What this listing says
Denver Front Range property owners who need mold, asbestos, or water damage handled under one contract by a veteran-owned firm with CDPHE abatement credentials and 24/7 dispatch.
Best for
- Denver metro and Front Range homeowners who discover asbestos during a renovation or water loss and need one contractor to handle both the abatement and the restoration without bringing in a second vendor.
- Property owners who want a veteran-owned firm with federal contracting credentials (DUNS, CAGE code) and state abatement licensing for regulated environmental work.
- Commercial property managers and insurance adjusters who need documented, insurance-ready remediation with daily progress logs and a final project packet.
- Buyers comparing abatement bids — multiple reviewers report Atlas pricing at half to one-third of competitors for comparable asbestos removal scope.
About this company
Atlas Contracting & Environmental Solutions is a Service Disabled Veteran Owned restoration and environmental remediation company based in Sheridan, Colorado, just south of Denver. Their primary identity is as a single-source hazardous materials contractor — they handle asbestos abatement, lead paint removal, meth lab decontamination, mold remediation, water damage restoration, fire and smoke damage, and selective demolition all under one roof. They serve both residential and commercial properties across Colorado's Front Range.
What stands out is the breadth of regulated work they take on. They hold a Colorado CDPHE General Abatement Contractor license (GAC No. 26365), EPA Lead-Safe certification, and IICRC firm certification. They carry a DUNS number and CAGE code, which means they can take federal and municipal contracts — unusual for a company this size. Their website describes a process using negative air containment, HEPA filtration, antimicrobial treatments, and dehumidification with daily moisture monitoring and thermal imaging. They claim to keep enough extraction units, air movers, and dehumidifiers in inventory to run multiple jobs simultaneously without pulling equipment from active projects.
The company claims 20-plus years of regulated-market experience and is run by Steve McGuire, whose name and email appear throughout the site and in the majority of reviews. Case studies on the website show recent commercial work including a total-loss fire at a Colorado Springs property for State Farm, a water loss mitigation at a leasing office in Aurora, and pre-renovation asbestos abatement for US Bank branches in Denver, Golden, and Longmont. They offer a standing 10% discount for military, veterans, and first responders.
Atlas holds a 4.9-star rating on Google with 36 reviews and zero negatives in the last 18 months. That is a strong score, though the review count is still modest. Nearly every written review mentions Steve by name and highlights competitive pricing — multiple reviewers report Atlas came in at half or a third of competitors' bids for asbestos abatement work.
Services
Service area
Headquartered at 2835 W Oxford Ave in Sheridan, Colorado, just south of Denver. Core service area covers the Denver metro including Denver, Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Englewood, Arvada, and Parker. They also list coverage extending to Boulder, Colorado Springs, Fort Collins, Castle Rock, Highlands Ranch, and over 40 additional Front Range communities. The Colorado Springs corridor is served by dispatched crews rather than a local office, so response times there may differ from the core Denver metro area.
Review consensus
Steve McGuire is named in at least a dozen reviews and consistently praised for responsive communication, straightforward assessments, and pricing that undercuts competitors significantly. Maria Nguyen said his pricing was a third of what Puroclean quoted and noted he obtained an emergency permit to start abatement faster. Ashley Davis reported saving more than double compared to other bids. Dalton Weintraub got six quotes and chose Atlas for being competitively priced. Theresa Haskin named Rob for responding immediately to a roof leak, creating a plan the same day, and setting up containment equipment to protect her family including a toddler and newborn. Georgina Cordero praised both Steve and Cassandra for handling her situation. Addi Pasfield highlighted Steve and Jennifer for being non-alarmist about asbestos, which she called rare. Elyse Soisson and Ignacio Lopez both praised Antonio for his work quality and communication. Reviewers consistently mention fast scheduling, clean work sites after completion, and clear communication throughout the project.
0 found across 36 total reviews at 4.9★. No negative reviews found in the last 18 months. With 36 total reviews at a 4.9 rating, there are zero 1-star, 2-star, or 3-star reviews in the recent window.
The review profile is overwhelmingly positive but skews heavily toward asbestos abatement jobs. The vast majority of reviewers describe hiring Atlas for asbestos removal in pre-1980 homes — floor tile, drywall, ceiling material. Water damage and mold remediation get much less review coverage despite being prominently featured on the website. This suggests asbestos abatement may be the company's primary volume driver, with restoration services growing more recently. Several reviewers specifically contrast Atlas against competitors who quoted much higher or tried to upsell unnecessary work — Doug called it "an honest place" in an industry full of disreputable companies, and Maria Nguyen said a competitor was trying to push unnecessary abatement.
Steve McGuire (owner/point of contact — praised repeatedly for communication, fair pricing, and responsiveness). Rob (field team — praised for same-day assessment and family safety planning on a roof leak job). Cassandra (team member — praised alongside Steve for handling a remediation project). Jennifer (guidance role — praised for non-alarmist asbestos assessment). Antonio (field work — praised for work quality and communication across multiple reviews).
Ask for Steve when you call — he is clearly the primary point of contact and the person reviewers credit for the quoting and communication experience. Get multiple asbestos bids if that is your project, because reviewers consistently report Atlas undercutting competitors, and comparing will confirm whether that holds for your scope. For mold work, get an independent test first since Atlas does both testing and remediation. The absence of any negative reviews means there is no data on how they handle problems — ask for references from jobs where something did not go as planned.
Keep in mind
- Atlas does both mold testing and mold remediation. The same company that identifies your mold problem profits from fixing it. Consider getting a separate mold assessment from an independent testing firm before agreeing to their remediation scope.
- With only 36 reviews, the sample is small. The 4.9 rating is strong but based on limited volume — there is not enough data to identify how the company handles projects that go wrong.
- Their website claims service across 40-plus Colorado cities, from Fort Collins to Colorado Springs. That is a very wide area from a single Sheridan office. If you are outside the core Denver metro, confirm crew availability and response time for your location before booking.
- Most reviews focus on asbestos abatement work. There is less review evidence for their mold remediation, water damage, or fire restoration capabilities specifically.
