When Regulated Materials Assessment is Required
A Regulated Building Materials Survey (RBMS) is typically required before any renovation, demolition, or property transaction. Federal and state regulations mandate identifying and documenting hazardous materials—like asbestos, lead, and PCBs—before work begins.
Conducting an RBMS early in the process helps avoid costly project delays, protect workers, and ensure full regulatory compliance. Whether you’re preparing for redevelopment, modernization, or decommissioning, our team delivers clear insights so you can move forward safely.
Frequently Asked Questions About Regulated Building Materials
Q: What Are Regulated Building Materials?
A: Regulated building materials—like items containing asbestos, lead, mercury, and PCBs—pose serious safety and compliance risks if not handled properly. Identifying and managing them early protects your team, avoids costly delays, and keeps every project compliant and on track.
Safeguard your people and your reputation with proactive regulated building materials management and consulting from G2.
Q: Which regulatory standards do you follow during testing and remediation?
A: We adhere to all applicable EPA, OSHA, and state environmental regulations, including the Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act (AHERA), TSCA, and RCRA requirements. Our assessments and remediation partners follow strict protocols to ensure your project meets or exceeds all compliance standards.
Q: What types of industries do you serve?
A: We work across a wide range of sectors, including commercial real estate, industrial facilities, manufacturing, education, healthcare, and government. Whether you manage a single property or an extensive portfolio, we tailor our services to your project’s scope and compliance needs.
Q: Are there indicators a building has regulated materials?
A: Yes. Commercial and industrial buildings often contain regulated materials such as asbestos, lead-based paint, mercury, or PCB-containing electrical components. Older construction eras, deteriorated components, discoloration, or outdated finishes may signal potential RBMs, but only sampling and laboratory analysis can confirm.
Q: Do we need to do a regulated materials assessment before we start a construction or remodeling project?
A: Absolutely. Regulations require identifying and managing RBMs before disturbing any building materials. Completing an assessment ensures worker safety, avoids compliance violations, and prevents unplanned project interruptions.
Q: Can we address any issues on our own and stay in compliance?
A: No—regulated materials must be handled and removed by licensed professionals. Attempting to manage or dispose of them without proper certification can result in serious health risks and regulatory penalties. Our team connects you with qualified experts to ensure everything is done safely and by the book.
