Asbestos Testing – Commercial & Residential

Our asbestos testing services are designed to create safe, healthy environments by identifying potential asbestos hazards in both commercial and residential buildings. Our team delivers precise results, offering insights and actionable steps to protect occupants from asbestos exposure and maintain a healthier space.

Why is Asbestos Testing Essential?

Asbestos was once common in construction materials but is now recognized as a serious health risk if disturbed, releasing fibers that can be inhaled. Prolonged exposure can lead to lung tissue scarring, asbestosis, mesothelioma, and even lung cancer. Our comprehensive testing services help locate asbestos-containing materials, evaluate the risk of exposure, and provide the guidance needed to safeguard everyone in the building.

What Makes Asbestos Dangerous?

Asbestos consists of microscopic fibers that, when disturbed, become airborne and easily inhaled. It was commonly used for insulation and fire resistance in homes and commercial spaces between the 1950s and 1990s. Today, it’s essential to conduct professional asbestos testing to identify and mitigate these risks, especially in buildings of this age. Vancouver Asbestos Removal provides certified asbestos testing and abatement services to secure your building, protecting both property and people.

Our Thorough Asbestos Testing Process

Asbestos can be present in various areas, including kitchens, bathrooms, ceilings, and floors. A full inspection is required to locate and identify the specific types of asbestos that may be present. We test for all recognized asbestos minerals, such as:

• Chrysotile
• Amosite
• Crocidolite
• Tremolite
• Anthophyllite
• Actinolite

Each type poses different risks, and our testing process ensures comprehensive detection of all asbestos forms to accurately assess the need for removal or containment.
