Standard approaches to asbestos abatement may have to be modified depending on the conditions of the asbestos-containing materials. When a non-standard approach to asbestos removal must be implemented, these four principals are always followed:

  • The work area must be isolated.
  • All removal workers must be adequately protected.
  • The release of fibres must be minimized.
  • Workers must ensure comprehensive clean-up and decontamination of work area.

If these principals are followed, non-standard asbestos removal procedures can be carried out safely and effectively. The professional technicians at Certified Asbestos Removal have the skills and experience necessary to perform asbestos removal services even in the most unconventional circumstances. Here are just a few non-standard asbestos removal circumstance and how our professional experts can help.

Vinyl Floor Tiles

Because of their unusual placement, vinyl floor tiles containing asbestos materials require a non-standard removal approach. Luckily, the asbestos contained in most vinyl floor tiles is relatively minimal and present only small risk of fibres being released into the air if all proper procedures are followed. The professional team at Certified Asbestos Removal use specialized scrappers to safely remove asbestos-containing vinyl floor tiles without using the more abrasive power tools that could release harmful fibres into the air.
