Environmental Services of America (ES America) performs licensed asbestos removal across Augusta and Richmond County from our office at 3540 Wheeler Rd, Suite 3001. We are a Georgia-licensed asbestos abatement contractor (GA ASBRN-382008), EPA/AHERA/ASHARA accredited (Cert #20616), and insured ($1M/$3M general liability and umbrella). In business since 2009, we handle both homes and commercial buildings: testing, containment, removal, and certified disposal.
The cost of asbestos removal in Augusta depends on the material, the amount, its location, and how it's accessed, so we price each job after an inspection rather than quoting a flat rate. Small, contained jobs (for example, a section of floor tile or pipe insulation) cost far less than a whole-house or commercial abatement with full containment and air clearance. The most accurate number comes from a survey; request a free quote and we'll scope it to your building.
Asbestos removal follows a controlled, regulated sequence so fibers never become airborne:
Yes. Before you remove asbestos or demolish any older Augusta structure, a survey is required to identify asbestos-containing materials. Federal NESHAP rules require a thorough inspection before demolition or renovation, and Georgia EPD enforces this statewide. Skipping the survey risks fines and, more importantly, exposure. ES America can inspect first, then remove: one licensed contractor for the whole process.
Augusta has a large stock of pre-1980 housing (including the historic Summerville, Olde Town, and Harrisburg districts) plus older commercial, textile-mill, and institutional buildings, so asbestos-containing materials are common here. Watch for it in:
If your building predates the 1980s and you're renovating or demolishing, have suspect materials tested before you disturb them.
Environmental Services of America has removed asbestos safely across Georgia since 2009.

Every project is documented from survey through air-clearance and disposal, so homeowners get peace of mind and commercial clients get the compliance paperwork they need.

★★★★★ "I own Koala Insulation of Atlanta Perimeter North and a client had a dry wall issue and had concern that the dry wall might have asbestos. I contacted ESA to do an analysis prior to continuing insulation removal and replacement. They were promo efficient and fast in assessing the situation which enabled us to get back with the customer to complete the job. GREAT SERVICE - they are in my contact list for future needs!"

For anything beyond very small amounts, no. Georgia requires asbestos abatement to be performed by a licensed contractor, and improper removal can release fibers and trigger fines. Homeowners doing minor work on their own residence have narrow exceptions, but testing and professional removal are strongly recommended.
It depends on the material, amount, location, and access, so ES America prices each job after an inspection rather than a flat rate. Small contained jobs cost far less than whole-house or commercial abatement with full containment and air clearance. Request a free quote for an accurate number.
Most residential jobs are completed in one to a few days. Larger commercial or pre-demolition abatements take longer because of containment, the 10-working-day NESHAP notification lead time, and air-clearance testing.
Yes. Federal NESHAP rules require a thorough asbestos inspection before demolition or renovation, and Georgia EPD enforces this statewide. ES America can inspect first and then remove, handling the whole process under one licensed contractor.
