Asbestos 9×9 Floor Tile & Mastic Removal Services
Many older properties contain 9×9 floor tiles and adhesives, commonly known as mastic, which were manufactured with asbestos. While durable at the time of installation, these materials can become hazardous as they age or become damaged during renovation projects. At TruBlu Solutions, Inc., we specialize in the safe and effective removal of asbestos-containing floor tiles and mastic, ensuring your property remains secure for all occupants.
- 9×9 Asbestos Flooring: Refers to floor tiles that measure 9 inches by 9 inches and contain
asbestos. These tiles were commonly used in older buildings due to their durability and fire-resistant properties. - 12×12 Floor Tiles: Similar to 9×9 tiles, these larger tiles were also commonly manufactured with asbestos for their durability and fire-resistant properties.
- Sheet Vinyl Flooring: This type of flooring often contains asbestos in the backing material,
which can become hazardous if disturbed. - Vinyl Asbestos Tiles (VAT): These tiles were widely used in both residential and commercial
buildings and can release asbestos fibers if damaged or deteriorated. - Asbestos-Containing Adhesives (Mastic): The adhesives used to install floor tiles and sheet
flooring may also contain asbestos, posing a risk during removal or renovation.

Safely removing asbestos tiles allows for modern upgrades without compromising safety.
