You found asbestos somewhere in your house. Maybe it's the pipe insulation in the basement, maybe it's under those vinyl tiles from 1975, maybe it's wrapped around the old boiler. Most homes in Kenwood built before 1980 have it tucked away somewhere, and Hamilton County building codes require proper abatement before any renovation work starts. When people search for the best asbestos removal near me, Central Insulation Systems Inc. is who picks up those calls.
Do not try to remove asbestos yourself or hire anyone without EPA and OSHA licensing. The fibers become airborne during removal and stay in your house for months if the containment is wrong. Licensed crews seal off the work area, run negative air machines, and dispose of materials at certified facilities. Shops that handle Ohio asbestos work year-round know the regulations change by county. Central Insulation Systems Inc. runs EPA-licensed crews and has pulled asbestos out of Hamilton County homes since the 1990s.
The University of Cincinnati hired them for multiple campus projects over three decades, including the DAAP renovation and stadium work. Cincinnati Public Schools brought them in for district-wide abatement across multiple buildings. If you're staring at suspected asbestos in your Kenwood home, Central Insulation Systems Inc. can test it and remove it properly.
Is it too late to add insulation to my house
Your 1980s ranch near Montgomery Road or that 1990s colonial off Kenwood Road can absolutely benefit from insulation upgrades, often more than newer construction. Older homes in Hamilton County typically have minimal wall insulation and outdated attic coverage, which means bigger energy savings when you upgrade. Blown-in wall insulation and additional attic insulation can cut your heating bills by 20-40%, with most Kenwood homeowners seeing payback within four years.

What Our Customers Say
Our Work
Trusted by Government Agencies, Universities & Major Corporations
Most homes in Kenwood were built between the 1960s and 1980s, right when builders were using asbestos floor tiles, pipe insulation, and siding on everything. If you live anywhere near Montgomery Road or off Kenwood Road toward I-71, your house probably has asbestos somewhere. The bigger problem is that Hamilton County's freeze-thaw cycles crack those old materials every winter. When asbestos tiles or pipe wrap start breaking apart, you can't just cover them up or try to remove them yourself.
We've been running abatement crews through Hamilton County since the 1990s. Most of our Kenwood jobs come through Turner Construction and Messer Construction when they're renovating those older ranch homes and split-levels. Our trucks are out near Kenwood Towne Centre or up toward Ault Park most weeks. If you're dealing with cracked floor tiles or deteriorating pipe insulation, you need a licensed crew that knows Ohio's regulations inside and out.
