Asbestos Abatement - Removal

STAY SAFE WITH EXPERT ASBESTOS REMOVAL IN OTTAWA
Today, asbestos removal is considered essential before demolition or renovation projects. Before you begin your task, consult Aucoin's Insulation for asbestos removal in Ottawa.

Asbestos was once a common building material. But over time, as asbestos fibres crumbled, they turned into fine, inhalable particles. These particles posed significant health risks for those who lived and worked nearby. Some vermiculite insulation may also contain asbestos.

ASBESTOS AWARENESS

If you work in construction or a similar industry, you may encounter asbestos occasionally. Before you call for asbestos removal from your Ottawa property,learn more about where it can be found:

Roofing shingles
Siding
Soundproofing tiles
Walls and ceilings
Attic insulation
Hot water piping or boilers
Furnace ducts
Furnace rooms and door gaskets
Before completing tasks around any of these areas, call us for inspection and/or abatement.

THE ABATEMENT PROCESS

If you suspect the presence of asbestos in your building, contact Aucoin's Insulation, a licensed abatement provider. We perform a full inspection of your property and ensure your safety as well as that of our crew. Our procedure includes:

Area enclosure
Encapsulation
Complete removal
We also refer to these options as Type I, II, or III removal. The abatement we choose depends on how much asbestos we find on site, friable or non-friable, as well as the complexity of the job.

Once we seal the area to protect the public, we remove asbestos waste via doubled poly bags and take all bags off site for approved disposal. We ensure that your property is completely cleared of asbestos before we finish any job.

REPLACEMENT INSULATION

Many buildings once used asbestos-based insulation, mostly because of asbestos’ flame-retardant properties. So, after we remove asbestos-based insulation from your site, Aucoin's Insulation will help you choose appropriate replacement insulation.

We offer a variety of certified flame-retardant products, including polyurethane-based insulation. This product is UFFI-free and safe to use.asbestos removal
