Based in Tewksbury, MA, Morneault Environmental provides certified asbestos testing and removal services for North Reading and surrounding Massachusetts towns. From the historic homes along Haverhill Street to colonial-era structures dotted throughout neighborhoods like Ipswich River Park and Batchelder School areas, many buildings here were built before 1978—when asbestos was still widely used. Although some asbestos materials were banned in early 1978, others remain legal and are still present in modern construction. That’s why professional asbestos testing is critical before any renovation or demolition—no matter the age of the property.

Asbestos is a durable, heat-resistant mineral once commonly used in construction materials like floor tiles, insulation, and ceiling panels. In homes built before 1980, like many in the North Reading area, there’s a high chance asbestos is lurking in the walls, attic, or basement. When disturbed during a remodel, storm damage, or demolition, asbestos fibers can become airborne and enter your lungs without notice. Over time, this exposure can lead to mesothelioma, lung scarring, and other respiratory problems. That’s why residents in North Reading need certified testing and removal before altering any older structure.
North Reading has its fair share of aging buildings—many still containing asbestos in materials like plaster, insulation, and siding. If disturbed, these materials release toxic dust that poses serious health and legal risks. Property owners must comply with federal and state regulations for proper handling and disposal. Failing to do so can halt a project or even put your family's health in danger. At Morneault Environmental, we offer full-service asbestos inspection, testing, and removal compliant with all safety and disposal laws. Our skilled team knows how to work carefully in residential homes and high-traffic commercial settings alike. Whether you’re upgrading an old school building or finishing a home remodel, we’ll eliminate the risk and leave the space hazard-free. Mesothelioma is a deadly cancer linked directly to long-term asbestos exposure. It attacks the lining of the lungs and can take 20-50 years to show symptoms—often when it’s too late to treat effectively. Our goal is to protect lives by stopping asbestos exposure before it ever starts. Let us make your home or business safe again with professional abatement services.
