Asbestos is a naturally occurring group of minerals once widely used in building products for its strength and ability to resist heat and fire. It’s often found in older homes—especially in materials like pipe insulation, textured paints, siding, and roof shingles. When disturbed, these materials can release microscopic fibers that hang in the air. Breathing in those fibers can lead to serious diseases, including mesothelioma, asbestosis, and other lung issues. In Tewksbury, with its many homes and buildings predating 1978, the risk of exposure is very real during renovation or demolition activities. That’s why it’s essential to get asbestos testing and removal done by certified professionals before beginning any kind of construction work.

Throughout Tewksbury, many older structures—residential and commercial alike—contain asbestos in the walls, floors, ceilings, and around piping. While these materials may seem harmless when left untouched, any renovation, repair, or storm damage can disturb them and release airborne fibers. Property owners are required by law to address asbestos professionally before beginning any work to avoid legal or health issues. At Morneault Environmental, we provide asbestos testing, inspection, and certified removal services that meet all state and federal safety standards. We understand the historical nature of many Tewksbury properties and tailor our methods to the unique needs of each structure. Whether you’re a homeowner prepping for demo or a property manager coordinating updates, we deliver top-tier solutions to keep your project on time and your environment safe. Mesothelioma—the cancer most commonly caused by asbestos exposure—is aggressive and often undetectable until advanced stages, sometimes surfacing decades after exposure. By addressing asbestos early through professional abatement, you help prevent irreversible harm to your family, employees, or tenants. It’s a matter of safety, not just compliance.
