Asbestos Mitigation Process
1. Asbestos Risk Assessment
We begin by inspecting the site to locate and evaluate asbestos-containing materials (ACMs). Our team identifies any risks, assesses the condition of the material, and recommends the best mitigation strategy based on the building’s use and occupancy.
2. Containment & Encapsulation
If removal isn’t the right approach, we seal or encapsulate the asbestos material to prevent fibre release. This includes installing containment barriers, air filtration systems, or applying approved sealants that safely lock fibres in place.
3. Ongoing Monitoring & Documentation
We offer air quality monitoring, visual inspections, and provide all compliance documentation for WorkSafeBC or building management. This ensures ongoing safety and allows you to move forward with renovations, tenancy, or operations without risk.
What is Asbestos Mitigation?
Mitigation is the process of safely isolating, sealing, or encapsulating asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) to prevent them from becoming airborne.
This is different from removal - but equally important in protecting building occupants and meeting legal requirements.
Asbestos mitigation is commonly used in:
Older buildings:
awaiting full renovation.
Tenanted properties:
with limited access.
Spaces where ACMs are stable
but present.
Projects requiring phased or deferred abatement.
We assess the condition and location of ACMs and recommend mitigation strategies such as containment barriers, encapsulation, or air monitoring - depending on the level of risk and use of space.
Asbestos Mitigation Service Includes:
Site assessment and asbestos hazard evaluation
Safe isolation or sealing of asbestos-containing materials
Installation of negative air pressure systems
Surface encapsulation with approved sealants
Ongoing air quality monitoring (optional)
Documentation for WorkSafeBC compliance
When is Mitigation the right choice?
Mitigation is ideal when:
Full asbestos removal isn’t immediately scheduled.
Renovations are staged in phases.
The ACM is in good condition but must be monitored.
You’re managing commercial tenant turnover or property transitions.
It’s a flexible, safe solution that allows property use to continue while planning future removal. Our team ensures every mitigation plan is tailored to your building’s unique layout, occupancy, and budget.

Our Abatement Process
1. Inspection & Lab Testing
We start with a professional site assessment and collect material samples. These are sent to a certified lab to confirm the presence and type of asbestos.
2. Containment & Preparation
We seal off affected areas using industry-standard containment systems and negative air pressure to protect surrounding spaces during removal.
3. Safe Removal & Disposal
Our licensed technicians remove asbestos safely, following WorkSafeBC protocols. Waste is double-bagged and disposed of at approved hazardous waste facilities.
4. Final Clearance & Report
A final inspection ensures the site is safe. We can arrange third-party air clearance testing and provide full documentation for your records or compliance.
Types of Asbestos-Containing Materials We Remove
Drywall and Joint Compound
In homes built before 1990, drywall and joint compound may contain asbestos. If walls are cut, sanded, or removed during renovations, asbestos fibers can be released into your home’s air. Our team is trained to safely handle and remove asbestos-containing drywall to keep your family safe.
Pipe Lagging and Pipe Insulation
Asbestos was commonly used to insulate pipes in older homes. The material, called pipe lagging, helps prevent heat loss but can release asbestos fibers if disturbed. We provide safe asbestos removal for pipe insulation to prevent exposure during plumbing repairs or renovations.
Black Mastic and Adhesives (Tile Mastic)
Black mastic is a glue often used to attach vinyl tiles and other flooring materials. Many older types of black mastic contain asbestos. Removing flooring without proper care can release harmful fibers. We use professional techniques to safely remove black mastic during asbestos removal projects in Vancouver.
Ceiling Tiles
Many ceiling tiles installed before the 1990s contain asbestos. If these tiles are cracked, damaged, or removed, asbestos dust can spread through your home. Our asbestos removal experts will assess and safely remove ceiling tiles to protect your indoor air quality.
Roofing and Siding (Including Asbestos Siding)
Asbestos was once added to roofing and siding products for durability. Today, old asbestos-containing roofing and siding materials can break down over time, releasing fibers. Our team safely removes and disposes of asbestos roofing and siding as part of our comprehensive asbestos removal services.
Other Materials We Remove
We also remove asbestos from other less common materials sometimes found in older Vancouver homes. These can include fiberboard, vermiculite insulation, boiler parging, asbestos duct tape, textured coatings, and more. If you are unsure about any material in your home, our asbestos removal experts can safely assess and handle it.
