Asbestos Abatement at Sacred Heart Church
In the heart of Waltham, MA, the historic Sacred Heart Church has been an enduring symbol of community worship since its establishment in 1922. After its construction in 1958, the church is undergoing a significant restoration project to preserve its architectural beauty and ensure safety for future generations. As a part of this considerable undertaking, Banner Environmental Services was entrusted with performing meticulous asbestos abatement, specifically removing and disposing of asbestos-containing window caulking.
Scope and Safety Measures: Specialized Asbestos Removal Techniques
The project focused on removing and disposing of approximately 2600 linear feet of asbestos-containing window caulking, a task requiring extreme caution and precision. Utilizing hand tools and specialized equipment, our team worked diligently to preserve the interior stained glass windows while carefully removing the exterior window caulking. The asbestos abatement process ensured minimal damage and maximum safety, adhering to federal and state regulations.
