What to know about Asbestos removal
Asbestos removal, also called asbestos abatement, is the controlled removal, sealing or enclosure of building materials that contain asbestos. Health Canada notes that before 1990, asbestos was mainly used for insulating buildings and homes, and the Quebec government says products containing asbestos were used by the construction industry mainly between 1930 and 1990. Many older houses, duplexes and triplexes across Canada fall in that window.

How to choose asbestos abatement contractors in Moncton
- Choose a contractor who finds the source of the water before recommending a fix, whether that's grading, eavestroughs, cracks or drainage.
- Ask them to explain the difference between interior and exterior waterproofing for your home, and why they recommend one.
- For foundation cracks that are wide, growing or uneven, ask whether a structural engineer should assess them first.
- For mould, asbestos or radon, hire professionals qualified for that specific work, and don't disturb suspect materials yourself.
- Get a written quote that lists excavation, membranes, weeping tile, sump pumps and restoration of landscaping or finishes.

What to photograph before anyone starts work
An hour with a phone on the day before demolition is the cheapest insurance on the project. Most of what you will need later is invisible by the end of week one, and nobody can remember what the hallway looked like.
