Asbestos Concerns Common in Lakewood Homes

Lakewood has approximately 92% of homes built before 1980. This makes asbestos a significant concern for homeowners, especially in established neighborhoods like Birdtown, Gold Coast, Clifton Park, Rocky River, Bay Village.

Lakewood's history in northeast Ohio also means many commercial buildings, schools, and older structures contain substantial asbestos materials requiring professional abatement.

Most Frequently Encountered Asbestos Materials in Lakewood:

• Popcorn ceilings (textured acoustic ceilings from 1950s-1980s)
• 9x9 inch vinyl floor tiles (especially in kitchens, bathrooms, and basements)
• Pipe insulation (white, chalky wrap on heating pipes - very common in Lakewood's older homes)
