Torrance Explosion

For 15 hours after being tented for fumigation, natural gas slowly leaked into a Torrance home. The resulting explosion – the equivalent of 200 to 400 sticks of dynamite – sent shock waves through two cities, causing damage to at least 115 homes, blowing out windows and injuring 10 people. Following the April, 2003 explosion and fire, the surrounding areas were tested for airborne and physical asbestos that may have been released. Alliance was called to the site after identifying asbestos in duct insulation and roofing materials. The successful cleanup and removal of all asbestos-affected debris was completed within two working days.

"I am very pleased with the service performed by Alliance because your employees were on time, very careful and saved my countertops by removing the faces of the cabinets. You also took very good care of removing and setting aside my double ovens and stove top.

You were on time and your work done right away. Thank you."
