When people hear the word “asbestos,” it can feel intimidating—and for good reason. Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACMs) must be handled carefully, even when they’re considered non-friable. The key is experience, preparation, and strict control throughout the entire process. At EAS Environmental, we provide asbestos abatement services throughout both South Carolina and Georgia. We use the information we are given by the Client to come up with a stellar Scope of Work including engineering controls, removal/abatement protocols, and disposal methods. Our goal is to help you understand how professional abatement is planned, executed, and verified, so that you can make the right decision when deciding who to hire as an abatement contractor. Abstract: EAS Environmental completed a Class II, non-friable Category II asbestos abatement project at a commercial facility in Savannah, GA, involving the controlled removal of asbestos-containing Transite wall panels. In this case study, we will outline the process of how our team prepared the regulated area, used engineering controls like containment barriers and HEPA filtration, the methods we used in order to remove panels while intact, packaged waste correctly for disposal, and followed documentation and inspection procedures to ensure a safe, compliant close-out. This article emphasizes the importance of the amount of care that these types of abatement projects require.

In today’s world, we believe that true success comes from more than just business growth — it’s about giving back and making a real difference where we live and work. At EAS Environmental LLC, we’re proud to be a full-service disaster restoration and environmental remediation company based in the Charleston, South Carolina region. While our work focuses on restoration, abatement, and remediation, our mission goes far beyond that. Every project we take on is driven by a deeper purpose: to help build safer, healthier environments for our neighbors, especially those most vulnerable to environmental risks. Below we’ll explore how EAS Environmental is making a difference — and then identify five key pillars of corporate responsibility in action.

Restoration work can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re staring down the aftermath of a flood, fire, or hazardous material exposure. At EAS Environmental, we believe that transparency and trust are key. That’s why we’re pulling back the curtain on what a real restoration project looks like when you work with our team—from the first call to the final walkthrough. Our goal is to help you understand every step of the process, so you know exactly what’s happening and why. With decades of experience and a commitment to safety, we make sure your property is restored the right way—the first time. By the end, you’ll not only have a clean, safe space again but also the peace of mind that comes from knowing it was done properly. Abstract: A grease fire broke out in the kitchen of a Florence apartment, spreading smoke and soot to the walls, ceilings, and floors throughout the second-story residence. Just your typical fire mitigation job, right? Wrong; after some third-party sampling and laboratory analysis, Asbestos-Containing Materials (ACMs) were identified in the apartment. In this case study, we walk through how our company, EAS Environmental, handled the turn-key process of the asbestos abatement, and then rebuilding the property to its pre-loss condition. From navigating complex environmental regulations to coordinating restoration timelines, this project showcased the importance of expertise, communication, and precision in every phase. This article highlights how our team transformed an unexpected challenge into a seamless, compliant, and fully restored living space. The Situation: Fire Damages Disturb Asbestos Containing Materials The tenant accidentally started a grease fire in the kitchen of their second-story Florence apartment. The good news: no one was seriously injured. The bad news: the fire left behind significant damage – smoke and soot coating every surface in every room. Fire mitigation projects happen every day, but not all of them come with an unexpected condition lurking beneath the layers of soot and smoke.
