UNMASK THE HIDDEN THREAT: 

Why Asbestos Testing Matters

Asbestos may seem like a relic of the past, but its dangers remain very real. This naturally occurring mineral contains microscopic fibers that, when inhaled, can cause devastating health problems like lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis. The scariest part? Asbestos often goes undetected until it's too late.


That's where essential asbestos testing comes in. It acts as your first line of defense, uncovering the presence of this hazardous material before it poses a threat.

HOW IT WORKS

Our Testing Process

We adhere to these essential steps, the British Columbia Regulation 296/97, and the British Columbia Regulation 6.59 to 6.69, to guarantee the safest testing methods:

01

Sampling

We take samples from areas of concern and submit them to a certified laboratory for a thorough analysis.

02

Asbestos and Lead

The laboratory determines if asbestos or lead are present and, if so, reports on the percentage and type of contamination.

03

Recommendation

Based on the results of the report, we'll recommend a course of action with regards to our asbestos, lead and mold removal services.

(Any amount of asbestos over 0.5% is considered unsafe and requires action).
