Why is asbestos sheet flooring or linoleum so dangerous?… it’s the paper backing ⚠️ The paper layer has a very high concentration of asbestos and when it’s removed it separates right at this layer releasing a ton of fibres into the air 😱 Here you can see some residual paper left over after an attempted abatement by another company 🤔 When abatement is complete there must be no material left ✅ Learn more at https://www.ecoabate.com/asbestos . . . @renovationfind #renovationfindcertified @homestars #homestarsverified #asbestos #asbestosflooring #asbestostesting #calgary #calgaryasbestos #calgaryrealestate #calgaryrestoration #calgaryabatement #yycasbestos #airtesting #asbestosinspection #asbestosremoval (at Eco Abate INC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRRwwSBs1_P/?utm_medium=tumblr

What does vermiculite look like? 🔍 Here we can see some vermiculite loose fill on top of a ceiling ⚠️ But it’s not just in attics 🤔 It can be in block walls, mixed into fire spray, and even in the plaster base coat 😱 Make sure you get a proper inspection before you buy or renovate!

Did you know floor levelling compound can be asbestos-containing? 😮 The material is hard to identify because it’s used under hard finished surfaces like tile 🔨 But once it’s time to remove the flooring it’s very friable and dangerous ⚠️ Learn more by contacting @ecoabate at https://ecoabate.com . . . @renovationfind @homestars #renovationfindcertified #homestarsverified #asbestos #calgaryasbestos #yycasbestos #asbestostestingcalgary #asbestostesting #calgarycommercialrealestate #calgaryrealestate #calgaryconstruction #calgaryrenovations #calgarysafety (at Eco Abate INC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKjeuk6J0-4/?igshid=os63ki3k5xjv

What do you think of when you hear asbestos? 🤔 Most will think something like this insulated heat exchanger at a health care facility 👍 While you would be correct, it’s easy to dismiss other products such as drywall compound, ceiling texture, flooring and exterior stucco 😅 Make sure you get your property tested by a professional!

Transite board around stand alone fireplace in a basement 🏠 As a great insulator and fireproofing material, asbestos was used very frequently in chimney and fireplace installations 🤓 make sure your testing professional is familiar with these systems and performed the proper inspection before buying a home! #ecoabate @homestars @renovationfind . . . #asbestostesting #asbestos #asbestostestingcalgary #calgaryasbestos #yycasbestos #asbestoscalgary #calgaryasbestos #ecoabate #residentialasbestos (at Northwest Calgary, Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDKMtWAJDEU/?igshid=jo8aupthmasg

Two layers of Stucco on the outside of an apartment building prior to demolition 🏚 When sampling for asbestos content it is important to core through the materials to ensure all potential layers are assessed! Unfortunately another company had only tested the top layer prior to purchase and had not identified the asbestos, leading to a huge setback and unexpected costs for the developer 😬... Before you buy, make sure your assessment is accurate by calling @ecoabate . . . @renovationfind @homestars #asbestos #asbestostesting #asbestosdemolition #asbestosinspection #asbestossampling #asbestoscalgary #calgaryasbestos #calgary #safetyfirst #calgaryrealestateagents #calgaryhomes (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJoU-4JTUn/?igshid=1qcgqtu3h4ho4

Awesome review from a client we were able to help when another company had missed materials during a survey 😅... asbestos surveys must be thorough and well documented to prevent uncertainty in contractors and city inspectors that rely on the information to keep workers safe! 👷‍♂️ Read the full review on HomeStars: homestars.com/s/_9eFkA @homestars @renovationfind . . . #asbestostesting #asbestoscalgary #calgaryasbestos #asbestosinspection #asbestos #asbestossampling #asbestossurvey #asbestossurveys #asbestosawareness #asbestoslife #yycasbestos #asbestosyyc #homestars #homestarsreview #homestarswinner #renovationfind #renovationfindcertified (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CB57BxKpooW/?igshid=jd0ses7509k5

Asbestos shingles hiding under a new roof... 🤨 very sneaky but not uncommon in homes with multiple renovations. Sometimes it was easier to just throw a new layer on top than deal with the asbestos materials. On the other hand, maybe no one knew at the time 🤔 That’s why we always recommend a full asbestos survey with @ecoabate 😁 . . . #ecoabate #asbestostesting #calgaryasbestos #asbestoscalgary #yycasbestos #asbestosyyc #asbestossampling #asbestossurvey #asbestosinspection #asbestos #safetyfirst @homestars @renovationfind (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B73nMCcJhAg/?igshid=kr05tmmmv4kc

Zonolite insulation bags hanging in an attic space with vermiculite insulation covered by a second layer of cellulose 🔍 This particular brand of insulation is known to have been sourced from the Libby Mine in Montana, USA, and contain traces of Tremolote and Actinolite asbestos contamination. What’s interesting is there are also traces of other asbestiform minerals (Richterite and Winchite) that were not included in the list of “Asbestos Minerals” until later on. This is because they were not commonly used in construction to the same degree as Chrysotile and Amosite, despite having similar heath effects when inhaled 👨‍⚕️ Make sure your home is tested by @ECOABATE . . . #asbestos #ecoabate #asbestostesting #asbestosyyc #yycasbestos #asbestoscalgary #calgaryasbestos #asbestosattic #vermiculite #science #environmental #environmentalhealth @renovationfind @homestars (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7JLUt6JXuM/?igshid=7cln8c9ky6aq

Before and after glove bag removal of pipe insulation from a Mechanical room 👌 Pipe elbows in Canada are typically 20-60% Chrysotile while the straight runs are mainly fibreglass. Abatement crews can safely and effectively remove these elbows and allow mechanical contractors to perform their duties 🔧👷‍♂️ #ecoabate . . . #asbestoscalgary #asbestos #calgaryasbestos #yycasbestos #asbestosyyc #asbestosremoval #asbestosawareness #asbestosairmonitoring #airtesting #airquality #safetyfirst #canadiansafety (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6Dv9YFJPNY/?igshid=1rqkdrvdludi0

Asbestos duct wrap identified in single family home 🏠 This stuff is very friable so removal must be done with moderate-risk glove bag procedures to ensure any released fibres are effectively contained. This particular sample came back at 60% Chrysotile and required removal before the home was demolished. #ecoabate . . . #asbestos #asbestoscalgary #calgaryasbestos #calgaryasbestostesting #asbestosyyc #yycasbestos #asbestostesting #predemoasbestos #predemo #predemolition (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/B58LdjOJJTL/?igshid=1l0yb1e892qjt
