Commercial Demolition Tips for North Blenheim, NY

What are commercial demolition requirements?

The Clean Air Act requires that the National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) regulations be followed during the demolition or renovation of a commercial building.

These regulations include:

  • The building owner/operator must notify the necessary state department(s) before any building that could possibly contain asbestos is demolished.
  • Particular operations are prohibited from releasing visible emissions into the air.
  • Proper air cleaning and hazardous waste removal procedures must be followed.

Under the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act, any contractor, worker, inspector, or otherwise that works with asbestos-containing building materials in a commercial building must be accredited by a training program, like the EPA Model Accreditation Plan (MAP).

Your state and local agencies may require more stringent standards than those required by the federal government, so be sure to determine your city and state's demolition and asbestos requirements.

How do I choose the right commercial demolition expert?

Due to the precision and skill required to accurately and safely execute commercial demolition, it is imperative that you hire an experienced contractor. They will be able to accurately calculate and control the dust and debris and ensure the commercial structure comes down quickly and precisely.

Hometown is the easiest way to find the right commercial demolition expert for your project.
