History of Asbestos Use in Edmonton's Construction

The Rise of Asbestos in Construction

Asbestos was once a popular material in the construction industry due to its heat resistance and insulating properties. In Edmonton, like many other cities, asbestos was widely used in buildings constructed during the mid-20th century. This included applications in insulation, floor tiles, ceiling tiles, and other building materials.

Common Uses of Asbestos in Edmonton Buildings

In Edmonton’s commercial and residential buildings, asbestos was commonly found in various materials such as pipe insulation, roofing shingles, vinyl floor tiles, and spray-applied fireproofing. These materials were often used in construction projects throughout the 1950s to the 1980s.

The Shift Towards Asbestos Abatement

As awareness of the health risks associated with asbestos exposure grew, regulations were implemented to reduce its use and mandate its removal from buildings. In Edmonton, this led to a significant increase in the demand for professional asbestos abatement services, as property owners sought to comply with these new safety standards.

Modern Implications for Property Owners

For property owners in Edmonton, especially those with older buildings, asbestos abatement is not just a regulatory requirement but a critical safety measure. Ensuring your property is asbestos-free is essential to safeguarding the health of occupants and complying with local laws.

Asbestos Testing and Environmental Studies

Before any demolition or renovation work begins, we conduct preliminary asbestos testing. Samples are collected from various building materials and analyzed in accredited laboratories to confirm the presence of asbestos. Additionally, we perform comprehensive environmental studies to assess the extent of asbestos contamination and other potential hazards, such as soil contamination and air quality issues.

Safe Asbestos Removal and Disposal

Once the presence of asbestos is confirmed, we develop a customized abatement plan that prioritizes safety and compliance. Our team follows strict protocols to remove asbestos-containing materials safely, minimizing disruption to your property. We also handle the disposal of asbestos waste in accordance with all local and federal regulations, ensuring that it is disposed of at licensed facilities.

Site Cleanup and Post-Abatement Verification

After the asbestos removal process is complete, we conduct a thorough site cleanup to ensure that your property is safe and ready for re-occupancy. This includes post-abatement air quality testing to verify that all asbestos fibers have been effectively removed. We provide you with clearance certifications and detailed reports to confirm that the area is asbestos-free.

Asbestos Abatement in Commercial Building

One of our recent projects involved the asbestos abatement of a commercial building in downtown Edmonton. The building, constructed in the 1960s, had extensive asbestos insulation in its mechanical systems. Our team safely removed all asbestos materials, allowing the property owner to proceed with their renovation plans without delay.

Complex Abatement in Occupied Buildings

We also successfully completed a complex asbestos abatement project in an occupied multi-residential building in Edmonton. By carefully coordinating with the building management and residents, we were able to remove asbestos materials without disrupting daily operations, ensuring the safety and comfort of all occupants.
