Is Your Property at Risk?

If your building was constructed before the late 1980s, there is a high probability that it contains Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACM). During a renovation or demolition, disturbing these materials can release toxic fibers into the air.

We specialize in identifying and removing:

  • Asbestos Acoustic “Popcorn” Ceilings
  • Asbestos Vinyl Floor Tiles & Mastic Adhesives
  • Asbestos Pipe Insulation & HVAC Duct Wrap
  • Asbestos Drywall Joint Compound & Plaster
  • Asbestos Exterior Stucco & Roofing Materials

Total Compliance with SCAQMD Rule 1403

In Los Angeles, asbestos removal is strictly regulated by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD). WDR Contracting ensures your project stays 100% legal and avoids heavy fines.

  • Proper Notification: We handle the mandatory 10-day agency notifications.
  • Full Containment: We use HEPA-filtered air scrubbers and negative pressure zones to prevent cross-contamination.
  • Certified Disposal: All hazardous waste is double-bagged and transported to authorized California landfills with full manifests provided to you.
  • Clearance Testing: We work with independent third-party labs to verify your air quality is safe before the containment comes down.

Our Abatement Process

  1. Containment Setup: We seal the work area with 6-mil poly sheeting and establish a decontamination chamber.
  2. Wet-Method Removal: Our team uses specialized wet-removal techniques to keep fibers from becoming airborne.
  3. Final Air Clearance: Once removal is complete, an independent lab tests the air to ensure the space is 100% safe for re-entry.

Advanced Remediation: Procedure 5 Clean-Up

Under SCAQMD Rule 1403, a Procedure 5 (Clean-Up of Asbestos-Containing Material) is required whenever asbestos has been disturbed, is found in a degraded state, or when standard removal methods aren’t feasible.

At WDR Contracting, we specialize in these high-stakes clean-ups, ensuring that contaminated sites are restored to a safe, “clean air” status.

When is a Procedure 5 Necessary?

  • Accidental Disturbance: If an unlicensed contractor or DIY project accidentally breaks into asbestos-containing materials.
  • Post-Fire or Natural Disaster: When structural damage has exposed and spread asbestos fibers.
  • Delamination: When old acoustic “popcorn” ceilings or pipe insulation begin to crumble and fall on their own.
  • Illegal Dumping: If hazardous debris has been left on your property and needs professional, documented removal.

Our Procedure 5 Protocol

Because Procedure 5 requires a site-specific plan submitted to and approved by the South Coast AQMD, we follow a rigorous, documented workflow:

  1. Strict Isolation: We establish a “Critical Barrier” using double-reinforced 6-mil poly sheeting and advanced negative pressure systems.
  2. HEPA Vacuuming & Wet Wiping: We don’t just “clear” debris; we perform a microscopic cleaning of all surfaces—walls, floors, and rafters—using HEPA-filtered vacuums and specialized surfactants.
  3. Air Monitoring: We facilitate rigorous air clearance testing (PCM or TEM) conducted by a third-party laboratory to prove the area is 100% safe for occupancy.
  4. Agency Close-out: We provide the final manifest and clearance reports, ensuring your property is cleared of any regulatory red flags.

Expert Tip: If you have received a “Notice to Comply” or a “Notice of Violation” from a building inspector regarding asbestos, WDR Contracting can step in immediately to stabilize the site and manage the Procedure 5 filing.
