You're renovating a house built before 1980 and pulled up a floor tile. Or you found old pipe insulation wrapped around the boiler in the basement. Maybe it's the siding on that Madison Road bungalow you just bought. In Hamilton County, anything built before the 1980s likely has asbestos somewhere, and you can't see it until you start tearing into walls or floors. When people in Oakley search for the best asbestos removal near me, Central Insulation Systems Inc. is who picks up those calls.
Do not disturb it yourself. Asbestos becomes dangerous when it's broken apart and the fibers go airborne. The removal has to follow EPA and OSHA protocols: containment barriers, negative air pressure, certified disposal. Most contractors won't touch it because the licensing requirements are strict and the liability is high. Crews that handle Hamilton County asbestos work year-round know the regulations inside out. Central Insulation Systems Inc. runs fully licensed removal crews and has been doing EPA-compliant abatement since the 1990s.
They've handled asbestos removal across Cincinnati for three decades, including major projects at the University of Cincinnati campus and Cincinnati Public Schools. Most of the work comes through general contractors who've used them for years on renovation jobs throughout the area. If you found something that might be asbestos in your Oakley home, Central Insulation Systems Inc. can test it and remove it safely.
How do I know if my plaster has asbestos in it?
When you're comparing bids for your Oakley home, that suspiciously low quote probably means corners will be cut somewhere. Licensed contractors should explain exactly what R-value they'll install and how they'll air-seal around your ductwork and electrical boxes. Ask for references from recent jobs in Pleasant Ridge or Hyde Park, then drive by to see if the work looks professional from the outside.

What Our Customers Say
Our Work
Trusted by Government Agencies, Universities & Major Corporations
Most homes in Oakley were built between the 1940s and 1960s, which means you're dealing with asbestos in places you might not expect. If you live near Madison Road or anywhere close to Hyde Park, those vinyl floor tiles in the kitchen and basement probably have asbestos backing. The pipe insulation around your boiler and the popcorn texture on bedroom ceilings are red flags too. You can't just scrape this stuff off yourself. Hamilton County requires licensed removal, and there's a reason for that.
We've been running asbestos jobs across Cincinnati since the 1980s, with crews that know every type of house between Pleasant Ridge and Madisonville. Turner Construction brings us onto their Hamilton County projects when they need the abatement done right the first time. Most weeks you'll see our trucks parked outside older homes near the Observatory or working on commercial jobs along I-71. If you're staring at suspected asbestos tiles or insulation, you need someone who's been pulling this material out of Cincinnati houses for decades.
