Asbestos: What It Is and Why Removal is Necessary

Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was in wide use until it was proven that exposure to the fibres causes serious lung conditions, including mesothelioma and asbestosis. It had wide application in the construction of many buildings due to its durability, resistance to heat, and ability to fireproof materials. This makes proper removal critical to the health of everyone who comes in contact with the material.

Common locations in Edmonton that could contain asbestos include:

Attic Insulation: Asbestos can be found in insulation within attics of old homes.
Ceilings & Drywall: It was in both plaster and drywall products until the 1990s.
Tiles & Flooring: Lots of houses and buildings here in Edmonton have or had asbestos in the flooring.
Pipes & Ducts: Asbestos had been widely used for insulation for pipes and ducts.

If you live or work in a property that was built before the 1990s, you should look into getting it inspected to determine if asbestos is present. Long-term health consequences are a serious reality if asbestos is present and is ignored.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Kind Of Health Problems Does Asbestos Cause?

Asbestos is a dangerous material that can cause serious health problems if it is not handled or removed properly. Asbestos is a mineral that was once commonly used in many industrial and commercial applications because of its fire-resistant and insulating properties. However, it has since been found that asbestos can cause serious health problems if it is disturbed and the fibers become airborne. Health problems associated with asbestos exposure include asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.

How To Minimize The Asbestos Risks In The Home?

If you do not know if products in your home contain asbestos, have an experienced contractor inspect them. If asbestos is present, it is important to call a certified professional for asbestos removal services in Toronto and the GTA before disturbing, repairing, or removing the material.

When Can Asbestos Be A Problem In The Home?

Asbestos becomes a problem when damaged, aging, or disturbed materials release fibres into the air. Asbestos can cause a variety of health problems, so it's important to know when asbestos can be a problem in the home. The first thing to know is that asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was once used in a lot of construction materials. It was prized for its durability and resistance to fire, but we now know that it can be very harmful to our health. Asbestos fibers can become airborne and be inhaled, and over time this can cause serious health problems like cancer. So how do you know if you have asbestos in your home?

What Health Problems Are Associated With Being Exposed To Asbestos?

Asbestos poses health risks only when fibres are in the air that people breathe. Once inhaled, asbestos fibres can lodge in the lungs and surrounding tissue, causing scarring that can ultimately lead to severely impaired lung function (asbestosis) and cancers of the lungs or lung cavity.

What Is Asbestos?

Asbestos is a natural mineral with unusual qualities. It is strong enough to resist high temperatures, chemical attack and wear. A poor conductor, it insulates well against heat and electricity. Asbestos crystals become long, flexible, silky fibres, so it can be made into a wide variety of forms.

Great company! I was in a rush as I had an offer on my house and the home inspector found asbestos around the register vents. I called Canada's Restoration Services and spoke to a lovely lady, Laura on the phone who was able to have a gentleman come out next morning to inspect. Aris arrived on time and provided me with an estimate on the spot.

The teams were able to come next day to remove the asbestos and all was great!

Thank you so much Canada's Restoration Services :)

Review of Project at St. Mark's Church (Dorval)

Our Church recently made a decision to replace the tile floor in our basement (approximately 3,600 sq. ft.). At the suggestion of one of our parishioners, we had the existing tiles tested for asbestos. The tiles had a significant amount of asbestos. We were originally going to remove the old tiles ourselves which would have been a huge mistake. We contacted several companies which specialize in the removal of asbestos tiles and signed a contract with Canada Restoration Services.

They gave us a very competitive price and followed up with outstanding service. The job was completed within the time frame requested. Their preparation was very thorough and well organized. All entrances were sealed effectively. Safety was at all times given top priority. The tiles were removed and the surface sealed so that the tile company was able to immediately apply their glaze coating prior to installing the tiles. They vacuumed the entire area so that it was cleaner than it has been for years.

I am happy to strongly recommend Canada Restoration Services to anyone who needs to remove asbestos tiles. Many thanks to Roberto Lamas and the crew.

Yours truly,

Trevor Smith

HUGE Thank You to Canada's Restoration Services. A very nice man Alex came out to my home as we had noticed some suspicious material wrapped around our old boiler pipes. After doing research, I found that it could contain asbestos.

Alex came out and said that it did indeed look to be asbestos and gave me a quote same day on the removal. I approved and Alex scheduled in his teams to come next day and remove. My house was left spotless and asbestos free!

Thank you so much to Alex and your teams!

Simone

I hired Canada’s Restoration for Asbestos removal in my basement. I got a couple quotes but the level of service and professionalism stood out with Roberto. He scheduled the work around my schedule and the two technicians, Julio and Henry, who performed the work, were just as wonderful as he was.

Highly Recommend for Asbestos Removal in Montreal!

Jack

I highly recommend Canada’s Restoration Services. Quick response, very professional and knowledgeable, and the work performed was immaculate. The technicians took such care of my home and possessions.

No doubt, I would use them in the future if needed.

Sara

It came as quite a shock when we learned that our house had asbestos wrapped around the duct work system and vents. We put the house up for sale and the Home Inspector found it. I quickly researched companies and came across Canada's Restoration.

Given their great reviews, I gave them a call. A very nice gentleman, Roberto came by, and gave me an estimate for the removal. I brought in another company, but the service was not there.

Seeing as how I had an offer on the table we had to move quickly. Roberto scheduled in, got the job done, and the sale went through!

Great work Canada's Restoration! I know who to call if I ever need anything again :)

A.L

I had 3 remedial companies come look at an asbestos issue which I had with my heat registers. 2 others, which I wont name, frustrated me by trying to procur further work claiming there was more to be found in the ceiling when I knew full well there was very little chance of that existed.

They came with outrageous quotes and completely confused me. Alex from Canada's Restoration Services came to assess the issue and made it simple and clear. There was no messing around and the quote and scope of work was straight forward.

I felt much more comfortable knowing that these guy came to do a good job and not try to scam more $$ out of me. Overall very pleased and wouldnt hesitate recommending or referring them.

Thanks again guys

Alan

I had recently purchased a home and wanted to do some renovations in the basement. With the home being built in the 40's I was leary about it containing asbestos. I called Canada's Restoration and they told me I would have to have the area tested first.

They recommended a company who came in the next day and took samples of the drywall. As I suspected it came back as positive, but Jake from Canada's Restoration made me feel right at ease. He explained the process and assured me that with the proper containments and removal all would be fine.

The work was completed the next week, and as he assured me, the test results after came back clean!

Thank you Jake for your great work! You made our situation much easier to deal with!

Allison A.

George and his crew are amazing, I cannot thank them enough. They've surpassed my expectations and everyone needs to know that if there's still good people out there then it's these guys... they are professional, fast, super clean and very comfortable and clean people to have in your house specially if you have kids around.
