Their experience with Ohio University's environmental projects over three decades shows the depth of expertise they bring to Ludlow's older building stock, where proper handling of hazardous materials requires both technical knowledge and regulatory precision that only comes from years of proven field work.
How can I tell if my pipes have asbestos insulation?
White or gray insulation wrapped around basement pipes in older Ludlow homes often contains asbestos, especially if your house dates back several decades. If the material is cracking or crumbling, stop entering that area immediately and do not touch or disturb it further. Get a sample professionally tested, then hire a licensed abatement contractor to either encapsulate the insulation with special coating or remove it completely.

Most homes in Ludlow sit on those hillsides overlooking the Ohio River, and a lot were built in the 1940s and 50s when asbestos was standard in everything. If you live anywhere in the Central Ludlow Historic District or near Ludlow Memorial Park, your house probably has asbestos floor tiles in the kitchen or basement, pipe insulation around the boiler, or siding that needs to come off before you can renovate. You can't just tear into that stuff yourself. It takes a licensed crew with the right equipment to pull it out safely.
We've been running asbestos jobs across Kenton County since the 1990s, working with Turner Construction and Messer on bigger projects around Cincinnati. Most of our Ludlow calls come through contractors who know we handle the old housing stock the right way. If you're dealing with asbestos in a house built before 1980, you need a crew that's been doing this work for decades.
