Start With an Asbestos Testing

Before we can begin asbestos removal, WorkSafeBC requires a certified Hazardous Material Inspection (HMI). This report identifies asbestos-containing materials that must be removed before any construction or demolition.

Our Asbestos Removal Process

Project Timeline & Paperwork
Step 1
Once your project is approved, we’ll create a clear schedule and submit a Notice of Project (NOP) to WorkSafeBC, as required, 48 hours before starting.
Custom Containments & Air Protection
Step 2
We install custom containment zones tailored to your site to prevent dust and airborne fibres from spreading. Equipment is sealed and used exclusively within these protected areas.
Certified Team On-Site
Step 3
Our asbestos removal team in Vancouver is composed of WCB-certified professionals with hands-on training. We strictly follow all asbestos removal in Vancouver protocols to ensure safety, compliance, and peace of mind.
Air Clearance Testing Included
Step 4
We conduct post-removal air clearance tests to confirm that the space is safe—this applies to all projects, even those where clearance isn't legally required. For high-risk abatements, we recommend third-party clearance testing for added assurance.
Optional Pre- and Post-Abatement Inspections
Step 5
Available upon request, our certified inspectors can conduct additional inspections before and after removal. Ideal for large, complex, or commercial sites.
Safe Disposal with Full Transparency
Step 6
We dispose of all asbestos-containing materials at WCB-approved facilities. Each project comes with a waste manifest, so you know exactly where and how materials were handled.

FAQs – Asbestos Removal & Abatement

1. What is asbestos abatement and how is it different from asbestos removal?

Asbestos abatement refers to the controlled process of reducing or eliminating asbestos exposure, which may include removal, encapsulation, or enclosure. Asbestos removal specifically means physically removing asbestos-containing materials from the property. A professional assessment determines the safest approach.

2. How do I know if my home or building contains asbestos?

Asbestos cannot be identified by sight alone. The only reliable way to confirm its presence is through professional asbestos testing and laboratory analysis, especially in homes or buildings constructed before 1990.

3. Is asbestos dangerous if it’s not disturbed?

No. Asbestos is most dangerous when disturbed, but aging, damage, renovations, moisture, or vibration can release fibres over time, so even undisturbed materials can become hazardous, which is why professional evaluation is strongly recommended.

4. Do I need asbestos abatement before renovations or demolition?

In most cases, yes. In British Columbia, regulations require asbestos testing and, if necessary, abatement before any renovation or demolition to protect occupants, workers, and comply with WorkSafeBC regulations.

5. How much does asbestos removal cost in British Columbia?

The cost depends on several factors, including type of asbestos, location, material condition, accessibility, and containment level required. Prices typically range from hundreds to thousands of dollars. A professional on-site assessment is needed for an accurate quote.

6. Can I remove asbestos myself?

DIY asbestos removal is strongly discouraged and is often illegal as improper handling can release airborne fibres, putting you and others at serious health risk. Professional asbestos abatement companies use certified technicians, specialized equipment, and strict safety protocols.

7. How long does asbestos abatement take?

The timeline varies based on the size of the affected area and the complexity of the project. Small residential jobs may take one day, while larger or high-risk projects can take several days, including clearance testing.

8. Is asbestos removal safe for occupants during the process?

Yes—when performed by certified professionals. The area is fully sealed and contained, using negative air pressure and HEPA filtration to prevent fibre spread. In some cases, temporary vacating of the property may be recommended.

9. What types of asbestos materials can be removed?

Common asbestos-containing materials include insulation, drywall joint compound, popcorn ceilings, vinyl flooring, pipe wrap, boiler insulation, and cement products. Each material requires a specific removal and containment method.

10. Is clearance testing required after asbestos abatement?

Yes. Air clearance testing is often required to confirm that asbestos fibre levels are safe before reoccupation. This ensures the abatement was successful and compliant with health and safety regulations.
