Vinyl floor tiles installed before 1980 are among the most common asbestos-containing materials found in Ann Arbor homes and buildings. The classic 9×9 inch tiles — and their black mastic adhesive — frequently tested positive for asbestos. At US Asbestos Contracting, our AHERA-certified technicians safely remove asbestos floor tiles from Ann Arbor properties using full EPA-compliant containment and certified disposal throughout Washtenaw County.
Why Ann Arbor Homes Have Asbestos Floor Tiles
Ann Arbor has approximately 62% of its housing stock built before 1980. Neighborhoods like Old West Side, Kerrytown, Burns Park, Glendale Hills, downtown Ann Arbor are especially likely to contain original asbestos floor tile in kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, and basements. Disturbing these tiles during renovation releases dangerous fibers — Michigan law requires professional abatement first.
