About US Asbestos Contracting

US Asbestos Contracting was founded in Columbus, Ohio with a single mission: to give Central Ohio families and businesses a trustworthy, transparent, and technically excellent option for one of the most consequential decisions a property owner can make — handling asbestos.

Today, we are one of the largest licensed asbestos abatement contractors in Central Ohio, with over 3,000 completed projects, a perfect Ohio Department of Health licensing record, and an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. But we still operate by the same principles we did on day one: do excellent work, charge fair prices, and treat every property as if it were our own family's home.

Our Story

We started in a single truck working out of a Columbus garage, taking on residential popcorn ceiling jobs that larger contractors found too small to bother with. Our founder believed that homeowners deserved the same expert care and transparent pricing that Fortune 500 companies received — at prices regular Columbus families could actually afford.

That philosophy fueled our growth. Word spread through Columbus neighborhoods. Real estate agents began referring us. Property managers signed master service agreements. Today we operate a fleet of fully-equipped abatement vehicles, employ over 30 EPA-certified technicians, and serve clients ranging from first-time homebuyers in Hilliard to multi-billion-dollar corporate campuses.

Through it all, we've stayed family-owned and Columbus-headquartered. Our office at 875 N High St in downtown Columbus is staffed by people who live in the same neighborhoods we serve, send their kids to the same schools, and shop at the same stores. When you call us, you're calling neighbors.

Our Core Values

Safety First, Always

Every decision begins and ends with safety — for our crews, your occupants, and the environment. We exceed OSHA and EPA requirements on every project, not because we have to, but because lives depend on it.

Radical Transparency

No hidden fees. No mid-project surprises. No fine print. Every estimate is itemized. Every project includes daily updates. Every test result is shared regardless of outcome.

Technical Excellence

Asbestos abatement is a highly technical, highly regulated discipline. We invest heavily in training, equipment, and continuing education so that every crew member operates at the top of their craft.

Community Commitment

Columbus is our home. We sponsor local youth sports, donate inspections to qualifying low-income families, and participate in community rebuilding projects after natural disasters.
