ASBESTOS AIR QUALITY TESTING
Air quality testing is a very important step in the restoration process. While undisturbed asbestos is not a threat, disturbed asbestos on the other hand can be very dangerous. If you believe an asbestos containing material has been disturbed and released its fibers into the air an air quality test should be performed, it will let you know exactly how safe the air you're breathing is. An asbestos air quality test should be done before, during and after a restoration project.
ASBESTOS AIR MONITORING
During an asbestos abatement, air quality is monitored to gauge the risk level and ensure the safety of the workers as well as the public. This is typically done by a third party and not the asbestos removal contractor. Make sure when you are getting a quote for asbestos removal that air quality monitoring is included.
ASBESTOS AIR QUALITY/AIR MONITORING CONSULTANT
An asbestos air quality/monitoring consultant is the person that performs daily monitoring during the asbestos abatement process in order to achieve asbestos clearance which is required by law in most regions.
ASBESTOS INSPECTION
An asbestos inspection should always be performed by a certified professional because they have the proper training and equipment for the procedure. An asbestos inspection will begin with a visual inspection of the area and building materials involved. Certified inspectors know what to look for and how to examine materials with minimal disruption to the material. A typical inspection can take up to three hours depending on the scope of work. If the inspector suspects
that a material or materials may contain asbestos, they will then carefully extract a sample to take to a government approved testing facility for further analysis.
ASBESTOS INSPECTION COST AND TIMELINE
An asbestos inspection can typically take anywhere from half an hour to three hours depending on different factors such as area size, area accessibility and
the number of materials involved. Contact us today for location and situation specific pricing.
ASBESTOS TESTING
Typically, there are 2 types of tests for asbestos. An air quality test and a materials test. The air quality test takes samples of the surrounding air and determines what amount of asbestos is in the air. A materials test is when an inspector carefully extracts a small sample of the materials in question and takes them to a government approved testing facility for further analysis. Test results can typically take up to a week. An asbestos test might be conducted for a number of reasons such as, but not limited to:
Uncontrolled asbestos release/exposure- An uncontrolled release of asbestos fibers is not uncommon. The renovation of a building or the demolition of materials inside of a building can uncover many surprises that couldn’t have been foreseen. This type of release can be the most dangerous because the proper Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is rarely on the person being exposed. If you uncover something that looks like it may contain asbestos, stop work immediately and contact a certified asbestos professional to assess the situation and administer tests where required.
Pre Renovation test- If you are thinking of a renovation in your house or commercial building, an asbestos test should always be step number 1 for the safety of all people involved. Depending on the year of the building, asbestos can be found in roofing materials, flooring materials and everything in between.
Controlled asbestos release/exposure- During an asbestos abatement conducted by certified asbestos professionals, air quality testing and monitoring is performed
throughout the project to ensure the safety of the tradespeople and the public.
Some websites recommend testing for asbestos in buildings built before 1990 however, there were still building materials sold in the 1990’s that contained
asbestos so we recommend testing for pre 2000 buildings. This includes both residential and commercial.

Only qualified technicians will be allowed to enter the contained areas until the removal is complete. Regular progress updates will be provided throughout the process.

ASBESTOS INFORMATION
Asbestos is a naturally occuring, fibrous material that can be found in soil and rocks. Humans have been extracting and utilizing asbestos for thousands of years and for many different purposes. Asbestos has been used in numerous building materials over the last 200 years because of its amazing strengthening and insulating capabilities. In the 1970’s studies and tests performed on asbestos resulted in findings that devastated the construction industry- Asbestos is extremely harmful to humans when they are exposed to the fibers. The effects of exposure include, but are not limited to, lung cancer and can take many years to surface. Because of this there are still approximately 100,000 people that die every year because of direct exposure to the material.
There are many building materials that can potentially contain asbestos and because of that it is highly recommended that you have your building tested for asbestos before commencing any type of demolition work. This includes both residential and commercial buildings. The cost of a test is very reasonable and will ensure the safety of your family and/or employees. Asbestos can be found in roofing materials, flooring materials and almost everything in between.

DANGERS OF ASBESTOS
Asbestos contains harmful fibers that can attach themselves deep in the lungs and cause long-term health hazards. Mesothelioma (cancer of the lining of the chest or abdominal cavity), Asbestosis (scarring of the lungs making breathing difficult) and Lung Cancer are a few examples of what asbestos can cause. It is believed that there are no safe levels of exposure to asbestos. The following are examples of common building materials that are known to contain asbestos:
Vermiculite in attic insulation layered with wood chip, batt, or blown in insulation
Drywall joint compound or joint cement
Ceiling texture (usually popcorn ceiling or knockdown),
Ceiling tiles
Floor tiles and some carpets (paper backing or glue)
Stucco and Plaster
Insulation
Duct wrapping around pipes, furnaces, heating vents etc.
Sprayed paint and coatings
There are three (3) risk levels when dealing with asbestos:
Low Risk - Minimal protection required with asbestos abatement procedures followed
Moderate Risk - Full protection and asbestos abatement procedures followed
High Risk - Extra protection required and asbestos abatement procedures followed
TYPES OF ASBESTIFORM
Asbestos is the commercial name as well as the legal name for Asbestiform, a classification of a variety of minerals.
Chrysotile
Amosite
Crocidolite
Anthophyllite
Tremolite
Actinolite
What percentage of asbestos is safe?
No percentage of asbestos is considered safe. Always proceed with caution when there is a suspicion of asbestos and be sure to contact a trained and certified professional for consulting.
Smoking cigarettes increases your risk of Lung Cancer, however, it is compounded with asbestos exposure. Get a chest Xray to find out if you are healthy.
If you are ever in doubt about a material being ACM ( Asbestos Containing Material ), get it tested before disturbing it. By disturbing you may release deadly fibers and risk asbestos exposure.
During an Asbestos Abatement Air Testing are required to test the air before, during and after the asbestos abatement. This is most often done by a third party, separate from the contractor.
