Everything starts with testing. Before any abatement, samples of the suspect material, floor tiles, pipe insulation, popcorn ceilings, are sent to an accredited lab, and the survey decides what has to come out and how. Most jobs need notification to the state or local agency days before work begins, and a written plan. On site, we build containment: poly sheeting on walls and floors, sealed openings, and negative air machines with HEPA filters pulling air through the space so fibres can't escape to the rest of the building. The crew works in respirators and disposable suits, with a decontamination area to go through on the way out. Material is wetted to keep fibres down, removed carefully, and sealed in labelled bags for disposal at a licensed landfill with a waste manifest. After removal, the area is cleaned and air-tested before the containment comes down, and the client gets the clearance report. Licensing, medical monitoring and training for every worker are ongoing costs, and the paperwork is as important as the removal.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build an asbestos removal's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for an asbestos removal — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
