Quality Environmental is Southern California’s go-to choice for commercial property abatement, restoration, and demolition for a reason. Our exterior containments in Los Angeles and beyond are designed to keep your property and people safe with code-compliant systems.

Keep Your Project and the Public Protected

In commercial abatement, restoration, and demolition, what happens outside the work zone matters just as much as what goes on inside those four walls. Our exterior containments are custom-built to suit your project, whether you’re working on a small community church or a large-scale industrial building. We use proven systems and structures to ensure all hazardous materials, debris, and contaminants stay confined from start to finish.

What Are Exterior Containments?

Exterior containments are temporary protective structures built around active abatement, remediation, or demolition zones. These systems control environmental exposure to hazardous materials, helping your project maintain compliance and safeguard public health in your community. Our team of licensed, trained abatement technicians uses cutting-edge materials and techniques to seal off exterior work zones and create a secure environment. Containment systems can be used for the following materials:

What to Expect From Our Exterior Containments in Southern California

Comprehensive Containment

Our process begins with a thorough property assessment, during which we evaluate the project’s scope, environmental risks, and local code requirements. Then, we’ll develop a customized containment plan tailored to your building, ensuring maximum protection and efficiency. Once the system has been installed, we’ll be on standby 24/7 to respond quickly to any leaks, system damage, or hazardous material discoveries.

Full Enclosures and Building Wraps

For large-scale projects, we rely on full enclosures and building wraps to secure your property. In a full enclosure, we install custom scaffolding, poly sheeting, and engineered framing systems to create secure, weather-resistant barriers with controlled access points across your work site. Building wraps are best suited for urban and high-traffic areas, helping us minimize the spread of harmful particulates with 360° protection.

Ventilation and HEPA Air Filtration

We use state-of-the-art technology, including negative air pressure zones and integrated HEPA filtration systems, to maintain clean air within and around the work zone. This prevents contaminants from spreading and ensures regulatory compliance, giving you peace of mind as our technicians come and go. Every project includes continuous inspection and air quality monitoring to prevent unsafe conditions.

Weatherproofing and Structural Integrity

Our exterior containments are engineered to withstand high winds, rainfall, and temperature fluctuations, making them ideal for work during severe weather conditions. Each system leverages durable, proven materials to endure the elements without compromising structural integrity.

“Best in the trade, they stick to their name.”
