Meet Anthony – Founder & Lead Abatement Specialist

With over 30 years in the construction and environmental remediation industries, Anthony founded So Cal Abatement with one clear mission: to provide safe, honest, and effective abatement services to homeowners and businesses across San Diego.

Anthony’s path began in custom construction, where he saw firsthand how often hazardous materials like asbestos, lead, and mold were discovered during routine renovations. Frustrated by the lack of trustworthy, knowledgeable abatement professionals in the region, he decided to build a company that clients could truly count on—one that values integrity, transparency, and safety above all else.

As a state-licensed contractor and certified abatement professional, Anthony brings deep technical knowledge and a calm, solutions-focused approach to every job. Whether he’s overseeing a large-scale commercial project or helping a homeowner navigate a stressful discovery, he leads with professionalism, empathy, and precision.

Under Anthony’s leadership, So Cal Abatement has become a trusted name throughout San Diego County. His commitment to doing things the right way—the safe way—has built long-term client relationships and a reputation for excellence that spans decades.
