A & B ENVIRONMENTAL CONSTRUCTION Inc.

The work was completed in a timely manner. They did leave behind some tape on the vents that I had to remove. Otherwise, the removal of our asbestos containing material was done professionally on time and with good value.

Very profesional, quick responses and flexible with schedules.

Job went great. Price was fair, permits were obtained quickly, and work was completed promptly. Communication was great; A&B communicated with us prior to providing the estimate to remind us the estimate was scheduled on the day of, prior to starting the job, and immediately after the job was done to provide certification of job completion/asbestos removal. No complaints!

Francisco came to my home to do an estimate for asbestos tape removal around the opening in the ducts in my living space. He was 20 minutes late to the appointment (which wouldn't have been a huge deal had the next part not happened) but when he was inspecting the vent, he reached in and pulled out a piece of asbestos tape with his bare hands and laid it on our floor! It was frayed. This was in our living area where my young kids walk though, play, and crawl on the ground. He didn't spray it with water, didn't put plastic down first, and definitely didn't follow any of the safety protocols. I was/am mortified and I immediately started to wet wipe the area (to include picking up the asbestos piece myself) and told him I was concerned that he did that. He just watched me clean up and didn't say anything other than I shouldn't wipe inside the vent or it could disturb some dust which may have fibers in it. Now I'm concerned I have fibers in my duct (I had an air test a few days prior to this and it was clean) and air. When he left, he said that someone would call me the next day for a quote and I never received a call. I would 100% not hire this company because they don't seem to follow proper safety protocols. Makes me wonder about all these good reviews. Did anyone watch them to make sure they were being safe about the removal?

Prompt service

They were amazing. Francisco was timely in all phone calls. Emails. Services. I can’t say enough how friendly and professional they were. Francisco and the entire team went above and beyond to remedy the situation. Everything is great now!

Work was performed very well. No complaints.

I contacted A&B to remove a water damaged tile floor totalling 500 sq. feet in 3 rooms. They provided a phone estimate and I asked them for an estimate in person because of the unique situation at the house. They arrived promptly and confirmed the same amount from the phone estimate. They completed the work quickly and efficiently. Very pleased with how the job was completed.

See above.

The work was done quickly and effectively. I can't believe what a great job they did!

We are looking to upgrade our old furnace to central air. In the process of obtaining estimates, asbestos was discovered in the old pipes. I contacted A & B Environmental Construction Inc. (“A&B”) for information on testing and removal. Liz helped me set up an appointment. Francisco Lomeli arrived on time, on the scheduled date, to conduct testing. Francisco was very thorough. After confirming that asbestos was, in fact, what was coating the old pipes, he explained in detail what would be done, and a date for removal was set. Once again, Francisco, this time with his team, showed up on time. The process took a total of three days (set-up, removal and clean-up). Every member of Francisco's team was very professional. Upon completion of the project, an inspector was called to conduct a final test. Everything tested clean. As a homeowner, asbestos removal sounds daunting. However, A&B made the process easy; they were fast and professional. I recommend A&B without reservation. Their level of experience and professionalism is extremely rare and very valuable in this day and age.

Excellent service and price. Would definitely hire again.

Francisco was extremely responses and explained to entire process. His team did all the work to properly pull the permits with Cook county and completed the work quickly and completely. I would recommend his team to anyone based on the quality of their work and competitive pricing.

Very well. Work completed without issues.

A & B had good follow through from initial appointment to finalizing the quote. They removed possibly asbestos contaminated vermiculite from the attic and the loose insulation on top of it in an older bungalow. They set up appropriate precautions to make sure there was no contamination of the lower floors. The work was done in a day and half. The attic passed inspection with no issues.

No problems, they were at my house while I was at work, all finished when I got home. Carpeting and tile gone, the floor cleaned and sealed. They measured the Asbestos content in the air and left a good quality final report.

Francisco explained the removal process to my parents. He provided documentation showing he was a certified and licensed asbestos remover. He showed up on time, protected the area and monitored the air. The removal process went well and the price was fair. I would use them again and recommend them to anyone.

I appreciated the prompt service and analysis results. It allowed me to go forward with my project. At the time of the sample collection, I was told verbally that the sample most likely did not contain asbestos. The lab results confirmed that information and I was satisfied. I don't know how the cost of $100 compares to others. Was glad to have it done in a very timely manner.

Reached out to a number of companies on quotes and Francisco over the phone gave me a reasonable quote. They came over the next day to just do a visual check and said the price they quoted on the phone was right on and they could have it done as soon as the permits came in. They showed up at 9am 10 days later and had finished by 3pm so it went smoothly and quickly. they did the prep work needed, took care of the tile and mastic and came back the next day for the air check and once it passed, took down everything and left. It was easy, quick and very professionally done. I think they did a great job and it met my high standards so i recommend them to anyone looking for friendly and cost effective asbestos removal.

They removed asbestos-containing roof shingles from the house and garage, covering an area of about 1800 sq. feet. They arrived on time, the work was done carefully, quickly, very clean, well organized. Clean-up afterwards was excellent. Francisco is very pleasant and responsive. The work passed inspection easily, no problems. Highly recommended.

I called this company for a quote. Francisco came out with his father the next evening. Their quote was competitive. This is a family run company with a great personality. They assured me the work would be done properly with HEPA filters and air quality testing afterwords. Either Francisco or his father were at the work site both days.They assured the basement was cleaned. All the tile and mastic was completely removed. I was left with a very clean cement basement floor. I was very happy with the work. They were done within 1.5 days. The price was right. I would highly recommend this local company.
