WHAT IS ASBESTOS?
Asbestos is a fibrous material often used as a part of the construction of homes and buildings from the 1950s to the 1990s. Made of 6 naturally occurring minerals, its popularity was due to its durability and resistance to fire and other chemical breakdowns. Asbestos is known for causing cancer and other harmful health problems. If you live in an older home, you may be at risk for asbestos exposure when disturbed. If you’re planning on renovating your home in Muskoka, safe asbestos removal is the best option to keep your family and any workers safe from exposure.

If you attempt to handle the removal yourself, you may expose yourself to potentially harmful compounds, which might lead to health difficulties and, in the worst-case scenario, catastrophic effects now or in the future. Never inspect the area on your own; always consult an asbestos professional from SoundSeals Insulation. We arrive at the location to evaluate and analyze the situation before beginning the disposal process.
WHAT IS THE ASBESTOS REMOVAL PROCESS?
Asbestos is dangerous once disturbed or can also break down on its own with age. If you are doing any maintenance or demolition to your home, the disturbance releases the asbestos fibres, and they become airborne. Once airborne, the fibres can be inhaled or ingested and lead to health problems. We are trained to safely test for, and remove asbestos from your home.
-
Identification is necessary before removal. One of our experts will come to your home and identify any asbestos-containing rooms.A sample will be taken to determine whether or not the material is in good condition. If there is any flaking or damage, removal will be required.
-
When our team arrives, containment is our first step. Wearing full hazmat protective gear, we will seal off the entire section of your home containing asbestos products with industrial-grade plastic to keep fibres from escaping.
-
To create negative air, we use air moving equipment such as HEPA filters and large fans so there is no contamination of the rest of the home.
-
Before we begin the removal, an environmental consultant inspects the contained area. After full approval, we remove the asbestos products and bag them.
-
Once everything has been removed, we dispose of the materials safely and as environmentally friendly as possible while following the proper guidelines.
-
An environmental consultant then returns to ensure everything has been removed and your property is good to go.
