Contractors are responsible for protecting their workers from asbestos exposure. If you're a homeowner planning to reno or demo a home built before 1990, you have a responsibility too. Found in more than 3,000 pre-1990s building materials, asbestos can be hiding in plain sight. Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause serious health problems, lung diseases, and cancer. So before work starts, talk to your contractor to identify any asbestos in your home and have it properly removed, for the health and safety of everyone working on your project.

Anyone who repairs, renovates, or demolishes older buildings in B.C. is at risk of inhaling asbestos fibres. Found in dozens of items in older buildings, asbestos breaks down into small fibres as it ages or when it is disturbed. Touching or moving it releases the fibres into the air, where they can linger for hours.

The presence of mold is one of the most chronic problems we encounter and its effects on health can be very serious. That’s why Coast BC Hazmat offers indoor air analysis carried out to discover the existence of spores that betray the presence of mold in the building.
