Understanding Asbestos: Isolation, Abatement, and Removal

Asbestos, a once-common building material, is now widely recognized for its health risks. When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed, they can release harmful fibres into the air, posing risks to both residential and commercial properties. Addressing asbestos-related issues requires expertise, training, and a dedicated approach to ensure safety and compliance with regulatory standards. WINMAR® is a trusted leader in property restoration, with over 45 years of experience serving Canadians nationwide.

What is Asbestos?

Asbestos refers to a group of naturally occurring minerals that were widely used in construction for their fire resistance, insulation properties, and durability. Commonly found in homes, offices, and other buildings constructed before the 1990s, asbestos-containing materials can be found in insulation, flooring, roofing, and pipe coatings.

Why is Asbestos Dangerous?

When asbestos-containing materials are disturbed due to renovations, natural disasters, or wear and tear, the fibres can become airborne. Inhaling these fibres can lead to serious health issues, including asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. It is essential to handle asbestos with care and precision, employing trained and certified professionals to mitigate risks.
