When comparing bids, compare these lists — a low number that excludes disposal or cleaning isn't a low number.
| Project | Calculation | Total |
|---|---|---|
| 300 sq ft kitchen floor (tile + mastic) | 300 × $9 + ~$550 clearance | ≈ $3,250 |
| 800 sq ft popcorn ceiling | 800 × $12 + ~$750 clearance | ≈ $10,350 |
| 1,000 sq ft vermiculite attic | 1,000 × $16 + ~$750 clearance | ≈ $16,750 |
These are illustrative — condition changes the number. Painted ceilings can add 25–60%. We'll show you exactly where your project lands before you sign anything.

Often yes for small, contained projects. Whole-home or HVAC-connected work may require temporary relocation. We'll tell you at the quote stage.
Containment, negative air, decon, cleaning, packaging and documentation cost nearly the same for 30 sq ft as for 300. The minimum covers doing the job safely.
Work pauses, new material is sampled, you get a documented change order with measured quantities before anything proceeds.
Final scope, disposal docs from the landfill, clearance results, photos, and a statement of what was removed vs. left in place.
