FEATURED CDABP CONTRACTOR
|
|
|
Rudy Benavidez of Air Clean Environmental, Inc.
 Air Clean Environmental specializes in environmental remediation – from mold, lead and asbestos abatement to pest removal, bio-hazard and disaster clean-up.
Founder and owner, Rudy Benavidez began as an independent environmental inspector in the late 1980’s, when the demand for these services was on the rise. After working with one of the largest companies in the field, Rudy became one of two “haz-mat” coordinators for the City of Los Angeles, responsible for assessing a variety of locations where environmental safety might be a concern. “I gained a lot of experience running that department,” notes Rudy, “For example, if the City purchased properties, I would inspect them to determine any potential environmental risks before the City would send in any contractors to complete work on the properties. If environmental issues were found, I was in charge of hiring and overseeing the abatement contractors.” Read More...
