Affordable Environmental Inc

Team established a clean area for entry and exit from the rooms with asbestos.  The removal was done quickly and efficiently. 
Asbestos removal is expensive, and this service certainly was, but we have no complaints about the quality of the service.  We needed the work to be done quickly so that we could bring in another contractor.  They started on time and finished a day early.
We could not have asked for more.

Tony came out, gave us an estimate and thoroughly explained their abatement process. We decided to move forward and scheduled his team to come about two weeks later.
I budgeted a little extra time for them, as I do for all home contracting services, and it was a good thing because they needed an extra day to complete the work. That said, once they got started, they set up the containment rooms quickly but carefully and removed all of the popcorn ceilings in two 13 x 13 rooms in about two days. I was really surprised at how great the ceilings looked afterwards, I was expecting them to be completely ruined. (I've heard from numerous folks, including from Tony, that they just can't guarantee what the condition of the ceiling will be.) I had previously scheduled drywall contractors to come and repair the damage, I'm still having them come to repair some of the edges, but there is much less work than I originally had thought there would be.
On this note, one thing I learned from the process is that it's generally not the easiest job on your house since they have to basically create an impervious clean room. Therefore, I would never recommend doing this process after you have freshly painted any walls or trim, if I wasn't planning on painting afterwards, I would be somewhat distressed about the condition of some of the paint and trim. I'm pretty sure this would be the case with any company doing this type of work and Tony was very explicit that they need to tape things down so this could happen - so no surprises here.
After they completed the work, I came by in the evening to inspect it and they had missed a vent in the wall. I emailed that night and the next morning they had an entire crew out to make sure they finished the job as promised. Mistakes or oversights can happen, but the true mark of a customer service oriented company is how they handle them and Tony and his office manager, Stacey did a great job and completed everything the very next day to my complete satisfaction!
I hope I never have to deal with popcorn ceilings again, but if I do I will absolutely hire Affordable Environmental to do the work!

Fantastic work, great price, friendly people.

Tony and Affordable repeatedly, over and over again, superseded my expectations.  This company leaves them all in the dust.  If your reading this, and have been patient enough to be at this part (I realize this is probably the longest review ever), there is nothing I can say that will do this company justice.  Do yourself a favor, and, at the very least, call them and get an estimate.  They took such good care of me, and will take good care of you to.

I called Tony after I was stood up by another abatement company which shall remain nameless (but they got great reviews from others on Angie's List). I believe it was because my job was very small and the other company had bigger jobs that came up. This was a problem because I had another contractor lined up to do finish work after the abatement. Tony was very understanding and sent out a crew almost IMMEDIATELY. Not only that, his bid for the work was $200 LESS than the first company! They did a great job - and much quicker than expected! We will definitely use Affordable Environmental again when we remove our popcorn ceilings!

They were very efficient and very clean. They showed up, did the job, they were on time, and they were very nice people.

Overall this was a very good experience. Tony was very professional and the workers were careful in their work. Since we had a cold spell they delayed the actually start of project until we could not worry about not running the heat. Their bid was very competitive and their work was excellent. Ceilings ended up in good shape with just some minor touchup needed. a little damage from tape on the walls, but that was not unexpected. They left the place very clean afterwards, wife was pleased. Comments from 2 drywallers looking at the post work said they thought they did an excellent job on the ceilings. I would definitely use them again and recomend them.

Tony promptly showed up for the estimate appointment and sent a written estimate. We liked what we heard and worked with him to setup an appointment. The crew came on time and completed the job within the promised time frame. Later, I got the clearance certificate from their office and Tony explained that report to me over the phone. I am pleased with the excellent condition in which they left the ceiling drywall. The popcorn ceiling was painted on by the previous homeowner, but Tony's crew managed to get it off without causing damage to the drywall behind the popcorn layer.

Tony from Affordable Environmental was very responsive, giving a quote over the phone during our first call. It was nice to have the quote so fast, though I question how accurate it can be without ever having seen the job site. Based on other companies we talked to their price came in on the high side (their name is a little misleading), but we ended up going with them since they were able to come in on the weekend and get the work done quickly. There was one hiccup in the removal process, during a walk through afterward I noticed that they had missed a 6' by 4" piece of flooring. I called Tony and he sent the crew back to take care of it, so it turned out fine but I'm not sure how they missed this. Overall I was happy with the work they did, but given more time in the future I might go with a company that came in with a lower bid.

It was pretty positive. They had it removed about a half-day ahead of schedule. Some of the tape removed part of the paint on the wall. They did tell us ahead of time that it could be a possibility.

There were no surprises, the removal lasted just two days and went fine. Due to reasons I can't remember they have to use duct tape to adhere the plastic tarp to the walls and this can really ruin your walls; rips paint and wallpaper. They told us about this beforehand so we were prepared. If we weren't already repainting the interior I would've waited until we were otherwise it is a lot of work to remove all the furniture, be out of the house for two days and repair the walls where the duct tape was. When we came home the last night they were cleaning the floors with a very fine cloth and it was almost impossible to tell they'd just completed a very dirty, dusty job. Clean up was perfect. The ceilings have some minor dings but again they told us this would happen, plus it is impossible to know whether the ceilings were like that since one reason popcorn was used was to cover crummy mud and tape jobs.
