals once used in construction for its fire resistance, strength, and insulating properties. Before the 1980s, it was common in insulation, ceilings, floor tiles, siding, and pipe coatings—especially in older homes and buildings found across Lancaster. Once asbestos-containing materials start to deteriorate or are disturbed during renovations, microscopic fibers may be released into the air. Inhaling these fibers can lead to serious illnesses like mesothelioma, lung cancer, and long-term respiratory problems. That’s why professional testing and safe asbestos removal is so important for property owners in Lancaster and surrounding areas.
In Lancaster, MA, where charming colonial homes and legacy commercial buildings are common, asbestos often lurks in pipe insulation, roof shingles, ceiling tiles, and building siding. These older materials can seem harmless—until construction, water damage, or age begins to break them down. State and federal laws require proper asbestos removal, especially before selling, renovating, or demolishing a structure. At Morneault Environmental, we offer full-service asbestos solutions including testing, removal, and disposal. We understand the challenges older Lancaster buildings present, and we treat each structure with care while following stringent safety guidelines. Our expert team helps property owners avoid legal risks, delays, and most importantly—health hazards. Trust us to restore safety with precision and professionalism. Asbestos exposure can result in mesothelioma, a rare and deadly cancer that targets the lungs and abdomen. Its long latency period means symptoms often appear decades after exposure, making prevention and early removal critical. Safe asbestos abatement isn’t just a precaution—it protects your family's future.
Asbestos can surface at the worst possible times—during renovations, after storm damage, or from accidents.
