ABATEMENT

The practice of hazardous material abatement on historic window frames and sash is a critical process that has been mastered by Re-View. Since the restoration of wood and steel windows almost always requires removing lead-based paint and asbestos compounds to treat damaged sections of the windows system, it is essential that a turnkey restoration company like Re-View have abatement capabilities as part of their offering. The Re-View team treats ACM abatement not as a separate discipline, but as part of the restoration process. Our abatement technicians work closely with our carpenters in the field and in the shop to meet the schedules of our projects.

FAMILIARITY WITH REGULATIONS

The Re-View team has been doing lead based abatement for over ten years and is very familiar with all of the local, state, and federal regulations associated with handling and containing lead based paint and asbestos compounds. You don’t have to worry about hiring a novice and having your project shut down because of sloppy abatement practices.

MANPOWER

Our management and field people have a great deal of experience in the area of lead paint and asbestos abatement. Everyone goes through extensive ongoing CEU training and is certified in all aspects of LBP and ACM abatement.

EQUIPMENT
Re-View has all of the required equipment for shop or field containment of lead paint. We have a mobile clean room for our crews in the field. We also have all of the necessary tools like HEPA vacuums, respirators, needle scalers, dip tanks, secured containers, barriers, and a host of other materials required to handle hazardous materials. Re-View has also mastered the challenge of reclaiming hazardous material when we blast steel and bronze windows that have hazardous materials.

ASBESTOS ABATEMENT

The Re-View team is also licensed and trained in abating asbestos often found in glazing compound and perimeter sealants. Window installers must be licensed to demo hot glazing, repair glazing, or scrape hot caulking between the window and masonry to create a new caulk joint.
