If you or a loved one were diagnosed with mesothelioma or another asbestos-related disease, the source of exposure may trace back to one of many West Virginia asbestos sites. These job locations—spread across steel mills, power stations, chemical plants, and even schools—were filled with asbestos-containing materials that endangered workers, contractors, and their families.
Where Were West Virginia Asbestos Sites Located?
Asbestos was used widely in heavy industry throughout the 20th century. In West Virginia, key hotspots for exposure include:
- Power Plants: Kammer, Mitchell, Mt. Storm and John Amos
- Steel Mills:
- Chemical Plants: Union Carbide in S. Charleston and Dupont in Washington
- Natural Gas and Utility Sites – Including pipeline compressor stations across Gilmer and Harrison Counties
- Public Works and Schools – Many public buildings built before the 1980s still contain asbestos insulation, tiles, or pipe wrap
These sites exposed boilermakers, millwrights, pipefitters, insulators, electricians, and other trades to airborne asbestos. For many, the danger followed them home.

Take-Home Asbestos from West Virginia Jobsites
West Virginia asbestos sites didn’t only affect workers on the clock. Many family members—often women and children—were exposed through take-home asbestos. Dust clung to work clothes, boots, and lunch containers, leading to devastating secondary exposure decades later.
If your spouse or parent worked in a mill, plant, or construction job, you may qualify for a legal claim even if you never stepped foot in the facility.
