why professional asbestos removal is critical
WHAT IS ASBESTOS
Asbestos is a hazardous material commonly found in older homes and buildings throughout Vancouver. It was widely used in construction for its durability and fire resistance, but it is now known to pose serious health risks when disturbed.
If asbestos-containing materials are damaged or exposed during renovations or demolition, microscopic fibers can become airborne and inhaled.
Common places asbestos is found:
- Popcorn ceilings
- Pipe insulation
- Vinyl flooring and tiles
- Drywall and joint compound
- Roofing materials
Health risks include:
- Lung disease
- Long-term respiratory issues
- Increased risk of serious illness with prolonged exposure
SIGNS YOU MAY HAVE ASBESTOS
If your property was built before the 1990s, there is a strong possibility asbestos may be present.
Watch for:
- Older insulation in attics or walls
- Crumbling or damaged ceiling textures
- Worn or cracked floor tiles
- Unknown building materials during renovation
