Asbestos is a hazardous material that was commonly used in construction materials before it was banned in the late 1970s. It was used because of its heat-resistant and insulating properties, but it was later discovered to cause serious health issues such as lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. As a result, asbestos removal is necessary for any building constructed before the late 1970s.
At Certified Asbestos, we offer professional asbestos removal and testing services to ensure the safety of your property and the people within it. Our team of experts are fully trained and equipped to handle all asbestos removal needs, including the identification, removal, and disposal of asbestos-containing materials. We use specialized equipment and procedures to ensure that all asbestos materials are removed safely and efficiently, with minimal disruption to your property.
WHAT IS ASBESTOS?
what
Asbestos is the common name given to a group of naturally occurring mineral silicates that can be separated into flexible fibres. The name asbestos comes from the Greek word meaning unquenchable or indestructible. The main properties that make asbestos useful are its incombustibility, strength and flexibility when separated into fibres. It is also effective as a reinforcing or binding agent when combined with cement or plastic. Asbestos can be found in materials such as:
- Building exteriors (e.g., cement siding panels, soffits, roof panels, mastics, stucco);
- Flooring (e.g., vinyl asbestos tiles, sheet vinyl flooring, and floor leveling compound);
- Ceilings (e.g., ceiling tiles, acoustic and stipple finishes, and plaster or drywall);
- Walls (e.g., plaster or drywall joint compound, stippled finishes, and cement panels); and
- Insulation (e.g., vermiculite, boilers, vessels, pipes, ducts, floors, ceilings and walls)
THE HAZARDS OF ASBESTOS
Asbestos is a hazardous building material that must be inhaled to cause disease. Intact and undisturbed asbestos presents no direct health hazard but does present a potential exposure hazard should fibres be released and inhaled. Asbestos-related diseases include asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma.
WHY TEST FOR ASBESTOS?
Once embedded in lung tissue, asbestos fibres may remain within the body for extended periods. It is important to test for the presence of asbestos before initiating any building repairs, improvements on structures or the demolition of buildings that were built prior to 1990.

I called several companies to inquire about hiring an asbestos company for testing and removal of asbestos in my office work place. I found Peter to be the most knowledgeable and trustworthy. I had great confidence in Peter and his crew, and they were able to deliver. The testing and removal work was successful. The best part was that their price was the most competitive in comparison to the others. I highly, highly recommend Certified Asbestos Removal to anyone in need of testing and removal.

I had a great experience dealing with Certified Asbestos Removal. Peter responded within 10 minutes to my request for a quote and sent a tech to site the next day for testing who was also a pleasure to work with. They put me at ease on the issues I had and also relayed a lot of info to cover some future questions.

James was amazing to deal with. We needed to do a renovation in our house and found out that we needed to first deal with potential asbestos issues, which we knew nothing about. We hired certified asbestos removal to test our property. We found out we had asbestos in our walls. James gave us competitive pricing. The work got done on time and within our budget. We highly recommend certified to all looking for asbestos removal work.

Thanks to Peter and his team for doing the asbestos removal within my house. We were planning to do some renovations prior to moving in, but we discovered we had asbestos in our home. Peter came by to give us a quote. His pricing was reasonable, but most importantly, we had confidence in Peter and his team that they would do good and clean job. I recommend using Peter and his team to anyone needing asbestos removal.
