Safe Asbestos Removal Services in Ottawa
Whether you are buying a new home or renovating an old property, asbestos removal is essential. Before you begin your task, consult O’Reilly Brothers for asbestos removal in Ottawa.
Asbestos was once a common building material. But over time, as asbestos fibres crumbled, they turned into fine, inhalable particles. These particles posed significant health risks for those who lived and worked nearby. Some vermiculite insulation may also contain asbestos.
Learn More About the Process
If you are planning to renovate an old structure, you may want to schedule an asbestos testing. The following are why you should let our professionals help you with asbestos removal:
• HARMS YOUR HEALTH
Fibres from this material are extremely harmful. Exposure to this substance can lead to a number of serious health conditions (asbestosis, mesothelioma, and lung cancer).
• WIDELY PRESENT
Many commercial and residential buildings contain massive amounts of asbestos. One needs to have both expertise and experience to handle hazardous materials on that scale.
• ASBESTOS REMOVAL REQUIRED BY LAW
In some cases, removal of this substance is a requirement by law. For instance, if you plan to move into an old building, you need to perform an asbestos inspection. If its presence is detected, you will have to get the area cleaned before you move in.

Replacement Insulation
Asbestos insulation was the biggest source of asbestos exposure for workers in the 20th century. It remains a toxic hazard to date. Many buildings once used asbestos-based insulation, mostly because of asbestos’ flame-retardant properties. So, after we remove asbestos-based insulation from your site, O’Reilly Brothers will help you choose appropriate replacement insulation.
We offer a variety of certified flame-retardant products, including polyurethane-based insulation. This product is UFFI-free and safe to use.
