Asbestos Awareness

If you work in construction or a similar industry, you may encounter asbestos occasionally. Before you call for asbestos removal from your Ottawa property,learn more about where it can be found:

• Roofing shingles
• Siding
• Soundproofing tiles
• Walls and ceilings
• Attic insulation
• Hot water piping or boilers
• Furnace ducts
• Furnace rooms and door gaskets

Before completing tasks around any of these areas, call us for inspection and/or abatement.

The Abatement Process

If you suspect the presence of asbestos in your building, contact O’Reilly Brothers, a licensed abatement provider. We perform a full inspection of your property and ensure your safety as well as that of our crew. Our procedure includes:

• Area enclosure
• Encapsulation
• Complete removal

We also refer to these options as Type I, II, or III removal. The abatement we choose depends on how much asbestos we find on site, friable or non-friable, as well as the complexity of the job.

Once we seal the area to protect the public, we remove asbestos waste via doubled poly bags and take all bags off site for approved disposal. We ensure that your property is completely cleared of asbestos before we finish any job.

Replacement Insulation

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.
