SERVICE SPECIALTIES

Asbestos Abatement

Asbestos is a naturally occurring material that’s extremely durable and very resistant to heat and chemicals. It was used extensively in the construction industry, which is why nearly every building built prior to 1980 may contain asbestos in some form. It may be found in wall insulation, paint, sprayed- or troweled-on surfacing materials, ceiling and floor materials, pipe, boiler and duct insulation, cement filler, and a variety of other products. Exposure to asbestos occurs when asbestos fibers of various sizes are released into the air and inhaled. Once they become embedded in your lungs, they can cause several types of diseases.

Asbestos is a serious threat and it’s our responsibility to safely remove all asbestos-containing materials and help eliminate those fears. At Precizion, we take great pride in our work and are fully committed to completing the job in a timely manner while maintaining the highest standards and care. Your safety and the safety of our employees is our top priority.

Lead Abatement

Lead is a significant threat found in older buildings. Because lead could be used to make paint dry faster, avoid moisture retention, and remain overall more durable, most buildings constructed before 1978 contain lead-based paint. Lead exposure can lead to serious health issues, particularly in pregnant women or children under the age of six, making lead-based paint especially dangerous. Even small amounts of lead can pose significant health risks. Over time, if an individual is exposed to high enough levels, lead poisoning can be fatal.

Lead poses such a significant threat that only Department of Health Services-certified supervisors and workers have the authority to prepare and perform lead abatement work. Precizion always employs the latest work practices, ensuring that we stay informed so you don’t have to. All our work is done precisely according to DHS, Cal/OSHA and EPA standards.

Mold Abatement

A common threat, mold is often found in both residential and commercial building demos. Mold can grow anywhere that moisture and oxygen are present. Outdoors, mold plays an important role in the natural ecosystem. Indoors, however, mold can pose a health risk, depending on the severity of the growth. Mold growth often occurs in areas where excessive moisture accumulates and can be easy to overlook. Once it grows in a home or other structure, it can cause allergies and pose a significant risk to those suffering from pre-existing health conditions.

Due to its airborne nature, Precizion will perform a complete containment using HEPA-Filtered Air scrubbers to fully eliminate it. Our experienced and trained workers will demo all affected materials and may also scrape and/or sand to fully clean the area.

Hazardous Soil Removal

Environmental hazards are nothing new. Soil contamination, soil pollution, or land pollution as a part of land degradation is caused by the presence of xenobiotic (human-made) chemicals or other alteration of the natural soil environment. It is typically caused by industrial activity, agricultural chemicals, or improper disposal of waste. Health consequences from exposure to soil contamination vary greatly depending on pollutant type, the pathway of attack, and the vulnerability of the exposed population.

Removal and handling of hazardous soils are among the most highly regulated forms of removal and disposal. That’s why, at Precizion Partners, our remediation experts are in compliance with all regulatory requirements. We work closely with all required health and regulatory agencies on critical changes and updates. All personnel are highly trained and experienced to ensure the complete removal of all traces of hazardous materials.

Featured Project

Remediation for St. Rose Hospital in Hayward, CA

Asbestos Abatement

St. Rose Hospital is an independent, non-profit community hospital in Hayward, CA. During a renovation project on one of the floors of the hospital, hazardous asbestos was found in the flooring. Many old buildings like this one were built with asbestos-containing materials that require a remediation contractor to assist in proper removal.

PALS was hired to abate 13,000 square feet of asbestos-containing floor tiles and mastic (a sealant or adhesive for the floor tiles). Cleanup entailed removing all the interior contents and installing plastic on all the walls and floors. This remediation process ensured that all hazardous materials were safely contained and removed, and any contaminated debris properly disposed of. Given PALS’ extensive experience providing asbestos abatement services, as well as strict adherence to timelines and industry-leading safety metrics, we are often called upon to work in highly sensitive buildings such as hospitals and schools.

Featured Project

Remediation for Central Elementary School in Tracy, CA

Asbestos Abatement

Central Elementary School in Tracy, CA was close to 100 years old and needed to be torn down for safety reasons. As with many older buildings, asbestos was present in many of the building materials and a full asbestos abatement was required before demolition could begin. The land was earmarked for future school fields and other small buildings, compounding the requirement for extensive and safe removal.

The project entailed the abatement of drywall, plaster, floor tile, boilers, roofing, and pipe removal throughout the buildings. The work was painstaking in the variety and complexity of the surfaces that PALS team members needed to address, even crawling under the buildings to remove pipes containing asbestos. All of this required delicate remediation work to ensure the asbestos didn’t become airborne and harm the school environment.

To add to the complexity of this asbestos abatement project, the Tracy Unified School District wanted to save the building’s historic exterior bricks. These red bricks proved extraordinarily difficult to remove in one piece. However, PALS team members carefully removed and cleaned 1,000 square feet of brick, going above and beyond to save as many large pieces as possible. School donors and town residents were then given the sanitary pieces of this historic building as mementos.

As your full-service remediation specialist with decades in the business, Professional Asbestos and Lead Services (PALS) LLC tackles your construction issues including asbestos, lead, and mold remediation, hazardous soil, and underground storage tanks. From commercial and school buildings to industrial structures and universities, there isn’t much we haven’t seen. Pair that with unparalleled adherence to timelines and we become the easiest part of your project.

Working with PALS has been great. They impressed me with their complete project scope, competitive pricing, responsiveness, along with effective and clean work onsite. I appreciated their strong management of the situation, helping me understand more about abatement requirements prior to the start of work.
