Asbestos Abatement

Asbestos Abatement by a Certified Specialist Company

Asbestos has been banned since 1993, with exceptions for demolition, remediation, and maintenance work (ASI). Buildings constructed before 1989 may still contain a range of hazardous substances such as asbestos, PCBs, and PAHs in the materials used at the time. Undetected contamination in a building can cause significant health risks and harm to people. If such hazardous substances are detected, professional asbestos abatement is required.

1. Review of building documents and on-site inspection to identify asbestos in all rooms of the building in question, and collection of samples.
2. Laboratory analysis of the samples.
3. Determination of precise health and legal standards (including cost estimate) for asbestos abatement and disposal.
