Pennsylvania Rules 🡢 Same Accountability.
CRE rebuilds select commercial, institutional and government properties in Pennsylvania after fire, water, mold and demolition, and performs the asbestos, lead, hazardous-material and mold work that comes first. Pennsylvania certifies asbestos contractors and individuals through the Department of Labor & Industry, and we work to its program.
Disturbed material at a Pennsylvania facility? Isolate the area and call us — 24/7.
In Pennsylvania, building permits come from the municipal code official, and asbestos work that precedes a rebuild requires L&I-certified contractors and individuals and advance DEP notification. CRE takes select commercial, institutional and government reconstruction projects, primarily in eastern Pennsylvania.
Pennsylvania’s process differs from New York’s, so we map the Pennsylvania pathway first and schedule backward from your reopening date.
In Pennsylvania, the Department of Labor & Industry certifies asbestos contractors and individuals, including workers, supervisors, project designers, building inspectors and management planners. Anyone entering containment must hold current certification. The Department of Environmental Protection handles abatement notification, generally at least five days before work begins, through its GreenPort system; L&I can waive that period in an emergency.
