Based in Tewksbury, MA, Morneault Environmental provides certified asbestos testing and removal services throughout Townsend and surrounding communities. From the historic town center and charming Colonial homes to properties near Harbor Pond and along Route 119, Townsend is filled with older structures—many built before 1978. These properties are likely to contain asbestos in ceilings, flooring, siding, and insulation. While some asbestos-containing materials were banned starting in 1978, many are still legal and used in construction today. That’s why testing is crucial—whether you're renovating, buying, or demolishing, asbestos must be identified and properly removed to protect your health and remain code-compliant.

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral often used in older construction materials because it’s fire-resistant and durable. It’s commonly found in insulation, floor tiles, roofing, siding, and pipe wrapping—especially in buildings built before 1980. When these materials are disturbed, tiny fibers become airborne and inhaled. Exposure to asbestos over time can cause serious health problems, including mesothelioma, lung scarring, and other respiratory conditions. In Townsend, where historic buildings are widespread, hidden asbestos is a real risk during renovations. That’s why thorough testing and removal by licensed professionals is critical for homeowners and business operators alike.
In Townsend, many older homes and businesses still harbor asbestos materials in their walls, ceilings, and flooring. Once any construction or remodeling begins, these materials can release dangerous fibers into the air. Property owners are legally required to comply with strict asbestos handling and disposal laws. Hiring a certified professional isn’t just important—it’s necessary to avoid fines, keep your family or tenants safe, and avoid delays in building permits or real estate transactions. Morneault Environmental offers trusted asbestos inspection, testing, and safe removal tailored for Townsend’s diverse property types—from quiet residential neighborhoods to historical commercial structures. We know how to navigate state requirements and protect your property while staying on schedule. Our experienced team operates with precision, using the right equipment and training to get the job done right—every time. Mesothelioma is a deadly cancer directly linked to asbestos exposure. It may take 20 to 50 years to develop, and by the time symptoms show, treatment options are limited. That’s why proactive asbestos abatement isn’t just a smart move—it’s lifesaving. We help eliminate this silent danger to safeguard your family, employees, or tenants for years to come.
