Asbestos Assessment

It’s extremely important (and required by law) to test a building for asbestos before demolition. There are federal (and sometimes provincial and local) regulations to follow for demolition when a certain threshold of asbestos-containing materials (ACM) are found in a building.

Mold
Testing

Mold spores are another common safety hazard that can be released during demolition, and should also be tested for prior to starting a demolition job. While most mold spores are probably harmless, some can be extremely dangerous if breathed in.
