Hired Jackson abatement to remove popcorn ceiling in three rooms. They missed some popcorn ceiling…read moreasbestos under one light fixture during their abatement. They removed the light fixtures in the two other rooms, but somehow failed to remove the light fixture in the third. We thought that by the fixture still being up, that they had ensured there was no popcorn ceiling underneath it. We were wrong. A few days later, the ceiling refinisher discovered it when it was time to reskim the ceilings and he removed the fixture. The drywaller unfortunately dry scraped it off before I could stop him. I am extremely unhappy as we hired Jackson Abatement to handle the removal professionally so there was no risk to my family or young son of asbestos exposure. In hindsight, they failed and my family and son was still exposed to the asbestos that we were trying so hard to avoid. Rich did try to make it right eventually, but only with me pushing for resolution. A day or two after discovery, he provided a negative air machine and removed any remaining popcorn ceiling that was in the junction box. He also paid for air clearance testing which passed after three days of running the negative air machine. Both of these were because I requested/ pushed for it, they were not readily offered. Bothers me knowing that I paid multiple grand to have the asbestos in my home professionally removed so that there was no risk to my family. Due to their negligence, we were still exposed. Nothing I can do now, and I know nothing will likely come of it health wise, but I hate knowing my 7 month old son was exposed because of a failure on this company. Hoping they learned and do better for other families and customers.

I got the testing done, it came back positive for asbestos. I panicked. I called Pacific Environmental for an estimate on the job. Armando and Arturo came out to assess the job and provide with me with a quote. To my surprise, the price was only slightly higher than the regular remediation company. I was pleasantly surprised by the affordability. Additionally, they promised me the job would be completed in 1 day! WOW! This would be best case scenario. The office staff was also very kind and helpful with prompt estimate and response time. Today was the day of the job, I was very anxious and worried due to the fact that my parent's house is very old. The job supervisor, two workers and Arturo came out to ensure that everything would be okay! They did a superior job, kept everything clean, taped off all areas and did a great job with containment! I am so grateful to the PEAS team, now I can breathe easy and I am so relieved! I highly recommend this company for any abatement project. Great price, great customer service and great quality work! They listened to everything I asked for and delivered above and beyond! Thank you to the entire PEAS team!

As a contractor, I talk to a lot of companies, and it's rare to find someone who combines real…read moreexpertise with total honesty and a genuinely helpful attitude. Dino at Pacific Environment Abatement is exactly that. We're looking at buying a home in Seal Beach (Orange County) with popcorn ceilings, and I wanted to understand the reality of asbestos testing and what the asbestos abatement process would look like if it came back positive. I called Dino expecting a quick, generic pitch. Instead, he took the time to walk me through each step like a professional consultant--what the risks are, what's worth worrying about (and what isn't), the tradeoffs between different approaches, and how to think about the situation before making a decision. What really stood out was how transparent he was. No upsell, no scare tactics, no "you must do this immediately" pressure. Just clear explanations, practical guidance, and the kind of honesty you only get from someone who actually knows the work and genuinely cares about doing right by the customer. His pricing also sounded very fair and reasonable. With just one phone call, Dino saved me time and gave me a great understanding of the abatement process. If we end up needing asbestos testing or asbestos abatement, Dino and Pacific Environment Abatement will be the first and only call. Also worth mentioning: his office staff was incredibly kind and helpful too.

No one ever wants to be told that you have asbestos in your home. It's like being told you have…read morepoison or toxins that you have been living with...and now the state is eyeing your home with their arms crossed, tapping their toes to see what you are going to do. So, what if you could turn to someone trustworthy that would take care of it all and make it OK. What if you could find someone that knew the process, would take care of SCAQMD, remediate the asbestos totally, and leave your home asbestos-free. Well that is exactly the Hazmat Team. From the moment Erik came to provide an estimate, his honesty and professionalism put me at ease. But just to be sure, I got 5 other estimates. While, theirs wasn't the cheapest, this is not a point you necessarily want done cheaply. Nor was it the most expensive...but it was the most thorough of the 6 I received. The the gentlemen that came to perform the abatement, Porfirio and Diego, were wonderful, quick, efficient and thorough in their work. I could not have asked for better people if I had to go out and choose them myself. Erik returned afterwards to inspect and ensure I was satisfied with their work. So, all in all, I am so glad that I chose to go with Hazmat Team. You will not find more honest, trustworthy, and thorough people. You will not be disappointed. Guaranteed!

Our experience involved serious frustration related to project management, communication, missed…read morecommitments, billing disputes, and concerns regarding the quality of completed work. What should have been a professional remediation process became an extended and stressful ordeal. Consumers should carefully review the contract before signing. In our experience, the agreement included a provision stating the customer could be responsible for the company's legal fees in the event of a dispute. We strongly encourage anyone considering this company to have the contract independently reviewed and to fully understand all terms. We also experienced aggressive collection tactics during ongoing negotiations, including the filing of a lien against our property. Homeowners should understand the potential consequences of contract disputes before proceeding. We recommend getting multiple bids, keeping all communications in writing, obtaining independent third-party inspections, and reviewing all invoices carefully. If others have had similar unprofessional experiences with this company, we welcome them to contact us privately.

I would not use this company again…read more Our situation began as a water mitigation claim, which is already stressful for a homeowner, but the process quickly became disorganized. Communication was inconsistent, timelines changed, and we were told at various points that they were waiting on insurance coordination before work would proceed. The company ultimately chose not to complete the remediation, removed their equipment, and then billed for more days than the equipment was actually on site. When I attempted to ask questions and clarify the discrepancies, the interactions were not handled professionally. The verbal communication I experienced felt confrontational and dismissive rather than solution-oriented, which made an already difficult situation much worse. Everything was handled so unprofessionally. Because I needed to move forward with repairs and focus on my family, I paid the invoice to prevent further escalation while still disputing the charges. Homeowners going through a loss need clear information, accurate billing, and respectful communication. Unfortunately, that was not our experience.
