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 Orangeville
- 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.
Questions to ask asbestos abatement contractors before you hire
- Where do you think the water is coming from, and how did you confirm it?
- Do you recommend interior or exterior waterproofing for my home, and why?
- Should a structural engineer look at these cracks or this wall?
- Does this work need a permit from my municipality?
- Is your warranty transferable if I sell the house, and what does it cover?
- How will you restore the landscaping, driveway or basement finishes afterwards?
- If you find mould or asbestos, how will it be handled and by whom?
Asbestos removal permits in Ontario
Some asbestos removal work needs a permit or has to meet local bylaws. Rules vary by municipality, so ask your pro whether a permit is needed and who will apply for it — and check with your city or town if you’re unsure.
Licensing in Ontario
General contracting and renovation
Renovating an existing home generally doesn’t require an HCRA builder licence: HCRA says renovations or upgrades typically don’t make a home “new”. Ontario advises checking references, WSIB coverage and trade certificates before you hire.

This type of work often has to be done by a licensed or certified trade. Ask to see licences and proof of insurance before work starts.

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.
