Can I remove asbestos siding myself in Beavercreek?
The short answer is no. Here's why DIY asbestos siding and roof shingle removal is illegal and dangerous.
You found asbestos in your Beavercreek home and got sticker shock from the removal quotes. Many homeowners near Wright-Patterson Air Force Base wonder if they can tackle this project themselves with the right gear and save thousands of dollars.
Asbestos siding and roof shingles were common in homes built before 1980. The fibers become dangerous when disturbed during removal, creating microscopic particles that can stay airborne for hours and cause lung disease decades later.
Professional removal typically costs $15,000 to $25,000 for a full house, depending on square footage and accessibility. The price reflects specialized equipment, containment systems, licensed disposal, and insurance requirements. Homes in older Beavercreek neighborhoods often have both siding and roof materials that contain asbestos.
Do not attempt this yourself. Ohio law requires licensed contractors for asbestos removal, and DIY removal can contaminate your entire house and neighborhood. You need containment barriers, negative air pressure systems, and hazmat disposal permits. Central Insulation Systems Inc. handles the licensing, equipment, and safe disposal so you avoid legal problems and health risks.
Once properly removed, you can install new siding and roofing without worrying about fiber exposure. Your family stays safe, your property value is protected, and you meet all legal requirements for future sales.
What people in Beavercreek say
"THEY DID A GOOD JOB AND I THOUGHT THE PRICE WAS REASONABLE."
"I worked with Kevin Con, their field specialist. Kevin talked to me over the phone for quite awhile to make sure that I had a good estimate and knowledge of the procedure. The team came out early and they were efficient in the processes. I would highly recommend them especially because they worked so closely with our roofing team to get the job done in one day."
"I am just so happy. They came out on a Tuesday (the owner Steve and his son) and took a look and had a crew of 2 out for me the next day! They got there at 8:30 am and all was completed by 2:00. The follow up was excellent. I could just go on and on. I am very impressed and want to insulate everything NOW because they were so excellent!"
