Asbestos Removal
Test It.
Many homes built before 1990 may contain asbestos in materials such as old floor tiles, ceiling tiles, roof shingles, boiler insulation, duct wrap, drywall, ceiling textures, and insulation around pipes, fireplaces, and ducts. Other sources can include pipe cement, joint compound used on sheetrock seams, and vermiculite attic insulation. While asbestos was once a commonly used material, its health risks are now well-documented. Asbestos exposure can lead to serious health problems, making it essential to address potential issues as soon as they are identified.
It’s important to note that a visual inspection alone is not enough to determine if asbestos is present in your home. We strongly advise against attempting to handle suspected asbestos yourself, as improper removal can release harmful fibres into the air.
By calling us, you can ensure the safety of your home or business. Our professionally trained technicians will visit your property to collect samples from suspected asbestos-containing areas. These samples are sent to a certified, accredited laboratory for fibre analysis to confirm the presence of asbestos.
If asbestos is detected, our team will develop a safe and comprehensive removal plan tailored to your needs. We are committed to ensuring that your home is free from hazardous materials, providing peace of mind and a safe living environment for you and your family.

Never attempt to handle or remove asbestos on your own.
