Safeguarding The Built Environment Since 1983

Asbestos Testing & Removal

We continue to be the leading experts when it comes to asbestos abatement projects. Our founder, William Gallagher, started this company as an Architectural firm. The EPA created the AHERA program to regulate asbestos in schools in the early 1980’s. Mr. Gallagher became a pioneer in this new field, traveling the country teaching other architects and school districts how to comply with these new Government standards. From there, our environmental consulting division was born. Because we have been consultants for so long, we understand all regulations that impact abatement projects. We do not pick and choose one regulation from one agency to make it “fit” our project; we look at all five agencies that regulate our industry and ensure that we are following the most stringent of standards. When consulting clients would ask us to recommend abatement contractors we simply couldn’t, because we knew that most abatement contractors don’t fully understand all regulations, are not professional, and have had multiple fines.

Professional Asbestos Abatement

Our abatement division began in 2004, and was created to be the best, most professional asbestos abatement company in the country. As true experts that understand all facets of the industry, we do it better, safer, and more professional than any other contractor. We use state of the art practices and equipment to perform our service; we employ a full-time warehouse manager to ensure all of our equipment is kept running in optimal condition and well organized. Since we are located in Lancaster, PA a lot of our work is performed in and around the area (including York, Harrisburg, Lititz, Hershey, Coatesville, West Chester, Exton, and the Main Line). A lot of our work is performed in and around the area (including York….etc) however, we actually work all over the state of Pennsylvania.

Keeping your home and business safe from asbestos exposure

  1. If you suspect you have asbestos in your home or other building, have it tested or inspected by one of our state licensed asbestos inspectors.
  2. Do not disturb asbestos-containing materials. If asbestos is left alone it typically does not pose any health risks.
  3. Asbestos normally only needs to be removed prior to renovations or if its condition or environment has made it friable, or airborne.
  4. Never try to clean up asbestos yourself unless you have some training, PPE, and a proper HEPA vacuum.

Where Might Asbestos Be in the Home

Quality means doing it right when no one is looking.

It has been a pleasure working with EHC at Armstrong. Alex Henriquez did a great job explaining the work plan, and was very receptive to any small requests/changes we at Armstrong made. Elio Cirilo did an excellent job providing us with quick, accurate estimates.

Barb King (VP of Operations), Mark Andrechik (Inspector), Cathy Workinger (HR Manager/Office Administator), Wendy McCall (Estimating Administrative Assistant) ESPECIALLY, as well as the rest of the EHC team members I came into contact with have exemplified professionalism, promptness, compassion, and the highest quality in service for myself and my home over the past 10+ months at various times. Barb King directly responded to my every request and concern better than I could have asked for, and Mark went above and beyond to personally text me to discuss any concerns or questions I had about the Mold Test Results and Summary he provided. Mark and Barb King also continued to make themselves available to me for any questions long past the initial work had been completed and truly exemplified what every homeowner would hope to see and receive in quality of service amidst facing a crisis in their home.Though they may not be the “cheapest” option, rest assured you will thank your lucky stars for every additional cent you throw their way once you realize the outcome and peace of mind provided to you as a result. If you ask me, the peace of mind that you are receiving what you have paid for and more in and of itself is priceless...especially in these uneasy times through this pandemic.

This is the third time EHC has helped me with a problem and I couldn't be happier. This time Alex and his helper removed duct work with asbestos and did a fantastic job. Having asbestos is scary and these guys make it seem like an everyday occurrence. The office personnel are so kind and polite. This is a great company. Thanks EHC for your very professional, excellent work.

We contacted EHC, set up an appt and Mark came to visit and took readings. We suspected mold issues due to our Grandson was having a reaction every time he visited us recently. The testing indicated mold in our ducts. Art and Nelson came out and in 2 days the cleaning and treatment eradicated the issue. The whole process was seamless and we are confident it was totally taken care of.Art and Nelson were professional and courteous during this process, we couldn't have asked for more.

My experience with EHC Associates has been excellent. They have been so helpful from the moment I placed the first phone call to when I payed my invoice today. My family has been out of our house for remodeling for almost 2 months. When we were able to move back in it dawned on me that there was a chance that some of the old building materials that were removed could have contained asbestos. I called EHC to get my air tested to make sure it was safe for my family to move back in. I called on Monday and they were able to squeeze me in for the test that very same day. I paid to get my results expedited and I had the information back the next evening. The price was not outrageous either. Thank you EHC and a very special thank you to Wendy, Elio, & Cathy for being so friendly, professional, and informative. I am a supervisor for a customer service call center and I can tell you that they get an A+ in my book for the way they treated me as a customer!

EHC saved the day for us! During construction we encountered possible environment materials on our site. Because all of trades were lined up to do work on a very tight time schedule, I called EHC who sent a representative out within hours of my call. The rep took samples and by 2PM the next day I got a call with the results of the sampling (yea no hazardous materials!) thus allowing us to stay right on our construction schedule. Thank you EHC for saving the day!!!

I called E.H.C. with some questions about a property I'm buying. The person I talked to was very helpful and friendly. He basically told me that i don't need his services and went into detail to explain why. He really put my mind at ease about the purchase. I'm glad I don't need there help right now, but if I do, they'll get my business for sure!
