What Affects the Cost of Residential Asbestos Removal

If you have discovered asbestos in your property, there is no time to wait. You have to act fast and contact a professional before the situation becomes worse. Unfortunately, homeowners can often hesitate to contact a professional due to uncertainty around the cost of residential asbestos removal.

The good news is asbestos removal is not expensive. While there is a cost, it is worth it in the long run as it will protect you and your loved ones from the invisible dangers of asbestos.

But what exactly impacts the cost of residential asbestos removal, and how much can a homeowner expect to pay?

Factors That Influence the Cost of Residential Asbestos Removal

Just like any service-based job, the biggest factor impacting the cost of residential asbestos removal is the size of the project. To fully determine the amount of asbestos in your property, an asbestos test is performed, that can range anywhere between $200 to $800.

The process of removing asbestos is called asbestos abatement. Again, the price here can vary depending on the amount of asbestos. As a general rule of thumb, you can expect to pay around $10 per square foot. However, this is just for asbestos in the walls. If asbestos is in hard-to-reach places such as the floor or ceiling, this price can quickly double or triple.

Finally, the company you choose to work with will also impact the cost of asbestos removal. Some companies may employ multiple workers, adding to the cost of the project. Additionally, the equipment used, and certification/experience possessed will also influence the cost.
