Professional Asbestos Removal Services in Kelowna – Safe & Certified

What is Asbestos, and Why is Professional Removal Crucial in Kelowna?

Asbestos is a hazardous mineral fiber once widely used in construction for its heat resistance. However, when disturbed, asbestos releases tiny fibers that, if inhaled, can cause mesothelioma, asbestosis, and lung cancer.

In Kelowna, many older homes (especially those built before 1990) contain asbestos in:

• Insulation (around pipes, furnaces and heating systems)

• Vermiculite Insulation

• Vinyl floor tiles & adhesives

• Popcorn ceilings & drywall joint compound

• Cement and Plaster

• Roofing & siding materials

**DIY asbestos removal is extremely dangerous and illegal in BC without proper certification. Our licensed Kelowna asbestos removal team follows strict containment and disposal protocols to keep your family safe.

And we remove it all, just call:

How to Tell If You Need Asbestos Removal in Your Kelowna Property

Asbestos is a hidden danger in many Kelowna homes and buildings. If you notice any of these signs, do not disturb the material—call a licensed asbestos removal company immediately:

Your Home Was Built Before 1990

• Most asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) were used in construction before the 1990s.

You’re Planning Renovations or Demolition

• Disturbing asbestos during renovations can release deadly fibers into the air.

Crumbling or Damaged Insulation, Tiles, or Popcorn Ceilings

• Aging asbestos materials become brittle and pose a higher risk.

Unexplained Respiratory Issues Among Occupants

• Persistent coughing or breathing problems may indicate asbestos exposure.

If you suspect asbestos in your Kelowna home or workplace, do not attempt removal yourself—BC law requires certified professionals. Contact us today for a free asbestos inspection.
