Safe, compliant, and hazard-free floor tile and black mastic abatement for residential, commercial, and industrial properties statewide.
If your Michigan property was built or renovated prior to 1981, there is a high probability that your flooring contains asbestos. Most commonly found in traditional 9” x 9” vinyl tiles, asbestos was heavily integrated into floor materials and the sticky adhesive backing underneath to add structural durability and heat resistance.
While intact floor tiles are generally considered non-friable, the moment they are cracked, scraped, or sanded during a home renovation, they release microscopic, toxic fibers into the air.
At Michigan Asbestos Pros, we specialize in professional asbestos tile removal in Michigan, providing home and business owners with total peace of mind and bulletproof safety compliance.
We do not take shortcuts. Every single tile project we handle follows a strict multi-step safety protocol that meets or exceeds MIOSHA Part 602 and EPA NESHAP mandates.
We seal off the workspace using heavy-duty, 6-mil poly plastic sheeting and set up true HEPA negative air pressure machines to trap any escaping particles.
Our technicians use specialized amended water solutions to thoroughly saturate the tiles before lifting them. Wetting the material prevents toxic dust from ever turning airborne.
After pulling up the structural tiles, we safely dissolve and strip away the underlying black mastic adhesive using specialized, industry-approved techniques.
The entire subfloor is meticulously vacuumed using certified HEPA vacuums. Before our containment zones come down, strict air clearance testing is performed to prove your building is completely safe for re-entry.
Flooring removal involving asbestos requires careful handling to avoid contamination and delays.

Attempting to scrape, grind, or mechanically remove black mastic without specialized containment creates a massive environmental hazard. Our team utilizes advanced asbestos floor tile mastic remediation techniques, implementing specialized chemical wetting agents and negative-air pressure enclosures to completely neutralize and lift the adhesive safely.

In some cases, encapsulating old vinyl floor tiles with a new layer of underlayment and flooring is legally permissible if the original tiles are completely undisturbed, flat, and intact. However, if the old tiles are crumbling, lifting, or if you plan to do structural renovations later, a complete removal is highly recommended to preserve your property’s future equity and health standards.
The total investment depends primarily on the total square footage, the condition of the existing tile, and whether the underlying black mastic adhesive must be completely removed to lay down a new adhesive or stain. Contact us today for a precise, free, clear on-site estimation.
Visually, it is impossible to be 100% accurate, though 9”x9” tiles from the 1950s–1970s are highly suspect. We strongly advise having a small sample safely analyzed by an accredited testing laboratory before starting any DIY demolition.
