Can I remove asbestos siding myself in Delhi, OH?
The short answer is no. Here's why DIY asbestos siding & roof shingle removal is illegal and dangerous.
You found asbestos siding on your Delhi home and got sticker shock from removal quotes. Many homeowners in Hamilton County's older neighborhoods wonder if they can tackle this project themselves to save money. The answer is always no.
Asbestos siding was common in Delhi homes built before 1980. When disturbed, these materials release microscopic fibers that cause lung cancer and mesothelioma. Even sanding or drilling one small hole can contaminate your entire house and neighborhood.
Professional asbestos removal typically costs $15,000 to $25,000 for a typical Delhi ranch home. The price depends on your home's size, siding condition, and accessibility. This includes containment barriers, negative air machines, protective equipment, and special disposal at licensed facilities.
Call a licensed contractor for a free assessment this week. Ohio law requires special permits, air monitoring, and certified disposal for any asbestos work. Central Insulation Systems Inc. handles all permits and follows strict safety protocols to protect your family and neighbors. Attempting DIY removal can result in $25,000 fines and make your home unsellable.
Once properly removed, you can install new siding without health risks. Your family breathes safely, your property value recovers, and you avoid legal problems down the road.
What people in Delhi 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!"
