Your asbestos problem needs to be handled strategically and professionally. At Brick Asbestos & Demolition, we rely on years of experience and specialized equipment to mitigate the risk of this contaminant, keeping you, your property, and others safe.
Our Abatement & Removal Process
Initial Assessment
Our first step is always to assess your property and determine which areas might have potential asbestos-containing material. This is crucial to developing an effective removal plan and ensuring everyone stays safe.
Specimen Sampling
We don’t tolerate guesswork when it comes to asbestos. That’s why we take samples from our customers’s properties, then send them to laboratories to confirm the presence of asbestos and determine the appropriate removal methods.
Risk Assessment
Our team always conducts risk assessments upfront to evaluate the extent of the contamination and assess the potential dangers. This allows us to develop a highly tailored removal strategy that minimizes exposure and health hazards.
Preparation & PPE
Before starting, we’ll implement safety measures and don personal protective equipment (PPE). This protects our workers and others from asbestos exposure throughout the removal process.
Asbestos Removal & Disposal
Our trained professionals use specialized techniques and equipment to safely remove asbestos-containing materials. We also rely on careful disposal methods to ensure the waste doesn’t contaminate the surrounding environment.
Inspection & Documentation
After removal, we’ll conduct a final inspection to verify that all asbestos-containing materials have been effectively removed from the property. We’ll also document the removal process to ensure full compliance with the latest regulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral fiber that was once widely used in various construction materials due to its strength, heat resistance, and insulating properties.
However, we now know that prolonged exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to serious health issues, including lung diseases such as asbestosis, lung cancer, and mesothelioma. Due to these health risks, the use of asbestos has been heavily regulated and phased out in many countries.
A professional asbestos inspection is the best way to determine if your home is contaminated. Your accredited inspector will assess the property’s materials and take samples for testing in a laboratory to confirm the presence of asbestos fibers.
The cost of asbestos removal can vary depending on factors such as the extent of contamination, the type of materials containing asbestos, and the location of the property.
On average, asbestos removal costs can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. To learn what your property’s removal process will cost, schedule an inspection with Brick Asbestos & Demolition today.
Whether your insurance policy covers asbestos removal depends on the terms of your specific policy and the circumstances surrounding the removal.
Some insurance policies may cover asbestos removal if it's deemed necessary to mitigate a covered loss, such as a fire or water damage. However, coverage can vary, and you’ll need to review your policy carefully or consult with your insurance provider to understand what is covered and any limitations or exclusions that may apply.
