Your house was built before 1980 and you're about to renovate. Maybe it's the basement pipes wrapped in white insulation, maybe it's those 9x9 floor tiles in the kitchen. You can't see asbestos, but in Oxford's older housing stock near Miami University and the Historic Districts, it's there. When people search for the best asbestos removal near me, Central Insulation Systems Inc. is who picks up those calls.
Do not disturb asbestos materials yourself. Even small amounts can become airborne and stay in your house for months. The removal requires EPA-licensed crews, containment barriers, and negative air pressure systems. Shops that handle Butler County work year-round know the regulations change depending on square footage and building type. Central Insulation Systems Inc. runs fully licensed abatement crews that follow OSHA and EPA compliance on every Oxford job.
They've been doing this work at Miami University for three decades, handling everything from pipe insulation to floor tile removal across multiple campus buildings. That's the level of experience you need for a 1970s house renovation. If you found asbestos in your Oxford home, Central Insulation Systems Inc. can assess what you're dealing with.
How do I know if my plaster has asbestos in it?
When you're getting wildly different quotes for insulation work around Miami University and the Historic Districts, the cheapest bid usually means corners get cut. Some contractors skip proper R-value calculations or use thin batts that leave gaps around outlets and pipes. Start by checking Ohio licensing through the state website, then ask each contractor for references from recent jobs near Hueston Woods or University Park so you can see their work firsthand.

What Our Customers Say
Our Work
Trusted by Government Agencies, Universities & Major Corporations
Most homes in Oxford date back to the early 1900s, when Miami University was expanding and families were building near campus. If you live in the Historic Districts or anywhere around University Park, you're dealing with original plaster walls, old pipe insulation, and floor tiles that were installed decades before anyone knew about asbestos. When you're renovating a kitchen or updating heating systems in these older homes, what looks like a simple project turns into an abatement job that needs EPA compliance.
We've been working with Ohio University and University of Cincinnati on asbestos removal for three decades, and those Butler County campus jobs taught us how to handle the same materials showing up in residential work. Our crews know the difference between 1920s pipe wrap and 1950s floor mastic. If you're staring at suspected asbestos in your Oxford home, you need someone who's been pulling this stuff out of old buildings since before the regulations changed.
