MDH lists joint compound and drywall tape mud among home products that can contain asbestos, along with plaster. When a lab confirms it in the walls or ceilings you plan to open, we remove those sections under containment. Your carpenter, electrician or plumber then works on clean framing.

Wall jobs in Eden Prairie, Shorewood and Chanhassen are part of our service area, from a single opening to a whole floor.

Wall work

Openings for wiring and plumbing

A new circuit, a moved drain or a panel upgrade can mean cutting into finished walls. We remove only the section the trade needs, with the edges kept wet and the debris bagged.

Rooms taken down to the studs

A full tear-out means every taped seam and patch comes out. The room stays sealed, with negative air running, until clearance samples pass.

Plaster walls

Older plaster is on MDH’s list as well, and it is sampled apart from any newer drywall patched into it.

Drywall ceilings

Ceilings have taped seams too, and any texture sprayed on top is sampled as a separate layer.

Test before the first cut

A positive result changes how a wall is opened, so the sample comes first. In a home, disturbing more than 6 square feet of friable asbestos material is work for an MDH-licensed contractor, and that holds for every trade in the house.

Remodelers and other trades

Above that amount, a remodeler, plumber or heating installer may not disturb the material in your home without an MDH asbestos license. We handle that part so their work stays on track.

Air checks at the end

We collect air samples while the containment is still up, and their lab report becomes part of the paperwork you keep for the job.
