What Our Clients Say

Real experiences from satisfied customers.

Prime Environmental removed some asbestos containing flooring for me in April 2026. It had to be removed due to failed sewer line that required concrete removal in basement. I am happy to report that Jessie Adame's team were very professional. They followed all safety protocols and gave me a competitive price. I was lucky the glue below the flooring does not contain asbestos so I can do that part myself and save some money. All of my questions were answered, everyone knew their job and were a pleasure to work with. They also provided me with complete records, including photos of the project and the air quality report showing compliance. I highly recommend them!

Rebecca Gomez

Homeowner

When we bought our house last year in a Denver suburb, we had no idea that some of the walls contained asbestos. Prime Environmental came to the rescue after a flood from a broken pipe caused a kitchen wall to collapse, leading to a major asbestos spill. The Prime crew responded quickly and efficiently to seal off the house and clean up the mess, communicating to us every step of the way. While we unfortunately had to dispose of a lot of personal property, including ALL our major appliances, due to asbestos contamination, Prime made every effort to clean and preserve as many items as possible. All along, the project manager Jessie and his crew said their first concern was satisfying us, the customers, and I can honestly say they did just that.

Jessie and his crew were beyond professional. The job was finished in the time they said it would take. Every time I called Jesse, he returned my call. Who does that these days? I would highly recommend this company and that says a lot.

FAQ’s

Frequently Asked Questions

Can't find what you're looking for? Contact our support team.

How do I know if my building contains asbestos?

Thornton's original neighborhoods date to the 1950s, and homes built before 1980 have a high likelihood of containing asbestos. Lab testing is the only way to confirm it. We inspect and sample properties across Thornton and Northglenn.

Is asbestos removal always necessary?

No. Materials in good condition that stay undisturbed can often be encapsulated or left alone. Planning a remodel or demolition in Thornton is the point where professional assessment becomes essential.

How long does asbestos abatement take?

Most Thornton residential projects wrap in 1 to 3 days. Bigger jobs take longer, and because our office is minutes away, scheduling and mobilization tend to be fast.

Can I stay in my home during asbestos removal?

We recommend staying elsewhere during the work. The area is sealed under containment, and we confirm when clearance air testing shows it's safe to move back in.

How much does asbestos abatement cost in Thornton?

Costs track the amount of material, access, and complexity. Estimates are free and detailed after inspection. Most Thornton projects range from $1,500 to $30,000 or more.
